Hi All!
AWS EKS images have been migrated to be based on jammy from EKS 1.29 forward for AMD64 and ARM64 (Graviton) instance types.

Changes:

  • kernel 6.2.0 out of the box

As always, you can find them using our image finder, AWS Marketplace or AWSCLI:

aws ssm get-parameters --names /aws/service/canonical/ubuntu/eks/22.04/1.29/stable/current/amd64/hvm/ebs-gp2/ami-id

:warning: Please note that, as the new version is based on 22.04 and EKS 1.29, any other combination using AWSCLI will give you zero results.
