EKS Anywhere: Manage your Kubernetes clusters on premises
summary
EKS Anywhere packages EKS Distro plus tooling so customers run Kubernetes fully on-prem: eksctl with an Anywhere plugin boots a temporary management cluster, applies an OVA from S3 and requires ECR and S3 network access, then creates a workload cluster. Bundled components include Flux v2 for GitOps, Cilium, Ubuntu 20.04 or BottleRocket nodes, and a default of 3 control plane, 3 etcd, 2 workers. VMware vSphere 7.0 is supported today, bare‑metal is in private beta, and upgrades and scaling use eksctl or GitOps.
