This April, we’ve teamed up with AWS to bring you the best practices for Hybrid Cloud Kubernetes with EKS and Weave GitOps. Companies worldwide want the flexibility of hybrid cloud to enable a combination of security and cost savings. The most security-focused workloads are kept in the private cloud. However, the complexity of multiple platforms and Kubernetes management can be frustrating. We are covering a range of topics from ‘How to utilize EKS & Weave GitOps to increase deployment speed’ to ‘What application portability is in the hybrid cloud & how it scales’.

It All Starts with a Kubernetes Distribution

In a hybrid environment where clusters may be operating across public, private clouds, on-premise, and on the edge, choosing a Kubernetes distribution that is common across all environments will significantly reduce complexity down the road.

A common distribution will make sure new versions and patches are available across all your environments, and that the various services that comprise the cluster’s control plane are compatible and can be commonly supported.

Configuration Management and Application Delivery

Having a clear understanding of the runtime configuration of your infrastructure, as well as the workloads running on it, is indispensable. Fast and simple access to this information will be necessary as you choose how and where to locate your various workloads. Especially when things don’t go as planned, you quickly want to understand sizing demands and cluster tenancy.

Weave GitOps allows enterprises to deploy and operate EKS clusters across any target location, offering native GitOps support and visibility, regardless of where your cluster is located.
