What are containers and why are customers using them?

What are containers?
A container is an atomic, self-contained package of software that
includes everything it needs to run (code, runtime, libraries,
packages, etc.).
A popular, widely-used container platform is Docker. More on that

Why are containers so popular?
• Portable
• Lightweight
• Standardized
• Easy to deploy
• Along with containers, comes the “monolith to microservices”
story: containers and microservices go hand in hand.

Fargate

AWS Fargate
No cluster or
infrastructure to
manage or scale
Everything is
handled at the
container level
Scale seamlessly
on demand
Underlying technology for container
management
© 2018, Amazon Web Services, Inc. or its Affiliates. All rights reserved.
What does Fargate mean?
No worrying about scaling, service mesh, underlying
infrastructure, cluster resources, capacity, setup.
Just give it a task definition or pod (in 2018), set some
resource limits, and away you go.
© 2018, Amazon Web Services, Inc. or its Affiliates. All rights reserved.
With Fargate: focus on your
workload (job, container,
function, task) first. Full
stop.
© 2018, Amazon Web Services, Inc. or its Affiliates. All rights reserved.
How does this work in practice?
Two launch types for ECS and EKS:
• EC2 (traditional, manage your cluster infrastructure)
• Fargate
