AWS ECS & AWS Fargate

October 13th, 2022

By Gerson Paim
AWS ECS & AWS Fargate

With the arrival of containers, we are no longer being surprised by unexpected behaviors in production environments. They have given developers the opportunity to create applications in development environments and deploy them fully into production environments.

Containers have brought many benefits such as standardization, scalability, isolation, and resource savings.

An application can consist of one or more containers, and with the widespread adoption of this technology, managing them has become an arduous mission, making container orchestrators fundamental. On AWS, we can find such orchestrators to be used as a service, and in this article, we will talk about AWS ECS and AWS Fargate.

ECS (Elastic Container Service) is a fully managed container orchestration service that integrates with the entire AWS ecosystem, including CloudTrail, CloudWatch, and Amazon ECR (Elastic Container Registry).

It offers more control over your infrastructure, but the disadvantage is the additional management that comes with it. In the server-based model (EC2 instances), users pay for computing costs per hour. This allows for cost optimization by taking advantage of billing models such as spot instances (offering discounts of up to 90%) or reserved instances (get a fixed discount by committing to an instance for a certain period).

Image and video processing using machine learning are cases that benefit from this service, as they require high-performance instances (GPU) that are capable of drastically reducing machine learning training time.

AWS Fargate allows you to manage containers without servers and is compatible with both ECS and EKS.

Choosing instance types and cluster sizing is not a concern for the user, making it a good option for its ease of use. It works very well for most workloads and allows for a faster pace of delivery. This is an important consideration for teams that want to be agile and innovative.

The cost is based on the utilization of CPU cores and the size of tasks that are previously configured, which helps ensure that you do not waste money on unused resources.

Decisions on which service should be used must always take cost into consideration. On average, the cost of running workloads on Fargate is three times higher than running the same workloads on EC2. Furthermore, using Fargate means that customers also cannot use their existing reserved instances.
