Amazon Elastic Kubernetes Service (EKS) has recently announced support for using NVIDIA and AWS Neuron accelerated instance types with AL2023. This update brings improved security features, optimized boot times, and newer kernel versions. The EKS Optimized AMIs now include NVIDIA drivers, NVIDIA Fabric Manager, and NVIDIA container toolkit, as well as the Neuron driver. Additionally, both AMIs come with software needed to use AWS Elastic Fabric Adapter network interfaces.

This development enables customers to choose between NVIDIA or Neuron AMI with EKS Managed Node Groups, self-managed nodes, and Karpenter. The Amazon EKS Optimized AMIs are now available for exploration.
