What do you like best about Amazon Elastic Container Service (Amazon ECS)?

the large amount of instances and programming tools they provide which make the work more scalable and elastic. applications on linux instances costs less than those on windows and also it helps in the overall costs.the best thing about EC2 is the version control and it does it in its own best way as follows:Closely coupled with the development environment Version control is the heart and soul of any source based application, and there's no reason not to put this on something like an EC2 server. The bandwidth usage is minimal. The guaranteed backed up aspect is a huge load off the restless mind, and the next time you have to run reports on the last three hundred and seventy five thousand revisions… it does not bring your real (or test) environment reaching to a rather annoying halt!

What do you dislike about Amazon Elastic Container Service (Amazon ECS)?

the cost and some things which makes some extra work and also covering the costs and allocating the resources on demand was tough. We should add our own security precautions like that on any server although it is with them and that's one of the main issues as we have to do the installation and maintenance of the features we installed.

I, first of all, I like the great price and compatibility with the millions of AWS products out there. The system works flawlessly and continuously, regardless of traffic, time of day, or any other factor.

I dislike the complexity and lack of user-friendliness required to deploy containers as a service, though I appreciate the flexibility this affords.

What do you dislike about Amazon Elastic Container Service (Amazon ECS)?

Small-medium stuff can be super expensive and not worth it compared to other solutions. I would say try to keep it super small or scale big to get a better deal.
