Amazon Web Services recently released the Amazon EKS Distro (EKS-D), a service to help users achieve a consistent Kubernetes experience in hybrid cloud scenarios. EKS-D is a distribution of Amazon Web Services‘ Elastic Kubernetes Service (EKS).

When going to the cloud, customers want a consistent experience on-premises and in the cloud for migration or for hybrid cloud setups.

As shown in the figure below, cluster1 and cluster2 represent the Kubernetes clusters deployed in EKS and EKS-D, respectively.

EKS-D ensures the consistency of Kubernetes clusters in a hybrid cloud environment, reducing the cost of cluster operations and maintenance.
