Amazon EKS introduces on-demand insights refresh

Today, Amazon Elastic Kubernetes Service (EKS) introduced support for on-demand refresh of cluster insights, enabling customers to more efficiently test and validate if applied recommendations have successfully taken effect.

Every Amazon EKS cluster undergoes automatic, periodic checks against a curated list of insights, which provide detection of issues, such as warnings about changes required before Kubernetes version upgrades, as well as recommendations for how to address each insight. With on-demand cluster insights refresh functionality, customers can fetch the latest insights immediately after making changes, accelerating the testing and verification process when performing upgrades or making configuration changes to your cluster.

EKS upgrade insights and the new refresh capability is available in all commercial AWS Regions. To learn more visit the EKS documentation.
