Amazon Elastic Container Service (Amazon ECS) Reviews & Product Details - Page 12

I like how it simplifies and manages many aspects of running services. In particular, I like using Fargate because I no longer need to worry about instances and auto scaling groups. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I found it somewhat difficult at times to find the documentation I was looking for. I think it would be helpful to have a more centralized location for finding documentation relating to ECS. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

ECS has been very easy to understand and learn. I've been primarily experimenting with it as well as Docker and the learning curve hasn't been bad at all. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

At this point, I am unsure what I would even be missing with this product as I am pretty new to it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

We migrated docker containers deployed in EC2 earlier, and gradually migrated to AWS ECS and also FARGATE, it drastically reduced the time of deployment, it has monitoring and logging integrated, much easier than starting from scratch. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

We like most of the features provided by AWS ECS, but when we starts to migrate more workload to serverless, we fell AWS ECS is not as straighforward as Kubernets, it lack deployment tools for large application. When comes to troubleshoot, it's little tedious. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

ECS makes it easy to configure, deploy, and manage your containers. The auto-scaling is better than straight EC2, the deployments are simplified with cloudformation, and the product is much simpler than Kubernetes. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I do not like that you cannot register a container with multiple load balancers. This is a big problem, but nobody seems to want to fix it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

it is good for doing poc, development and test. Fargate is much likely to next step for that. ECS has given small test capacity and also fast release and test Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

some of work load is slow to launch new container, what happens when we try to scal this using some event and monitoring system, it takes time to scal. Slowness is very noticable and cannot be accepted Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I find cloudformation to be pretty easy to digest and understand. I am excited to see what new features will be released. I really like using the yaml syntax over json!! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Sometimes the validation rules can get in the way of our deploy pipeline. I look forward to better documentation around errors and linting procedures that will allow me to deploy quicker and easier. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The implementation of Fargate and ability to management container from console as well as CLI Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

No way to the hard limit CPU. The console on the Task Defination listing page for searching is really bad. After typing the keyword and press enter, the result sometime will not display and you have to keep clicking to next page until you found the task defination or not.

We have reduced by 99% the time to launch a new instance. This reduce a lot the time to the OPS team to do repeated tasks. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

We don't have something specific that we don't like in our company. However, a negative impact to our business could be maintenance windows, where we have to stop/start an instance to accomodate an alert and move to another hypervisor. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Fargate removes the overhead of managing EC2 servers (patching, managing, handling disk storage, etc) and provides great uptime for our services. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

There are a few limitations that prevent us from moving our entire environment to Fargate; To note is inability to attach EBS or EFS storage, inability to run containers in privileged mode, disk storage limit to 10GB. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

With ECS we are able to easily deploy our containers to production without any downtime to our customers. THe loggin capabilities and the high availability options allows us to maintain an almost zero downtime and anytime deploy Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

There seems to be a high learning curve when it comes to setting up and adding features like loggin our adding new conatiners Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
