Amazon EKS Development — Production Kubernetes on AWS
EKS cluster engineering — IAM Roles for Service Accounts, autoscaling with Karpenter, GitOps with Argo CD, and the observability stack production Kubernetes demands.
What we build with Amazon EKS
- EKS cluster design with IRSA, Pod Identity, and VPC CNI
- Karpenter for fast, right-sized node autoscaling on Spot and On-Demand
- GitOps with Argo CD or Flux and progressive delivery via Argo Rollouts
- Service mesh with Istio, Linkerd, or AWS App Mesh when justified
- Observability with Prometheus, Grafana, Tempo, Loki, and CloudWatch Container Insights
- Multi-tenant clusters with proper namespace, RBAC, and network policies
Why DiveScale
Built by engineers who ship Amazon EKS in production
EKS gives you Kubernetes without the control-plane burden — but production EKS is still a real engineering effort. DiveScale designs EKS clusters that are secure (IRSA everywhere, network policies, signed images), efficient (Karpenter, Spot, right-sized), and operable (GitOps, observability, runbooks).
We default to GitOps with Argo CD: cluster state lives in Git, drift is detected, and every change is reviewable. No kubectl-from-laptops on production clusters.
And we engineer for cost: Karpenter consolidates and rightsizes nodes; Spot covers stateless workloads; Fargate handles the small workloads that do not justify a node pool. Cluster spend stops being a surprise.
Amazon EKS use cases we deliver
How we deliver
Our Amazon EKS delivery process
- 01
Cluster architecture
Network design, IAM topology, addon strategy, and the IaC layout that holds it all.
- 02
Build with GitOps
Argo CD or Flux from day one — no manual kubectl on production clusters.
- 03
Harden + observe
CIS benchmark, network policies, signed images, OPA/Gatekeeper or Kyverno, and the observability stack.
- 04
Operate or hand off
Runbooks, on-call playbooks, and either ongoing operations or a clean hand-off to your platform team.

ECS for small teams that just want containers and have no Kubernetes expertise to lean on. EKS when you are multi-service, multi-team, or need the ecosystem (Operators, Helm, Argo). We help teams pick honestly.
