Feed: Recent Announcements. Previously, tagging was not supported for Amazon EKS clusters. This made it difficult to control access to manage the EKS API for individual clusters and you could not add metadata that indicated the purpose of the cluster for reporting purposes.

Tags added to an EKS cluster are specific to the AWS EKS cluster resource, they do not propagate to other AWS resources used by the cluster such as ... Read More
