This document describes details specific to using your existing Amazon EKS cloud with Juju.
See more: Amazon EKS
When using the Amazon EKS cloud with Juju, it is important to keep in mind that it is a (1) Kubernetes cloud and (2) not some other cloud.
See more: Cloud differences in Juju, Kubernetes clouds and Juju
As the differences related to (1) are already documented generically in our Tutorial, How-to guides, and Reference docs, here we record just those that follow from (2).
Notes on add-k8s
Starting with Juju 3.0, because of the fact that the juju client snap is strictly confined but the EKS cloud CLI snap is not, you must run the add-k8s command with the ‘raw’ client. See note in How to add a Kubernetes cloud.
