What Problem Does EKS Anywhere Solve?
The chief selling-point of EKS Anywhere is that it allows customers to use Amazon’s Kubernetes software within private data centers. If you like EKS, but you can’t or don’t want to use Amazon’s public cloud infrastructure, EKS Anywhere offers a solution.
This makes EKS Anywhere handy in situations where businesses already have a large on-premises infrastructure that they want to keep using, for instance, or where they believe their total cost of ownership will be lower if they host workloads on their own servers instead of in the public cloud. EKS Anywhere may also prove useful for businesses that need to keep workloads on-premises for compliance reasons.
