Use Raspberry Pi 5 as Amazon EKS Hybrid Nodes for edge workloads

Containers Blog



This article discusses using the Raspberry Pi 5 as an Amazon EKS Hybrid Node for edge computing and IoT applications. Key highlights include:

  • Demonstrates extending Kubernetes clusters beyond cloud infrastructure to edge environments
  • Uses a Raspberry Pi 5 with an ultrasonic sensor to collect and process real-time distance data
  • Establishes secure connectivity using WireGuard VPN between cloud and edge networks
  • Integrates with Amazon DynamoDB for data storage and a web dashboard for visualization
  • Enables processing of sensor data locally before transmitting to cloud

The solution showcases how organizations can build hybrid Kubernetes architectures that bridge physical environments and cloud infrastructure, providing flexibility for distributed computing scenarios.
