   - A gp2-encrypted storage class is created
   - An efs storage class is created
     - This storage class is returned as the `rwx_storage_class`
-- cluster-autoscaler
-  - Monitors cpu/memory usage by components being deployed to the clsuter.
-    - When the cluster is out of capacity, the autoscaler will add nodes to the cluster up to the maximum size of the node group.
-    - When the autoscaler detects excess capacity, the autoscaler will cause EKS to migrate pods running on the node to a different node and then remove the node from the cluster.
-
-When selecting which version of the cluster-autoscaler to install, use the one that is closest to the same version as the `cluster_version` or slightly higher.
-The cluster-autoscaler uses the kuberentes scheduling algorithm to appropriate scale the cluster, and if the autoscaler version sufficiently divirges from the kubernetes version, the autoscaler will scale the node groups incorrectly.
