Amazon EKS Node Monitoring Agent is now open source

Amazon Elastic Kubernetes Service (Amazon EKS) Node Monitoring Agent is now open source. You can access the Amazon EKS Node Monitoring Agent source code and contribute to its development on GitHub.

Running workloads reliably in Kubernetes clusters can be challenging. Cluster administrators often have to resort to manual methods of monitoring and repairing degraded nodes in their clusters. The Amazon EKS Node Monitoring Agent simplifies this process by automatically monitoring and publishing node-level system, storage, networking, and accelerator issues as node conditions, which are used by Amazon EKS for automatic node repair. With the Amazon EKS Node Monitoring Agent’s source code available on GitHub, you now have visibility into the agent’s implementation, can customize it to fit your requirements, and can contribute directly to its ongoing development.

The Amazon EKS Node Monitoring Agent is included in Amazon EKS Auto Mode and is available as an Amazon EKS add-on in all AWS Regions where Amazon EKS is available.
