Serverless container platforms
- [Instructor] Serverless container platforms combine the flexibility of containers with the operational simplicity of serverless computing. Here are the leading platforms. AWS Fargate leads the market. It has a serverless compute engine for containers that works with both Amazon ECS and EKS. It eliminates the need to manage servers while providing the ability to run containerized applications with automatic scaling capabilities. Google Cloud Run offers a fully managed platform for running stateless containers, automatically scaling from zero to handle incoming traffic. It supports any container that listens for HTTP requests and provides quick deployments with minimum configuration, Azure Container Instance, or ACI, enables rapid container deployment without managing the underlying infrastructure. It offers per second billing and seamless integration with other Azure services. Now, let's take a deeper dive into AWS Lambda, including looking at a demo.
