EKS Cluster resources strategy

Apart from EKS, you can consider ECS or App Runner, EKS is good for production ready use case with a lot of microservices/full control. If you have just a couple of them, you can save costs by using the below two:

• How good if I migrate it to EKS

• It depends on your scenario, what are you seeking for ? Like reducing cost and more flexibility? You can also optimized the pod density in a specific instance.

• Shall I pick 1 instance for all micro-services. If i took 1 then if something went wrong machine crashes then all the services will go down.

• You can check the EKS event to see what happened behind, was that due to lack of vcpu or any else?

• Shall go for setup self-managed Kubernates

• If you would like to have more control with container like customized AMI, it can also be considered. But normally AWS managed EKS will be a good choice.
