When a node group is updated or a Spot interruption empties the workers in one AZ, displaced pods land in the remaining AZs. After capacity comes back, every node looks healthy, but the running pods no longer match the spread
Fix pod distribution drift in Amazon EKS with the Kubernetes descheduler | Amazon Web Services
A workload spread across three Availability Zones does not necessarily stay spread. This post explains why soft topology spread constraints drift after a node-availability gap, measures the cost, and shows how the Kubernetes descheduler restores even pod distribution on Amazon EKS without downtime and without forcing hard constraints.

AWS says data stored only in its Bahrain region can't be recovered. The damage "spanned multiple availability zones."

Multi-AZ answers a smaller question than it sounds like. A backup in the same region shares its fate.

Copy it out of the region.

#AWS #DisasterRecovery #SRE
Two-column diagram. Left column, red, headed "Same region": multi-AZ only, with zones in one region close enough to share a disaster; a snapshot next door, the backup living in the same region as the data it protects; never restored, nobody having tried to bring it back somewhere else. Right column, green, headed "Another region": backups copied to a recovery region on a schedule; in AWS Backup the cross-region copy only happens if you set it; restore it once to prove the newest copy comes back in the other region. Center, labeled "Bahrain region, single-region data unrecoverable": two storage drums joined by an arrow, the left one cracked and the right one locked, and the line "Multi-AZ answers a smaller question than it sounds like," with an arrow labeled "copy it out" pointing left to right. Bottom bar: a backup in the same region shares its fate. If this region vanished tonight, where is your newest copy?

My First Steps into AWS Cloud Computing
Cloud computing has become an important part of modern technology, and I recently started exploring AWS to understand cloud services. As a student, I want to move beyond theory and gain practical experience. I am learning about AWS Regions, Availability Zones, EC2, S3, IAM, and Lambda. My goal is to build small cloud-based projects and improve my AWS skills through hands-on learning.

AWS a confirmé son incapacité à restaurer des données hébergées dans ses régions de Bahreïn et des Émirats, à la suite d'attaques de drones.

👉 health.aws.amazon.co...
Sep 15 3:27 AM PDT We are providing an update on the disruption affecting the Middle East (UAE) (me-central-1) Region. After a thorough assessment, we have determined that we are unable to restore access to the resources and data hosted exclusively in the mec1-az2 Availability Zone. We continue to work on recovering regional resources, as well as zonal resources hosted in the other affected Availability Zones (mec1-az1 and mec1-az3). Since the disruption began in March, most customers have been able to re-establish their operations in other Regions by restoring backups or copying data that remained accessible. AWS Support remains available to help customers who need assistance moving their applications to alternate Regions. We remain committed to supporting our customers in the UAE. We are working on replacing the affected infrastructure and will provide an update on the restoration of our services in the coming months. We have notified the relevant authorities and continue to work w
