Summary

Adds Dynamic Resource Allocation (DRA) support for NVIDIA GPUs and EFA devices in Amazon EKS Auto Mode and Karpenter.
Allows workloads to request specific device attributes via ResourceClaim objects, with automatic, topology‑aligned instance provisioning and cost‑optimal scaling.
Built‑in DRA drivers prevent mixing DRA and device‑plugin workloads on the same node; available in all regions except GovCloud and China, for K8s 1.36+ in Auto Mode and all versions in Karpenter.
