Fargate compute environments

Fargate is a technology that you can use with AWS Batch to run containers without having to manage servers or clusters of Amazon EC2 instances. With Fargate, you no longer have to provision, configure, or scale clusters of virtual machines to run containers. This removes the need to choose server types, decide when to scale your clusters, or optimize cluster packing.

When you run your jobs with Fargate resources, you package your application in containers, specify the CPU and memory requirements, define networking and IAM policies, and launch the application. Each Fargate job has its own isolation boundary and does not share the underlying kernel, CPU resources, memory resources, or elastic network interface with another job.
