Karpenter Stability Issues on EKS During Leader Election
  • EKS may be able to handle steady, predictable scale, but struggles during large‑scale auto scaling events when many workloads and nodes are spinning up or down simultaneously.
  • This instability affects components that implement leader election using the Kubernetes API, such as:
  • aws‑load‑balancer‑controller
  • karpenter
  • keda‑operator
  • ebs‑csi‑controller
  • efs‑csi‑controller
