Welcome to the VM to EKS Demo repository! This simple application demonstrates the end-to-end process of migrating a traditional, virtual-machine-based deployment on DigitalOcean to a fully containerized workload running on AWS EKS. Along the way, the demo also highlights how to incorporate compliance best practices and how DuploCloud can streamline your journey—from infrastructure provisioning and container orchestration to security and governance.
