<p>I am having one AWS EKS Cluster up &amp; running. I need to add node group with taint. So that I can deploy the pod on particular node group in EKS. I can do it in azure AKS using the following command.</p>
<pre class="lang-bash prettyprint-override"><code>az aks nodepool add --resource-group rg-xx --cluster-name aks-xxx --name np1 --node-count 1 --node-vm-size xxx --node-taints key=value:NoSchedule --no-wait
</code></pre>
<p>How to achieve same in AWS EKS?</p>

<p>You can use this example: <a href="https://eksctl.io/usage/autoscaling/#scaling-up-from-0" rel="nofollow noreferrer">https://eksctl.io/usage/autoscaling/#scaling-up-from-0</a></p>
<pre><code>nodeGroups:
- name: ng1-public
  ...
  labels:
    my-cool-label: pizza
  taints:
    feaster: &quot;true:NoSchedule&quot;
</code></pre>
