**Tell us about your request**
Improvements are needed to prevent EC2 API throttling issues by providing the WARM IP feature like in an environment using ENI Secondary IP (without SGP).

**Which service(s) is this request for?**
EKS VPC-RC (Resource Controller)

**Tell us about the problem you're trying to solve. What are you trying to do, and why is it hard?**
If the creation/deletion of a Pod with the SGP function applied is repeated, Pod creation is delayed due to EC2 API throttling. When operating with ENI Secondray IP (without SGP), this problem is bypassed through WARM IP and WARM ENI. But SGP does not yet provide the WARM IP function, so EC2 API Throttling issues cannot be avoided.

**Are you currently working around this issue?**
We are responding temporarily by increasing EC2 API request limit. However, because there is a limit to increasing the EC2 API request limit, the WARM IP function is necessary.

Research direction

No repository files, tests, or entry points are identified. Start by reviewing EKS VPC-RC, Security Groups for Pods, and the existing WARM IP/WARM ENI behavior; done means providing equivalent WARM IP support for SGP without the reported EC2 API throttling during repeated Pod creation and deletion.
