Amazon EKS now supports AWS PrivateLink
You can now use AWS PrivateLink to privately access the Amazon Elastic Kubernetes Service (Amazon EKS) management APIs from your Amazon Virtual Private Cloud (VPC). AWS PrivateLink provides private connectivity between VPCs, AWS services, and your on-premises networks. You can now manage your Amazon EKS clusters in your VPC using AWS PrivateLink to help your organization’s security and compliance requirements. You can also access the VPC endpoint from on-premises environments or from other VPCs using AWS VPN, AWS Direct Connect, or VPC Peering. Creating VPC Endpoints incurs charges, see the AWS PrivateLink pricing page for more information.

Amazon EKS is a managed Kubernetes service that makes it easier for you to run Kubernetes on AWS without needing to install, operate, and maintain your own Kubernetes control plane or worker nodes. Amazon EKS is certified Kubernetes conformant, so you can migrate standard Kubernetes application to EKS without needing to refactor your code.
EKS support for AWS PrivateLink is available in the following AWS Regions: US East (Ohio, N. Virginia), US West (Oregon, N. California), Africa (Cape Town), Asia Pacific (Hong Kong, Mumbai, Singapore, Sydney, Seoul, Tokyo), Canada (Central), Europe (Ireland, Frankfurt, London, Stockholm, Paris, Milan), Middle East (Bahrain), South America (Sao Paulo), and AWS GovCloud (US).
To use AWS PrivateLink, create an interface VPC endpoint for Amazon EKS in your VPC using the Amazon VPC console, SDK, or CLI. To learn more about Amazon EKS, please see the service documentation.
