i would say the "simplest" setup for us has been ECS fargate (even thought there's some major lock in). Very easy to spin up a cluster and you don't have to manage the underlying structure. If you use docker-compose or equivalent for local dev you just define your tasks/services and launch. Even pulling in ENVs is easy with SSM.
- politelemon 5y agoWhat kind of lock-in? One of the reasons I started using it was due to the minimal lock-in, so we've arrived at different conclusions. A task definition is required, which is sort of a docker-compose.yml analogue, but it's also possible to use docker compose directly with ECS Fargate. So my 'get out of AWS' is pretty simple, I already have the docker-compose.yml ready.
- ookblah 5y agoi suppose what i mean is you'd never be able to take a ECS task definition/service and move it over to some other provider. whereas if u did some kubernetes setup u could conceivably do that, moving form AWS to GCP.
