Honest question, who is still on bare ec2 anymore?
- kavehkhorram 5y agoMany of our customers are on EKS or ECS backed by EC2!
- mostlysimilar 5y agoHuh? What is wrong with "bare" EC2 instances?
- stackedinserter 5y agoWe are, AMA.
- matwood 5y agoNot sure what you mean by bare, but my ECS clusters are backed by a mix of ondemand and spot instances.
- tedmiston 5y agoI have found ECS Fargate just running containers directly to be more convenient for most of my services and workloads. But I do occasionally miss some of the features that don't have analogies in ECS Fargate (yet).
- say_it_as_it_is 5y agoAre you asking that cuz serverless is the new marketing hotness? There's a big world of tech beyond your bubble and it's not running lambdas.
- ComradePhil 5y agoEveryone running profitable companies on the cloud. "Serverless" is basically AWS making money off of your technical debt and uncertainty. It is cheaper to run your prototype with lambdas and "managed services" but as soon as it scales to a certain point, you're much better off with bare VMs reserved and orchestrated as per your business needs.
- vasili111 5y agoWhat y about containers that can be freely moved between clouds and on premise?
