Canonical and Amazon work together to make Ubuntu worker nodes available for Amazon’s Elastic Kubernetes Services (EKS). This fully-managed service makes it easy to use Kubernetes on AWS, without being an expert in managing Kubernetes clusters.
These images are customised specifically for the EKS service, and are not intended as general OS images. To deploy an EKS cluster, follow the EKS user guide . For guidance on Ubuntu specific use cases for EKS and other AWS services, please refer to our official Cloud Documentation .

The latest Ubuntu worker node AMIs for Kubernetes (N.B. EKS may not be available in some of these regions, check the list of current EKS regions ):
Important: EKS images that support Kubernetes use the default amazon-eks-nodegroup.yaml , as specified in the AWS EKS Console Getting Started Guide . To use Ubuntu EKS images with the nodegroup template in Step 3: Launch and Configure Amazon EKS Worker Nodes, click the 'Launch Workers' link for your your region and Kubernetes release version, and enter the Ubuntu AMI ID for your region, listed on this page, into the field labeled 'NodeImageId'.
This image is customized specifically for the EKS service and is not intended as a general OS image.
