Validating Admission Policy support for EKS

0

Hi, Validating Admission Policy has been in GA state since v1.30. Is there any reason why it is not available in AWS EKS? In my opinion it is good and native alternative for OPA/Gatekeeper, Kuverno, etc.

    Has there been an update on this? Will EKS be supporting Validating Admission Policy soon?

    it has been a full year since the answer. Is this feature on an EKS roadmap somewhere?

Hello msmax,

EKS doesn't currently offer Validating Admission Policy directly (as of June 13, 2024). This is likely due to EKS prioritizing stability and using slightly older Kubernetes versions.

While not built-in, you have options:

  • Upgrade your EKS cluster's Kubernetes version (if supported) to potentially access it.
  • Deploy a custom Validating Admission Controller for more control.
  • Stay updated through AWS release notes and community forums for future feature announcements and support for VAP in EKS.
