Amazon Elastic Kubernetes Service endpoints and quotas - AWS General Reference

Amazon Elastic Kubernetes Service endpoints and quotas

The following are the service endpoints and service quotas for this service. To connect programmatically to an AWS service, you use an endpoint. In addition to the standard AWS endpoints, some AWS services offer FIPS endpoints in selected Regions. For more information, see AWS service endpoints. Service quotas, also referred to as limits, are the maximum number of service resources or operations for your AWS account. For more information, see AWS service quotas.

Note

The default values are the initial quotas set by AWS. These default values are separate from the actual applied quota values and maximum possible service quotas. For more information, see Terminology in Service Quotas in the Service Quotas User Guide.

These service quotas are listed under Amazon Elastic Kubernetes Service (Amazon EKS) in the Service Quotas console. To request a quota increase for values that are shown as adjustable, see Requesting a quota increase in the Service Quotas User Guide.

AWS Fargate service quotas

The AWS Fargate service in the Service Quotas console lists several service quotas. The following table only describes the quota that is applicable to Amazon EKS.

New AWS accounts might have lower initial quotas that can increase over time. Fargate constantly monitors the account usage within each AWS Region, and then automatically increases the quotas based on the usage. You can also request a quota increase for values that are shown as adjustable. For more information, see Requesting a quota increase in the Service Quotas User Guide.

Name Default Adjustable Description

Fargate On-Demand vCPU resource count

6 Yes

The number of Fargate vCPUs that can run concurrently as Fargate On-Demand in this account in the current Region.

Note

The default values are the initial quotas set by AWS. These default values are separate from the actual applied quota values and maximum possible service quotas. For more information, see Terminology in Service Quotas in the Service Quotas User Guide.

Note

Fargate additionally enforces Amazon ECS tasks and Amazon EKS pods launch rate quotas. For more information, see AWS Fargate throttling quotas in the Amazon Elastic Container Service User Guide for AWS Fargate.
