Integrating an EKS Cluster with Other AWS Services

This course will teach you how to integrate AWS Cloud services with secure Kubernetes clusters hosted on AWS. To deliver the microservices at scale and on regular intervals one needs to maintain a robust CI/CD pipeline.

This course will introduce you to AWS integrations with EKS (Elastic Kubernetes Service). In this course, Integrating an EKS Cluster with Other AWS services, you’ll learn to analyze EKS-provided security for microservices. First, you’ll explore how to create a secure EKS cluster with appropriate roles and permissions. Next, you’ll discover multiple AWS services integrations with EKS. Finally, you’ll learn how to build pipeline for microservices and deliver at scale. When you’re finished with this course, you’ll have the skills and knowledge of how to integrate AWS services with EKS.
