AWS SAA-C03 · Question 47 · Domain 3.2: Compute Performance

A company is migrating a monolithic application to microservices using Docker containers. They want AWS to manage the container orchestration. They do not want to manage the underlying EC2 instances. Which TWO services should they use together? (Select TWO.)

Answer options:

A.

Amazon Elastic Container Service (ECS)

B.

Amazon EC2

C.

AWS Fargate

D.

AWS Elastic Beanstalk

E.

AWS Lambda

How to approach this question

Identify the orchestrator (ECS or EKS) and the serverless compute engine (Fargate).

Full Answer

Amazon ECS is a highly scalable, high-performance container orchestration service. AWS Fargate is a serverless compute engine for containers that works with ECS (and EKS), allowing you to run containers without having to provision or manage the underlying EC2 instances.

Common mistakes

Selecting EC2 when the prompt explicitly asks to avoid managing instances.
