ECS

ECS (Elastic Container Service) is a fully managed container orchestration service that makes deploying, managing, and scaling containerized applications easy. Virtana Platform provides comprehensive visibility, analytics, and automation across the hybrid cloud environments, enabling optimized performance, cost, and capacity management for these applications.

To view ECS details, perform the following steps:

  1. Log in to the Container Observability application.

  2. On the sidebar menu, click Applications and select ECS.

You can analyze any cluster from ECS. An ECS cluster is the fundamental logical grouping of resources, which can be configured with EC2 instances or Fargate.

  • EC2 instances: An EC2 instance is essentially a virtual machine where you run your applications on demand. You have to choose the instance type, the number of instances, and manage the capacity.

  • Fargate: It is a serverless, pay-as-you-go compute engine. With Fargate, you don't need to manage servers, handle capacity planning, or isolate container workloads for security.
