Demo: Run EKS workloads on 50% fewer nodes with Elastic Machine Pool

Cut costs, not corners. Unlike existing FinOps tools, Elastic Machine Pool (EMP) solves the fundamental problem of low EKS cluster CPU and memory utilization without pod disruption. EMP is not yet another cluster autoscaler or right-sizing tool, it's a brand-new compute engine for public clouds that creates a highly efficient virtualization layer on top of AWS bare metal. Join us to see the product in action.
