What does this mean for Kops? https://github.com/kubernetes/kops
Some teams will want custom cluster deployments for whatever reasons but it will probably lose a lot of traction now... which is fine. Kops is a big expansive tool with a little too much surface area for my liking in a infrastructure management tool.
I'll be interested to know if EKS will support custom CNI or if it will use kubenet.
They announced they were going to be using their open source cni plugin https://github.com/aws/amazon-vpc-cni-k8s/
