## [Amazon EKS v1.29 using Rafay](https://docs.rafay.co/blog/2024/02/19/amazon-eks-v129-using-rafay/)

Our [recent release update in Feb](https://docs.rafay.co/releasenotes/2024/feb/) to our Preview environment adds support for a number of new features and enhancements. We will write about the other new features in separate blogs. This blog is focused on our turnkey support for [Amazon EKS v1.29](https://docs.rafay.co/clusters/eks/overview/).

Both **new cluster provisioning** and **in-place upgrades** of existing EKS clusters are supported. As with most Kubernetes releases, this version also deprecates and removes a number of features. To ensure there is zero impact to our customers, we have made sure that **every feature** in the Rafay Kubernetes Operations Platform has been validated on this Kubernetes version.

This release will be promoted from Preview to Production in a few days and will be made available to all customers.

> Note that **no action** is needed on the part of our SaaS customers with the new release. Once the rollout is completed, all they need to do is learn about the new features and determine **how** and **when** they would like to use them.
