SaaS deployment architectures with Amazon EKS
Containers Blog
The article discusses SaaS deployment architectures using Amazon EKS, highlighting three primary models for deploying software services across different customer environments:
- SaaS Provider Hosted: Both control and data planes reside in the provider's AWS account
- Remote Application Plane: Data plane runs in customer's environment, control plane stays in provider's account
- Hybrid Nodes: EKS control plane in provider's account, compute nodes in customer's infrastructure
Key considerations include:
- Establishing clear shared responsibility models
- Using GitOps for consistent deployments
- Implementing robust tenant onboarding processes
- Managing infrastructure and application lifecycle across distributed environments
The article emphasizes that these deployment models enable SaaS providers to serve diverse markets while maintaining operational excellence and customer flexibility.
