easy question...when creating an EKS cluster, Pulumi seems to tack on random characters at the end, I suppose to keep the cluster name unique. Is there a place where I can set the cluster name and omit the random postfix of characters?

yep. I don’t think thats specific to EKS, pulumi does this across the board

This is the auto-naming functionality in Pulumi. https://www.pulumi.com/docs/intro/concepts/programming-model/#autonaming Generally you can override this by setting a
name: 'my-cluster'
property on the resource. You can do this if you're using the EKS resources via
@pulumi/aws
, but it looks like we don't expose this via
@pulumi/eks
.
