Amazon Elastic Container Service

Amazon Elastic Container Service (ECS) is a cloud-based service that makes it easy to run, manage, and scale applications using containers—think of containers as lightweight, portable packages containing everything an application needs. ECS handles deploying these containers across a network of servers, ensuring they run smoothly and efficiently. It allows organizations to focus on developing their applications without worrying about the underlying infrastructure, providing flexibility, security, and scalability. Essentially, ECS simplifies the process of managing complex applications by automating deployment and resource management in a secure cloud environment.
