Deploy scalable app with EKS + Karpenter

Deploy Scalable Apps with EKS + Karpenter 🚀

Modern cloud architectures demand more than just scalable code—they require dynamic, cost-efficient, and automated infrastructure. Moving away from static node groups toward just-in-time provisioning is the new gold standard for high-performance production environments.
Join us as we break down the blueprint for deploying containerized applications to Amazon EKS using Karpenter. We will dive deep into how this open-source node provisioner improves application availability and cluster efficiency by rapidly launching the right compute resources for your specific workloads.
Whether you're a DevOps Engineer, Backend Developer, or Cloud Architect, this session will provide the practical steps to build hardened, production-ready EKS environments that scale effortlessly 🤖☁️.
