AWS Fargate, the serverless compute engine for Amazon Elastic Container Service (ECS), is now available in Middle East (UAE) Region. Fargate allows customers to deploy and manage containerized applications without having to manage any of the underlying infrastructure. Fargate makes it easier to scale applications and helps improve security through application isolation by design.
With Fargate, billing is at a per second granularity and customers only pay for the amount of vCPU and memory resources consumed by their application. Additionally, customers can deploy interrupt-tolerant applications on Fargate Spot to get up to 70% discount compared to Fargate On-Demand prices. Alternatively, customers can also leverage flexible pricing with Compute Savings Plan and save up to 45% on Fargate in exchange for making a commitment to a consistent amount of compute usage for a 1 or 3 year term. For more information on pricing options, see the Fargate Pricing Page.
AWS Fargate support for Amazon Elastic Kubernetes Service (EKS), AWS Graviton2 Processors, and Amazon ECS Windows containers is not currently available in the Middle East (UAE) Region. For a full list of AWS Regions where Fargate is available, visit the Region Table.
