Wonderfully explained the auth mechanisms in k8s along with eks in aws. It's a very complicated subject, hard to master, but your simple explanations make it much easier to understand. Very well done.

There is no video on youtube that explains about using IAM Users for RBAC in k8s almost all of the videos explain using users as certificates instead.This was excatly what i was looking for and you cleared all doubts that i had.Wondeful explanation and very detailed.

just a small doubt : What happens if an iam user is authorized using k8s RBAC inside k8s but no iam role or policy is attached to it, will it still be able to get info about the k8s workloads?
