• Amazon Elastic Kubernetes Service
• aws-iam-authenticator
• kubectl
• eksctl

Connect to an EKS Cluster with kubectl

Update .kube/config with the EKS cluster definition as follows:

aws eks --region us-east-1 update-kubeconfig --name example-eks-cluster

The result is to add a new context to ./kube/config:

Added new context arn:aws:eks:us-east-1:999999999999:cluster/example-eks-cluster to /Users/testuser/.kube/config
