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

I'm using ECS with FARGATE, the scalability of the service is fantastic. We have a lot of microservices running and we hardly care about the microservice's scaling by deploying it in ECS Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Nothing much, but configuring the service is a little lengthy. Implementing the load balancer was a little harder on the side, Making the steps easier end up in a 99.99% great service Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Amazon Elastic Container Service (Amazon ECS) solving and how is that benefiting you?

We were using EC2 for our monolithic architecture. After we reached a certain point, we needed to implement microservices for our product with scalability and availability. It was worth giving a try ECS with FARGATE Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
