A CloudFormation AWS::EKS::Cluster.

Creates an Amazon EKS control plane.

The Amazon EKS control plane consists of control plane instances that run the Kubernetes software, such as etcd and the API server. The control plane runs in an account managed by AWS , and the Kubernetes API is exposed by the Amazon EKS API server endpoint. Each Amazon EKS cluster control plane is single tenant and unique. It runs on its own set of Amazon EC2 instances.

The cluster control plane is provisioned across multiple Availability Zones and fronted by an Elastic Load Balancing Network Load Balancer. Amazon EKS also provisions elastic network interfaces in your VPC subnets to provide connectivity from the control plane instances to the nodes (for example, to support kubectl exec , logs , and proxy data flows).

Amazon EKS nodes run in your AWS account and connect to your cluster's control plane over the Kubernetes API server endpoint and a certificate file that is created for your cluster.

In most cases, it takes several minutes to create a cluster. After you create an Amazon EKS cluster, you must configure your Kubernetes tooling to communicate with the API server and launch nodes into your cluster. For more information, see Managing Cluster Authentication and Launching Amazon EKS nodes in the Amazon EKS User Guide .

resourcesVpcConfig

Type: IResolvable | ResourcesVpcConfigProperty

The VPC configuration that's used by the cluster control plane.

Amazon EKS VPC resources have specific requirements to work properly with Kubernetes. For more information, see Cluster VPC Considerations and Cluster Security Group Considerations in the Amazon EKS User Guide . You must specify at least two subnets. You can specify up to five security groups, but we recommend that you use a dedicated security group for your cluster control plane.

Updates require replacement of the SecurityGroupIds and SubnetIds sub-properties.

roleArn

Type: string

The Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of the IAM role that provides permissions for the Kubernetes control plane to make calls to AWS API operations on your behalf.

For more information, see Amazon EKS Service IAM Role in the Amazon EKS User Guide .

tags?

Type: CfnTag[] (optional)

The metadata that you apply to the cluster to assist with categorization and organization.

Each tag consists of a key and an optional value, both of which you define. Cluster tags don't propagate to any other resources associated with the cluster.

You must have the eks:TagResource and eks:UntagResource permissions for your IAM principal to manage the AWS CloudFormation stack. If you don't have these permissions, there might be unexpected behavior with stack-level tags propagating to the resource during resource creation and update.

version?

Type: string (optional)

The desired Kubernetes version for your cluster.

If you don't specify a value here, the default version available in Amazon EKS is used.

The default version might not be the latest version available.

addDeletionOverride(path)

public addDeletionOverride(path: string): void

Parameters

path string — The path of the value to delete.

Syntactic sugar for addOverride(path, undefined).

addDependsOn(target)

public addDependsOn(target: CfnResource): void

Parameters

target CfnResource

Indicates that this resource depends on another resource and cannot be provisioned unless the other resource has been successfully provisioned.

This can be used for resources across stacks (or nested stack) boundaries and the dependency will automatically be transferred to the relevant scope.

addMetadata(key, value)

public addMetadata(key: string, value: any): void

Parameters

key string
value any

Add a value to the CloudFormation Resource Metadata.

Note that this is a different set of metadata from CDK node metadata; this metadata ends up in the stack template under the resource, whereas CDK node metadata ends up in the Cloud Assembly.](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AWSCloudFormation/latest/UserGuide/metadata-section-structure.html

Note that this is a different set of metadata from CDK node metadata; this metadata ends up in the stack template under the resource, whereas CDK node metadata ends up in the Cloud Assembly.)

addOverride(path, value)

public addOverride(path: string, value: any): void

Parameters

path string — - The path of the property, you can use dot notation to override values in complex types.
value any — - The value.

Adds an override to the synthesized CloudFormation resource.

To add a property override, either use addPropertyOverride or prefix path with "Properties." (i.e. Properties.TopicName).

If the override is nested, separate each nested level using a dot (.) in the path parameter. If there is an array as part of the nesting, specify the index in the path.

To include a literal . in the property name, prefix with a \. In most programming languages you will need to write this as "\\." because the \ itself will need to be escaped.

For example,

cfnResource.addOverride('Properties.GlobalSecondaryIndexes.0.Projection.NonKeyAttributes', ['myattribute']);
cfnResource.addOverride('Properties.GlobalSecondaryIndexes.1.ProjectionType', 'INCLUDE');

would add the overrides

"Properties": {
   "GlobalSecondaryIndexes": [
     {
       "Projection": {
         "NonKeyAttributes": [ "myattribute" ]
         ...
       }
       ...
     },
     {
       "ProjectionType": "INCLUDE"
       ...
     },
   ]
   ...
}

The value argument to addOverride will not be processed or translated in any way. Pass raw JSON values in here with the correct capitalization for CloudFormation. If you pass CDK classes or structs, they will be rendered with lowercased key names, and CloudFormation will reject the template.

addPropertyDeletionOverride(propertyPath)

public addPropertyDeletionOverride(propertyPath: string): void

Parameters

propertyPath string — The path to the property.

Adds an override that deletes the value of a property from the resource definition.

addPropertyOverride(propertyPath, value)

public addPropertyOverride(propertyPath: string, value: any): void

Parameters

propertyPath string — The path of the property.
value any — The value.

Adds an override to a resource property.

Syntactic sugar for addOverride("Properties.<...>", value).

applyRemovalPolicy(policy?, options?)

public applyRemovalPolicy(policy?: RemovalPolicy, options?: RemovalPolicyOptions): void

Parameters

policy RemovalPolicy
options RemovalPolicyOptions

Sets the deletion policy of the resource based on the removal policy specified.

The Removal Policy controls what happens to this resource when it stops being managed by CloudFormation, either because you've removed it from the CDK application or because you've made a change that requires the resource to be replaced.

The resource can be deleted (RemovalPolicy.DESTROY), or left in your AWS account for data recovery and cleanup later (RemovalPolicy.RETAIN).

getAtt(attributeName)

public getAtt(attributeName: string): Reference

Parameters

attributeName string — The name of the attribute.

Returns

Reference

Returns a token for an runtime attribute of this resource.

Ideally, use generated attribute accessors (e.g. resource.arn), but this can be used for future compatibility in case there is no generated attribute.

getMetadata(key)

public getMetadata(key: string): any

Parameters

key string

Returns

any

Retrieve a value value from the CloudFormation Resource Metadata.

Note that this is a different set of metadata from CDK node metadata; this metadata ends up in the stack template under the resource, whereas CDK node metadata ends up in the Cloud Assembly.)

inspect(inspector)

public inspect(inspector: TreeInspector): void

Parameters

inspector TreeInspector — - tree inspector to collect and process attributes.

Examines the CloudFormation resource and discloses attributes.

overrideLogicalId(newLogicalId)

public overrideLogicalId(newLogicalId: string): void

Parameters

newLogicalId string — The new logical ID to use for this stack element.

Overrides the auto-generated logical ID with a specific ID.

toString()

public toString(): string

Returns

string

Returns a string representation of this construct.

protected renderProperties(props)

protected renderProperties(props: { [string]: any }): { [string]: any }

Parameters

props { [string]: any }

Returns

{ [string]: any }
