Amazon EKS customers

StormForge provides automated Kubernetes resource management to help drive operational improvements for organizations across industries. The company successfully implemented EKS Auto Mode to streamline its Kubernetes cluster management. This migration has resulted in significant improvements, including a 65% reduction in cluster upgrade time, a 25% decrease in cluster pod count, and a 30-40% reduction in infrastructure costs. StormForge was able to reduce operational overhead, improve scalability, and enhance productivity by enabling engineering teams to focus more on innovation and customer value. As an AWS Partner, StormForge looks forward to continuing to help customers optimize their infrastructure by rightsizing, streamlining, and modernizing their application stacks using Amazon EKS Auto Mode.

Happening provides the technology engine powering Superbet's global sports betting and gaming brands, processing over 90 million transactions daily for 700K+ active monthly users. They implemented Amazon EKS Hybrid Nodes to modernize their edge Kubernetes infrastructure, enabling centralized management of distributed on-premise clusters while maintaining local data residency for regulatory compliance across multiple global markets.

“Amazon EKS Hybrid Nodes has delivered significant operational improvements across our global infrastructure. We've achieved a 70% decrease in cluster management time through unified upgrades across AWS hosted and on-premise nodes, and reduced infrastructure management costs by 40% as a result of eliminating the need for multiple control planes in each market. By using EKS Hybrid Nodes, we're able to maintain full policy compliance across all edge locations with centralized visibility, and have significantly reduced complexity by consolidating our management to a single, scalable EKS control plane.“

Laurent Godet, Engineering Manager, Happening

"Amazon EKS Auto Mode has significantly improved our operations at KOHO. By offloading more of the operational burden to AWS and utilizing EKS Auto Mode with Spot, we've achieved operational cost savings of 30% while building a Kubernetes platform that meets our stringent banking security and compliance requirements and enables multi-region resilience. We have significantly improved scaling times and enhanced our operational resiliency under load and traffic spikes. Using EKS Auto Mode, we have been able to achieve high-performance, high-availability, and low-cost hosting."

Dan Gienow, Staff Developer, Infrastructure, KOHO

"Amazon EKS Auto Mode has been a game-changer for our Flink-based real-time data processing platform. As our workloads became more dynamic, we needed a solution that would eliminate the operational overhead of managing node groups, handling cluster upgrades, and maintaining scaling policies. EKS Auto Mode automates compute provisioning and optimizes instance selection based on real-time demand, while significantly reducing the time our team spends on cluster maintenance tasks. This has led to a 30–40% reduction in infrastructure costs and shifted our focus from infrastructure management to innovation. EKS Auto Mode provides us the ability to leverage open source solutions while still abstracting away complexity. Our platform now automatically adjusts compute resources based on real-time demand, improving operational efficiency and system reliability without manual intervention."

"Using Amazon EKS, there’s virtually no amount of code we can’t run and no number of developers we can’t support."

Ronan O’Brien, DevOps Engineer, JLR

"Migrating to Amazon EKS has unlocked automatic scaling for us, which has been a big cost savings."

David Press, Senior Principal Engineer, Riot Games

"Using AWS, we can innovate, optimize, and continually improve our systems with confidence."

Huan Yang, Chief Technology Officer, CAFU

"Amazon EKS Hybrid Nodes has transformed how we manage our infrastructure by allowing us to integrate non-AWS GPU resources with our existing AWS infrastructure. As a startup, we need to optimize costs while maintaining access to powerful GPU resources like H100s. Amazon EKS Hybrid Nodes enables us to leverage resources through other providers, while managing everything centrally through AWS. We’ve been able to gain at least 5x speed in training times and reduce our operating cost of running experiments. This is achieved by better optimizing the resources we have and ensuring compute is available when we need it, so scaling in and out doesn't increase cold start times for services spinning up. Amazon EKS Hybrid Nodes has significantly simplified our hybrid cloud operations and improved our GPU utilization, all while maintaining the robust management capabilities of Amazon EKS."

James Morgan, Principal Platform Engineer, Flawless

"Sony Interactive Entertainment, with support from Amazon EKS, has efficiently managed compute resources and provided developers their preferred tools. This has removed common obstacles, accelerated kernel and node updates, and enhanced the overall developer experience."

Swathi Somanchi, Senior Director of Engineering, SIE

"Amazon EKS definitely helps us because we are multi-region and we're across the globe, having the stability and reliability of EKS, it allows us to put more focus on our customers than we would have to necessarily if we had to maintain everything ourselves with the infrastructure."

Carlos Traitel, Senior DevOps Engineer, JFrog

"It’s very important to us to always build up our infrastructure to get excellent performance without sacrificing costs too much. Using Karpenter with EKS, we saw huge improvements, including in deployment and tuning, in less than 2 months."
