AWS and Docker Hub Limits: Smart Strategies for April 2025 Changes
If you are using https://github.com/terraform-aws-modules/terraform-aws-eks module to create your cluster and using in-built role it is creating for the worker nodes, don’t forget to extend it with a new policy to allow ecr:BatchImportUpstreamImage because by default it attaches managed policy arn:aws:iam::aws:policy/AmazonEC2ContainerRegistryPullOnly which doesn’t allow pull-through cache.

Troubleshooting Self Managed Node Groups in Terraform EKS
From the documentation, we have to use CUSTOM value, but it is not true. There is a github issue: #3094. Terraform is not accepting the CUSTOM value. Instead of CUSTOM it has to be value, which the image is based on. In my example, it is AL2023_x86_64_STANDARD.

Efficient Kubernetes Cluster Deployment: Accelerating Setup with EKS Blueprints
Upon reviewing EKS Blueprints, I found myself pondering its relationship with terraform-aws-modules-eks. In reality, EKS Blueprints does not stand in opposition to or compete with terraform-aws-modules-eks; rather, it complements and extends its functionality. EKS Blueprints acts as a valuable enhancement to the standard EKS module, enriching it with additional features and refinements, effectively adding a touch of sweetness and spice to the existing framework.
