AWS tilbyr flere måter å kjøre kontainere på — ECS (Elastic Container Service, AWS sin egen orkestrator), EKS (administrert Kubernetes), og Fargate (serverløse kontainere, ingen servere å administrere). Å forstå alternativene hjelper deg å velge rett kontainerplattform.
ECS — AWS sin kontainerorkestrator
ECS runs and orchestrates Docker containers on AWS:
→ simpler than Kubernetes; deeply integrated with AWS (IAM, ALB, CloudWatch, VPC)
→ TASK (a running container set), TASK DEFINITION (the spec), SERVICE (keeps N tasks
running, integrates with load balancers, auto-scales)
→ good for teams wanting container orchestration without Kubernetes complexity
