AWS ECS Fargate

AWS Fargate is an Amazon Web Services product for running containers with serverless infrastructure, so parts of a platform can use containers without directly managing the underlying servers.

Amazon Elastic Container Service (Amazon ECS) is a managed container orchestration service from Amazon Web Services for deploying, running, and scaling Docker-compatible containers, including Java microservices packaged as Docker containers. It supports AWS-hosted tasks and services through launch types including Amazon EC2 and AWS Fargate, and integrates with other AWS services such as IAM, Elastic Load Balancing, and CloudWatch.

Amazon Bedrock AgentCore is an AWS service for deploying and operating AI agents in production. It provides a framework- and model-agnostic runtime for agents built with systems such as Strands Agents, CrewAI, LangGraph, LlamaIndex, Google ADK, or OpenAI Agents, with support for Python and TypeScript applications. Its capabilities include managed agent runtime hosting, sessions, memory, identity and access management, a gateway for turning APIs, Lambda functions, and services into MCP-compatible tools, built-in tools such as code execution and web search, and OpenTelemetry-based observability for tracing, debugging, and monitoring. The linked AWS Labs repository provides sample applications, tutorials, deployment templates, integrations, and blueprints covering these capabilities. The AgentCore CLI scaffolds projects, supports local development with hot reload and local invocation, and deploys agents to AWS with commands such as `agentcore deploy` and `agentcore invoke`. The samples repository is licensed under Apache 2.0.

Amazon EC2 is Amazon Web Services' cloud compute service, providing secure, resizable computing capacity as part of AWS's cloud-computing platform on a pay-for-use basis. It provides sandboxed virtual-machine environments inside a VPC for running agents securely, with a broad choice of processors, storage, networking, operating systems, and purchase models. EC2 instances can serve as raw cloud machines for setting up complete development environments intended to mirror a local workstation.
