FAQPage Schema
How do I automate deployments to EKS using Harness CD?▼

To automate EKS deployments with Harness CD, you define EKS infrastructure and environment configurations, then select a deployment method like Native Helm, Kubernetes manifests, or GitOps.

Can I use GitOps with ArgoCD to deploy to EKS through Harness?▼

Yes, GitOps with ArgoCD is supported as a deployment method. You can manage EKS infrastructure definitions and environment-specific overrides while utilizing GitOps strategies.

What advanced deployment strategies are supported for EKS clusters?▼

Rolling, Canary, and Blue-Green deployment strategies are supported. These strategies help ensure zero-downtime releases and enable quick rollbacks for your microservices.

Does Harness CD support Native Helm and Kubernetes manifests for EKS?▼

Yes, Native Helm and Kubernetes manifests are both supported deployment methods. You can use either approach to deploy applications to your AWS EKS clusters.

How do I configure environment-specific overrides for EKS deployments?▼

You can manage environment-specific overrides by defining EKS infrastructure and environment configurations within Harness CD before executing your deployment strategy.

When should I use canary deployments for EKS microservices?▼

Canary deployments are ideal for ensuring zero-downtime when releasing microservices to EKS. They allow gradual traffic shifting and quick rollbacks if verification steps detect issues.
