Summary
In this chapter, we did a highlighted overview of the Amazon EKS control plane/data plane and how Amazon VPC CNI for Windows works; then, we went over a list of not-supported features and functionalities for Windows-based nodes and pods and how this can affect your cluster configuration. Finally, I shared some personal experiences about Kubernetes and Windows and what you should consider when choosing Amazon EKS over Amazon ECS as your Windows containers orchestrator.
In the next chapter, Preparing the Cluster for OS Interoperability, we will learn how to enable Windows support on an Amazon EKS cluster. In addition, we will learn how to avoid deployment disruption and scale in/out of Windows pods.
