EKS Design

Generate architecture design documents for production-ready EKS deployments. All output is structured for direct handoff to eks-build for code generation.

When to Use

• Designing a new EKS cluster architecture from requirements
• Reviewing or validating existing EKS architecture decisions
• Choosing between EKS compute options (Karpenter, MNG, Auto Mode, Fargate)
• Planning EKS networking or security architecture
• Evaluating EKS deployment models (Standard, Auto Mode, Outposts, Anywhere)
• Optimizing EKS cost and scalability
• Generating architecture documentation, ADRs, or Mermaid diagrams for EKS
• Generating standalone Mermaid architecture diagrams (EKS topology, VPC layout, subnet tiers, node groups, pod networking flows, load balancer placement)
• Creating design artifacts that feed into eks-build for implementation
