# Pulumi Amazon Web Services (AWS) EKS Components
The Pulumi EKS library provides a Pulumi component that creates and manages the resources necessary to run an EKS Kubernetes cluster in AWS. This component exposes the Crosswalk for AWS functionality documented in the [Pulumi Elastic Kubernetes Service guide](https://www.pulumi.com/docs/guides/crosswalk/aws/eks/) as a package available in all Pulumi languages.
This includes:
- The EKS cluster control plane.
- The cluster's worker nodes configured as node groups, which are managed by an auto scaling group.
- The AWS CNI Plugin [`aws-k8s-cni`](https://github.com/aws/amazon-vpc-cni-k8s/) to manage pod networking in Kubernetes.
