Customizing Docker images for Amazon EMR on EKS

  • Package application dependencies and runtime environment into a single immutable container that promotes portability and simplifies dependency management for each workload.

  • Install and configure packages that are optimized to your workloads. These packages may not be widely available in the public distribution of Amazon EMR runtimes.

  • Integrate Amazon EMR on EKS with current established build, test, and deployment processes within your organization, including local development and testing.

  • Apply established security processes, such as image scanning, that meet compliance and governance requirements within your organization.
