Lambda, Fargate, EC2… which one should you use?

Hi there 👋

After a long break, I’m back with a fresh article on Thoughtful Architect. This time, I take a deep dive into AWS Compute Services — Lambda, Fargate, App Runner, ECS, EKS, and of course, good old EC2.

👉 The post covers:

• Key differences in cost, scaling, and complexity

• When to use serverless vs containers vs VMs

• My recommendations for real-world workloads

• 📚 Affiliate book picks if you want to dig deeper into AWS compute

As always, I’d love to hear your thoughts — reply to this email and let me know what you’re using in your projects.
