good for microsevices approach - spinning of instances on fly Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

not a good candidate for monolithic n there shld be some provisioning Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

This AWS service is very easy to get started and get it working. very robust and offers all the necessary insights expected from a service such as this Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The monitoring integration/capability of this service is very bad, unless I have custom cloudwatch monitoring in place, which is tedious at times. Need better inbuilt monitoring and logging features to make it the best in class Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like the fact that you only pay for what you use. Since I do not have users after 6pm I turn my instance off every night and save money. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

We use the AWS ECS because there is so much community support behind it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

No immediate concerns with the product. I mainly administer it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The force new deployment checkbox was a game changer!!! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

- the UI is really unintuative and slow

- "active" and "primary" are really confusing names

- it's frustrating that we can't use an old task def once there is a new primay (active?). sometimes in urgent situations when we've rolled out a bug or bad deploy, what we've ended up doing as a workaround is copying and editing the raw JSON and manually creating a new task def

- 3000 container limit per service is frustrating Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Going serverless has really helped us deploy changes faster. It's helped us build a product faster. And we're able to break an old monolith down into small components. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It's a little confusing trying to run a task without a service - especially when this is a one off task that you don't want to schedule with ECS' cron like scheduler. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Everything but mostly the EC2 Linux + Networking pre-configured cluster, this identifies by far the most common necessities when running this environment. Also the integration with ECR. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Is hard to say, but in the generality this should be the short documentation about it. There should be more examples or diversified environments. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
