Description
**Tell us about your request**
Ability to propogate EKS cluster tags to EC2 resources (instances, autoscaling groups, load balancers) used as part of the cluster. This will help with resource organization and cost allocation within your AWS account.
**Feedback requested**
Should we expand the scope of this to include propagating K8s labels to AWS tags and giving you the ability to assign labels used for resources within certain namespaces, services, etc as AWS tags on related resources? This is one path to improving cost allocation capabilities withing AWS and K8s.
Contributor guide
Research direction
The request covers propagating EKS cluster tags to EC2 instances, auto scaling groups, and load balancers, with an open question about Kubernetes labels and namespace or service scope. Start by resolving the intended propagation scope and reviewing the relevant EKS resource behavior. Done means the scope and expected tag propagation rules are agreed and testable.
