Hi @mikestef9, would you be able to address any of the questions on the description for planning purposes? Thanks!
We are working on this. Best place to follow for updates is the issue in EKS AL AMI repo https://github.com/awslabs/amazon-eks-ami/issues/1385
Hi Folks, we have an exciting update on this. Amazon Linux 2023 (AL2023) is now available for testing in Tech Preview for self managed nodes, and for Managed Node Groups (MNG) and Karpenter nodes via a custom AMI. For more information on using the Tech Preview AMI, see our Github Announcement.
Amazon has released eks optimized ami with AL2023: https://aws.amazon.com/about-aws/whats-new/2024/02/amazon-eks-support-linux-2023/
But still its not available for gpu based instances
AL2023 standard AMIs are launched. We are working on AL2023 GPU based AMIs for both Neuron and NVIDIA. Going to close this issue, can you open a separate issue to request and track AL2023 GPU AMIs
