KVM on AWS ECS or EC2 Docker Container

Ubuntu Linux AMI is partnered by Canonical and same is supported as an custom AMI per [2]. Also, the list of Operating systems supported for EKS custom AMIs are per [3].

On checking, could not see KVM based AMI supported as an custom AMI for EKS Workernodes. Furthermore, check an new issue open in the EKS Custom AMI Github repo [4] and EKS Roadmap issues [5]. You could open an issue in container road-map for feature request.
