Compute Types​

  1. Compute
  2. Container
  3. Serviceless

Choosing a Compute Option​

  1. When you have compute-intensive or memory-intensive application
  • EC2 provide consistent and predictable amount of CPU.
  • You can access underlying files.
  • EC2 work with other Services
  • EC2 for long-running, stateful application.
  • type, size or storage.
  • optimized for use cases.
  • versatile and reliable.
  • pay for what you use.
  1. Considerations for containers
  • small application runs under 15 minutes but compute intensive.
  • large monolithic application.
  • no need persistent data storage.
  • no need complex networking, routing, or security requirement.
  1. Consideration of Serverless
  • building, testing and deploying a lot and want to focus on code.
  • less compute intensive.
  • small, simple, or modular.
  • one serivce call another service.
  • run less than 15 minutes.
