To illustrate the scale and ubiquity of this service, over 2.4 billion Amazon Elastic Container Service tasks are launched every week (source) and over 65% of all new AWS containers customers use Amazon ECS (source). There are two primary launch types for ECS: Fargate and EC2. The choice between them depends on factors like cost, performance, operational overhead, and the variability of your workload.
