Amazon EKS
Amazon EKS is a managed service that simplifies the deployment of Kubernetes on both AWS and on-premises. Kubernetes is an open-source platform designed to automate the management of containerized applications, including their deployment, scaling, and operation. Amazon EKS is certified to comply with Kubernetes standards, which means that applications that run on standard Kubernetes will function with Amazon EKS. By using Amazon EKS, the Kubernetes control plane nodes responsible for critical tasks such as scheduling containers, managing application availability, and storing cluster data are automatically handled, ensuring their availability and scalability.
Amazon EKS offers a managed control plane for Kubernetes, ensuring scalability and high availability across multiple AWS Availability Zones. AWS Controllers for Kubernetes (ACK) allows direct management control over AWS services, while the integrated EKS console provides a single place to visualize, organize and troubleshoot Kubernetes applications. EKS add-ons extend the operational functionality, and managed node groups allow easy creation, scaling, and termination of nodes using the latest EKS-optimized or custom AMIs.
EKS on AWS Outposts enables running low-latency containerized applications on-premises, while EKS with Local Zones and Wavelength provides more options for AWS-managed infrastructure at the edge. Amazon EKS Distro packages open-source Kubernetes software for use on your own on-premises infrastructure, while Amazon EKS Anywhere offers a simpler way to create and manage Kubernetes clusters on your own virtual machines and bare metal servers, providing automation tooling and additional components for production use.
Amazon EKS offers advanced security features and integrations with AWS services and partner solutions, such as IAM for fine-grained access control, Amazon VPC for cluster isolation, and AWS App Mesh for end-to-end visibility and high-availability. It also supports IPv6, AWS Cloud Map for service discovery, and VPC native networking for secure and reliable applications. Additionally, EKS integrates Kubernetes RBAC with AWS IAM, allowing for granular access control over your control plane nodes, and allows for IAM permissions to be assigned to Kubernetes service accounts for pod-level access control.
Amazon EKS provides cost visibility and allocation at both the cluster and individual application level. EC2 instances joining a cluster are automatically tagged with an AWS cost allocation tag, which eliminates the need for a custom tagging policy to understand cluster-level costs. Kubecost is supported by Amazon EKS and allows monitoring of costs by Kubernetes resources such as pods, nodes, and namespaces. Kubecost also provides a breakdown of EKS-associated charges for allocation and cost optimization recommendations based on usage patterns.
Amazon EKS supports Elastic Load Balancing, including ALB, NLB, and Classic Load Balancer. You can use standard Kubernetes cluster load balancing or any Kubernetes-supported ingress controller with your Amazon EKS cluster.
Amazon EKS supports AWS Fargate for serverless compute, eliminating the need to manage servers while allowing for payment based on specified resources per application. Fargate also enhances security through application isolation.
AWS CloudTrail integration with Amazon EKS offers visibility into EKS management operations, including audit history, by providing access to API calls. Kubernetes control plane logs are delivered to Amazon CloudWatch for analysis, auditing, and debugging purposes.
Amazon EKS simplifies Kubernetes version updates by handling the process automatically. Clusters can be updated in place without creating new ones or migrating applications. Amazon EKS supports three stable Kubernetes versions, and updates can be initiated and tracked.
Collaborating with our client, we deeply explored their key pain points and intricacies. To gain a thorough understanding of their pivotal business objectives, we held a series of intensive workshops…

Terragrunt offers benefits such as code reusability, environment isolation, automatic dependency management, and simplified management of complex infrastructures.
As a powerful player in the African market, our client handles multiple socially-oriented missions under one roof. The company is committed to promoting digital innovation and entrepreneurship in Africa.
We worked closely with the client to understand their requirements and developed a customized solution that met their specific needs. Through careful planning and execution, we were able to successfully migrate their pipelines to Azure Pipelines.
The client’s data science team lacked access to GPUs, so they undertook manual ML model training, which led to slower processing time. The Matoffo team used Python and the Ray Tune library to improve processing speed and enable cluster computing in AWS with autoscaling.
Partnering with multiple market-leading healthcare and financial organizations, software vendors, and startups, our client delivers a service that allows companies to define whether their cloud infrastructure complies with modern security standards, such as HIPAA, GDPR, etc.
The Matoffo team decided to use MongoDB Atlas as a hosting platform for MongoDB. This service provides better performance, scalability, and availability. We created a multi-region cluster with proper cluster size and backup policy.
Our primary goal is value delivery for the client by resolving technical challenges and assisting them to achieve their objectives. AWS cloud solutions are great toolset which we use to make it happens, primary by outstanding agility, where companies could scale up cloud resources as needed and significantly decrease time from idea to market as well as seamless adopt rapidly growing tech capabilities to transform their businesses to be competitive in the market.
