AWS Marketplace launches self-service flows for sellers to list third-party EKS add-ons

AWS Marketplace now provides a self-service listing workflow for AWS Marketplace sellers to publish their container software in the Amazon Elastic Kubernetes (EKS) console. This new self-service workflow, available in the AWS Marketplace Management Portal or through the AWS Marketplace Catalog API, enables sellers to submit their container software to be displayed in the EKS console for customers to discover, purchase, and deploy.

At re:invent 2022, AWS announced an integration between AWS Marketplace and Amazon EKS to showcase complimentary third-party Kubernetes software from AWS Marketplace in the EKS console. Improving on the previous manual onboarding process, AWS Partners can now utilize the AWS Marketplace Management Portal (AMMP) or the Catalog API to publish their software on the EKS console with minimal interaction with AWS Marketplace teams. While creating a new listing, or creating a new version for the existing listing, AWS Partners can add a new delivery method, named “Amazon EKS console add-on”, and fill in the required information. Once the required information is provided, the listing is reviewed and published in the EKS console for the AWS partner to test and validate. After testing and validation is completed, AWS Marketplace will publish the third-party listing to the EKS console in all AWS Regions where Amazon EKS is available, except China and the AWS GovCloud (US) Regions.
