AWS Certified Solutions Architect Associate SAA-C03 Practice Question
A development team needs to deploy a fleet of containers that can automatically adjust to traffic fluctuations without having to provision, patch, or scale the underlying servers. They also want the highest level of infrastructure abstraction while still using an AWS-managed orchestrator. Which AWS service best meets these requirements?
AWS Fargate is a serverless compute engine for containers that works with both Amazon ECS and Amazon EKS. It eliminates the need to manage or scale the cluster's EC2 instances and automatically provisions the right amount of compute, providing the greatest level of abstraction and elasticity. Using ECS with the EC2 launch type still requires managing the instances. Lambda is optimized for individual functions, not orchestrated container fleets. EMR is a managed big-data platform, not a container orchestrator.
