DevOps Practisting Platform on EKS with Karpenter autoscaling
summary
A hands-on platform runs VS Code in browser on AWS EKS, uses EKS + Karpenter autoscaling (v0.46) to pick instance types, handle spot interruptions and avoid pending pods, and destroys everything after each session so there are no orphan resources; labs are 20–30 small testable steps with automated checks, infrastructure is organized as terraform layered state, the instructor reports building ~50 clusters, typical training cost under $300 and the setup works well though Karpenter 0.46 is not yet recommended for production.
