A developer has an application that fetches data from an external API, processes it, and stores the output in Amazon S3. The application is containerized and has minimal resource requirements. The developer has an existing Amazon ECS cluster and needs to schedule the application to run hourly with minimal infrastructure management. What is the most efficient solution?
Explanation:
The correct answer is C: Use AWS Fargate for task execution within the ECS cluster. AWS Fargate is a serverless compute engine for containers that removes the need to provision and manage servers. By using Fargate, the developer can run the application in an Amazon ECS cluster without managing the underlying infrastructure. Fargate automatically provisions and scales the necessary compute resources, which minimizes operational overhead and ensures efficient use of resources. This makes it the most efficient solution for running the application with minimal infrastructure management.
