Amazon EKS now supports multiple external OIDC identity providers per cluster

Amazon EKS now supports multiple external OIDC identity providers per cluster, allowing organizations to authenticate different user populations independently.

• Associate up to 10 OIDC identity providers with a single EKS cluster
• Support different providers for employees, contractors, and CI/CD systems
• Each provider configured and managed independently with separate identity mapping
• Existing IAM authentication continues to work alongside configured providers
• Add providers using AWS Management Console or AssociateIdentityProviderConfig API
• Available at no additional cost in all AWS Regions

Organizations can now authenticate diverse user populations through their respective identity providers without requiring consolidation or intermediary brokers.
