AWS Batch for ECS Fargate now supports AWS Graviton-based compute with AWS Fargate Spot. This capability helps you run fault-tolerant Arm-based applications with up to 70% discount compared to Fargate prices. AWS Graviton processors are custom-built by AWS to deliver the best price-performance for cloud workloads.
AWS Batch for ECS Fargate enables customers to deploy and build workloads at scale in a serverless manner. Starting today, customers can further optimize for costs by running fault-tolerant Arm-based workloads on AWS Fargate Spot. To get started, create a new Fargate configured Compute Environment (CE), select ARM64 as the cpuArchitecture, and choose FARGATE_SPOT as the type. You can then connect it to existing job queues or create a new one for your workload. AWS Batch will leverage spare AWS Graviton-based compute capacity available in the AWS cloud for running your service or task. You can now get the simplicity of serverless compute with familiar cost optimization levers of Spot capacity with Graviton-based compute.
This capability is now available for AWS Batch in all commercial and the AWS GovCloud (US) Regions. To learn more, see Batch’s updated RuntimePlatform API and AWS Batch for ECS Fargate documentation.
