  4. Automatic, event-driven compute service
    Pricing:
    • Open Source
    AWS Lambda is a "serverless" service that enables running code in the cloud. With Lambda, application developers can package code written in a variety of programming languages - including Java, Go, C#, Python, Powershell, Node.js, and Ruby - into a callable function that complies with their language's Lambda interface. They can then upload these Lambda functions to their AWS accounts, where they can be executed from anywhere over the Internet.

    Elastic Container Service. ECS is AWS's scalable, enterprise-grade solution for running Docker containers. Containers can be deployed either on an Amazon EC2 cluster hosted in your AWS account or using Fargate, AWS's serverless container deployment solution. (For more, check out my recent article on using EC2 clusters vs. Fargate for your Docker deployments.).
