[EKS] Managed Windows Node Groups #584

Closed tabern closed 1 year ago

tabern commented 5 years ago

What is this Ability to launch Managed Node Groups using EKS-optimized Windows AMIs.

What is the problem? Today, EKS Managed Node Groups support EKS-Optimized Linux AMIs. Windows support will make it easier to run Windows clusters on Amazon EKS.

Would the recent launch template support on the managed node group resolve/close this roadmap?

saiteja313 commented 4 years ago

Managed Node Group (MNG) with Custom Launch Template does not support Windows at the moment.

This is due to following reasons,

  1. EKS MNG does not add eks:kube-proxy-windows Kubernetes Group access for Windows worker nodes in 'aws-auth' ConfigMap

    • EKS MNG adds only system:bootstrappers and system:nodes Groups at the moment.
    • eks:kube-proxy-windows Group in EKS is binded to system:node-proxier ClusterRole.
      • system:node-proxier ClusterRole allows access to Kubernetes API resources Endpoints, Services and Nodes that are required for node bootstrapping purposes.

  2. Windows nodes take more boostrapping time than linux nodes. Due to this, EKS MNG fails to add below custom labels (EKS restricted) to worker node

    eks.amazonaws.com/nodegroup=<MNG_NAME>
eks.amazonaws.com/nodegroup-image=<AMI_ID>
eks.amazonaws.com/sourceLaunchTemplateId=<LAUNCH_TEMPLATE_ID>
eks.amazonaws.com/sourceLaunchTemplateVersion=<LAUNCH_TEMPLATE_VERSION>

JeffreyGarrett commented 2 years ago

Hello is there any ETA on managed node groups supporting windows?

lukehb commented 2 years ago

How is the WIP going? Should we expect this to be "coming soon" in 2022?

amchech commented 2 years ago

Any news ?

Type1J commented 2 years ago

@akestner It looks like this is a well watched issue. Is there anything that you can tell us?

nascit commented 1 year ago

This is a highly requested feature. Would love to see this in 2023.

EKS now supports Windows containers in managed node groups!
