There has been a lot of prior work in this space. There's crossplane, the Terraform Operator, and a ton of roll-your-own solutions for tackling this vary problem. Alibaba also was early to have the concept of a 'virtual node' where you can deploy seemingly infinite number of pods, they'll handle all the orchestration below. I was reading the article thinking "Yes, finally, some code or use to implement interacting with AWS without a 3rd party lib" and then I got to this section at the bottom: > In this post, we showed you the flexibility of Kubernetes. It’s arguably an extreme option and one that doesn’t even exist today (the Amazon ECS ACK controller isn’t available but please thumb up this roadmap proposal if you are intrigued). If anything, it proves that Kubernetes can be a lot of things to a lot of different people and defining it remains a work in progress (at least in my head). As usual, Amazon is playing catch-up in actually orchestrating their services in a non-AWS-centric way. Very deceptive to create a blog post and not disclose it's not real software at the end.
