Update 2025-07-15: These changes have been rolled out to all clusters.
The following updates have been rolled out to all non-production clusters. As usual there are also improvements across various other add-ons, ensuring enhanced performance and security:
- amazon-eks-ami v20250620
- aws-ebs-csi-driver v1.45.1-eksbuild.2
- aws-load-balancer-controller v2.13.3
- We are pleased to announce the (Beta) of Layer 4 (L4) routing support for the Kubernetes Gateway API within the AWS Load Balancer Controller (LBC). This significant enhancement allows users to provision and manage AWS Network Load Balancers (NLBs) for TCP, UDP, and TLS traffic directly from their Kubernetes clusters, leveraging the powerful and extensible Gateway API. The LBC now fully supports the GatewayClass ,Gateway, TCPRoute, UDPRoute, and TLSRoute resources from the Gateway API. Please refer L4Routing for more info.
