What is AWS Fargate? Definition, Tutorial, Examples
Blog post from Spacelift
AWS Fargate is a serverless compute engine offered by Amazon Web Services (AWS) for running containerized applications, enabling users to focus on building their applications while it takes care of the underlying infrastructure. It functions as an abstraction layer above the hardware and operating system, allowing users to focus solely on developing and running their applications without the burden of handling any operational tasks. AWS Fargate is designed with a security-first approach, offering isolation between pods or tasks, enhanced networking capabilities, and seamless integration with other AWS services such as ECS and EKS. It operates on the pay-as-you-go model, ensuring cost savings by not charging for idle capacity and reducing operational burden.
