AWS Fargate emphasizes independence in deployment, simplifying processes without needing Kubernetes expertise. Its ease of use and automatic scaling for variable workloads make it ideal for quick deployment. Fargate's integration with AWS services enhances functionality, supporting seamless monitoring and improved efficiency. Users appreciate its cost-effectiveness and ability to scale services according to demand, enabling flexible infrastructure management. Fargate's self-managed nature and compatibility with containerization are highly valued across diverse applications.
- "The best thing about AWS Fargate is that I don't need to worry about the proper provisioning of infrastructure for my task, and it's very fast in terms of scaling my containers; it's much faster than other solutions."
- "AWS Fargate has definitely impacted our organization positively because before that, we couldn't accommodate the workload requirements as flexibly as we can with Fargate."
- "AWS Fargate is a fully managed service, and it's very easy to use compared to other services like Elastic Beanstalk Service (EBS)."
AWS Fargate requires improvements in cost management and prediction, setup complexity, and user-friendliness. Users find challenges with integrating microservices, lack of control, privileged mode container issues, and robustness in monitoring and error handling. There are requests for enhanced documentation, better dashboard versions, and improved scaling features. Current users appreciate simplicity but wish for container management similar to Kubernetes and seek enhanced auto-scaling, faster application scaling, and improved integration with AWS services.
- "There could be improvements for AWS Fargate regarding cost as it is expensive compared to running on EC2."
- "AWS Fargate's security features weren't the most important criteria or value we got from AWS Fargate."
- "As I have not worked with Fargate extensively, I do not have any specific improvements."
