Amazon EKS Dashboard now provides fleet-wide visibility into certificate authority (CA) rotation

Amazon EKS Dashboard adds consolidated CA rotation visibility across clusters, enabling fleet-wide management of upcoming expirations and automated rotation events

Amazon EKS Dashboard now offers integrated CA rotation status for entire clusters. The existing dashboard enables centralized management across multiple regions and accounts, allowing teams to identify clusters with expiring CAs or upcoming automated rotation events without checking each cluster individually. CA rotation support is available in all commercial AWS regions, and management teams can access this dashboard free of charge from the US East region (us-east-1).

Why it matters

Helps platform teams managing many clusters prioritize CA rotation actions across their fleet
