## [Amazon EKS v1.31 using Rafay](https://docs.rafay.co/blog/2024/10/21/amazon-eks-v131-using-rafay/)

Our [recent release update in Oct](https://docs.rafay.co/releasenotes/2024/oct/) to our Production 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 v1.31](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.
