Amazon Elastic Kubernetes Service (Amazon EKS) now supports using the Amazon EKS console, and AWS Command Line Interface (CLI) to install and manage the Amazon Elastic Cloud Compute (EC2) Container Storage Interface (CSI) driver. This launch enables a simple experience for attaching a EC2 local instance store to an EKS cluster.
The Amazon EC2 Instance Store CSI driver is a plugin that enables Kubernetes to use EC2 instance store volumes. Instance store volumes provide ephemeral block-level storage that is physically attached to the host computer. The driver manages the lifecycle of these NVMe storage volumes and makes them available as Kubernetes persistent volumes.
This feature is available in all commercial regions. To get started and learn more visit the Amazon EKS documentation.
