-The code above will provision the following:
-
-- ✅ A new EKS Cluster with a managed node group.
-- ✅ Amazon EKS add-ons `vpc-cni`, `CoreDNS`, `kube-proxy`, and `aws-ebs-csi-driver`.
-- ✅ `Cluster Autoscaler` and `Metrics Server` for scaling your workloads.
-- ✅ `Fluent Bit` for routing logs.
-- ✅ `AWS Load Balancer Controller` for distributing traffic.
-- ✅ `Argocd` for declarative GitOps CD for Kubernetes.
-- ✅ `Prometheus` for observability.

 ## Add-ons
 
 EKS Blueprints makes it easy to provision a wide range of popular Kubernetes add-ons into an EKS cluster. By default, the [Terraform Helm provider](https://github.com/hashicorp/terraform-provider-helm) is used to deploy add-ons with publicly available [Helm Charts](https://artifacthub.io/).EKS Blueprints provides support for leveraging self-hosted Helm Chart as well.
 
 For complete documentation on deploying add-ons, please visit our [add-on documentation](https://aws-ia.github.io/terraform-aws-eks-blueprints/latest/add-ons/)
 
-## Submodules
-
-The root module calls into several submodules which provides support for deploying and integrating a number of external AWS services that can be used in concert with Amazon EKS.
-This includes Amazon Managed Prometheus and EMR on EKS. For complete documentation on deploying external services, please visit our [submodules documentation](https://aws-ia.github.io/terraform-aws-eks-blueprints/latest/modules/emr-on-eks/).

 ## Motivation
 
 Kubernetes is a powerful and extensible container orchestration technology that allows you to deploy and manage containerized applications at scale. The extensible nature of Kubernetes also allows you to use a wide range of popular open-source tools, commonly referred to as add-ons, in Kubernetes clusters. With such a large number of tooling and design choices available however, building a tailored EKS cluster that meets your application’s specific needs can take a significant amount of time. It involves integrating a wide range of open-source tools and AWS services and requires deep expertise in AWS and Kubernetes.

 A `cluster` is simply an EKS cluster. EKS Blueprints provides for customizing the compute options you leverage with your `clusters`. The framework currently supports `EC2`, `Fargate` and `BottleRocket` instances. It also supports managed and self-managed node groups. To specify the type of compute you want to use for your `cluster`, you use the `managed_node_groups`, `self_managed_nodegroups`, or `fargate_profiles` variables.

 ## Add-on
 
 `Add-ons` allow you to configure the operational tools that you would like to deploy into your EKS cluster. When you configure `add-ons` for a `cluster`, the `add-ons` will be provisioned at deploy time by leveraging the Terraform Helm provider. Add-ons can deploy both Kubernetes specific resources and AWS resources needed to support add-on functionality.
