Insights from 68 People Who Care About AWS Container Security
In late 2019, Amazon Web Services’ Developer Advocate Michael Hausenblas surveyed 68 people who use containers on AWS. The publicly available results provide several anecdotal clues about adoption patterns among customers of the world’s largest cloud provider. Among this small group of containers users, half are using Amazon Elastic Kubernetes Service (EKS) on EC2 instance. AWS Fargate also has a strong presence but is not exclusively a Kubernetes story. Instead, many use Fargate to deploy containers via either Amazon Elastic Container Service (ECS) or EKS.
Here are some more Kubernetes-related conclusions:
- Amazon ECS without Kubernetes is still common.
- Amazon EKS on EC2 is dominant.
- Fargate use is substantial.
- Fargate and Kubernetes can co-exist.
