There are two main ways that provide entry into a EKS cluster. A service with type LoadBalancer or an ingress. To use an ingress you need to install a controller for it. ALB ingress from the load balancer controller and nginx ingress are two popular options. You define these entry points and k8s handles load balancer creation, security groups, and even DNS creation if using external-dns. EKS can requires a lot of setup up front, but once things are established it becomes very easy to introduce new workloads.
