Hey, all! It seems like EKS questions are rather popular today so, here’s another one :slightly_smiling_face:

Is there a way to tell awsx Cluster to NOT create NATs for private subnets? I have a weird need where I need to provision a k8s cluster where I can talk to the control plane (EKS) from the outside, but the actual nodes don’t have any internet access. I’m looking for a quickest way to create such a setup, and really hope to use Pulumi for this :slightly_smiling_face:
Thanks for any help!

hmm.. maybe I do. I didn’t realize NATs are probably created by the VPC component and not the cluster itself.

you can set the number of nat gateways like this:

Set it to 0 and you won't get any :slightly_smiling_face:

yep, that’s what I’m going to try doing
Thanks for pointing me in the right direction :thumbsup:
