Why is AWS Fargate so amazing?

  • It automatically provisions and monitors the load on our compute resources so we don’t have to

  • It auto-scales our app so meet traffic loads, and scales back to reduce costs

  • It turns a traditional app into a “serverless” one

Learning methodology:

We take a learn-by-doing approach. In a matter of minutes, you’ll have a running NodeJS Express application. Over the course of the lectures you’ll develop your very own To Do List backend application.
