Birds of a Feather
summary
Discussion covers concrete EKS work: GitOps moves toward a shared gitops engine used by Argo and Flux with external caching and PGP signing for repo commits, CloudFormation support slated for Q1 to mirror API features, and OIDC/provider, control‑plane logging, and regional rollouts targeted next year. Operations notes: one company runs two clusters with 20–40 nodes, backups take hourly etcd snapshots to S3, spot instances give two‑minute termination notices and an official no‑terminate handler exists, and installable pieces like the App Mesh controller and injector ship as Helm charts.
