I think pulumi_eks is part of the pulumi crosswalk, which is packed as a module by following best practices and architecture principles, so you can create EKS without worrying too much about the low-level settings or config. pulumi_aws provides more granular API for each AWS resource

No worries. If I need to also install helm chart to the EKS with Pulumi, can I use the
eks
in
pulumi_aws
, or I have to use
pulumi_eks
?

See my reply to your thread. You can use either. However, be aware that right now there is a limitation with
pulumi_eks
regarding add-ons (it doesn’t support them). If you need the EBS CSI driver for your EKS cluster, you might be better served with
pulumi_aws
.
