The preview now includes EKS-optimized AMIs for Kubernetes version 1.13 and 1.14 and is available in all global AWS regions where EKS is generally available. Additionally, the latest preview AMIs and container images includes critical bug fixes and have been scale tested on EKS Kubernetes clusters.
