Use EKS

We recommend using Amazon EKS to run Kubernetes in AWS. It manages the control plane for you, which significantly reduces your operational burden; it has good integration with other AWS services; you can manage it entirely as code; and while EKS still has some gaps in terms of features, and is more complicated to use than it should be, AWS seems to be heavily investing into the service, so any small benefits you get from using other solutions will most likely be eclipsed very quickly by future EKS releases.
