How do I upgrade the Kubernetes version of the EKS cluster?

Answer

I'm using the Gruntwork modules and would like to upgrade the Kubernetes version from 1.19 to 1.21 (for example). What do I need to do?

This link [https://github.com/gruntwork-io/terraform-aws-eks/blob/master/modules/eks-cluster-control-plane/README.md#how-do-i-upgrade-the-kubernetes-version-of-the-cluster](https://github.com/gruntwork-io/terraform-aws-eks/blob/master/modules/eks-cluster-control-plane/README.md#how-do-i-upgrade-the-kubernetes-version-of-the-cluster) should contain the necessary information regarding upgrading kubernetes clusters.
