AWS Fargate Alternatives: Comparing Serverless Container Options
Imagine you have an API service composed of multiple microservices. Traffic fluctuates — sometimes light, sometimes spiking. Without Fargate, you’d have to manage EC2 instances, autoscaling, patching, and more. With Fargate, you define each microservice as a task, setting the CPU/memory, container image, network rules, and AWS schedules, and then run them as needed. The result: faster deployment, lower ops overhead, and smooth scaling.
Automating your synthetic test infrastructure with Datadog Synthetic Monitoring and Terraform
Testing ecosystems contain massive amounts of data, including outlined test scenarios, prerequisite configurations, and the tests themselves. As a result, these ecosystems are prone to data sprawl. This makes it difficult to prevent configuration drift and quickly spin up new tests, especially at the frequency needed to support a fast-growing application. Teams can handle these challenges by treating their tests as part of their application infrastructure.
