AWS has introduced the Amazon EKS Dashboard, a centralized tool designed to provide comprehensive visibility and governance for multi-cluster Kubernetes environments across AWS accounts and regions.

• Addresses challenges of cluster sprawl, security risks, and operational inefficiencies
• Offers a unified view of Kubernetes resources including clusters, node groups, and add-ons
• Enables monitoring of cluster health, Kubernetes version status, and support lifecycle
• Provides features like cost forecasting for extended support and version upgrade insights
• Supports data export, regional resource compliance views, and historical trend analysis

The dashboard helps platform teams proactively manage their Kubernetes infrastructure by providing centralized visibility, simplifying governance, and reducing operational complexity across multiple clusters and accounts.
