Reply To: Doubt regarding one of the AWS Solution Architect Professional Practice question

Hello Arghya,

Thanks for posting here.

Fargate is fully capable of managing continuous workloads, much like the ECS + EC2 setup. AWS Fargate is not ECS’ version of AWS Lambda — Fargate tasks can keep running indefinitely and don’t have any timeout restrictions like Lambda function have. I think the decision to opt for Fargate over EC2 lies more on your willingness to trade off higher costs for the convenience of less operational overhead.

Let me know if this helps.
