hard📝 Application Q9 of 15
AWS - ECS and Fargate
A company wants to optimize costs by running container workloads that require specific GPU instances. Which launch type should they choose and why?
AEC2 launch type, because Fargate does not support GPU instances
BFargate launch type, because it supports GPU workloads automatically
CFargate launch type, because it allows selecting GPU instance types
DNeither, because ECS does not support GPU workloads
Step-by-Step Solution
Solution:

  1. Step 1: Check GPU support in launch types

    Fargate currently does not support GPU-enabled instances.

  2. Step 2: Choose launch type for GPU workloads

    EC2 launch type allows selecting GPU instance types for containers.

  3. Final Answer:

    EC2 launch type, because Fargate does not support GPU instances -> Option A

  4. Quick Check:

    GPU support = EC2 launch type only [OK]
Quick Trick: GPU workloads need EC2 launch type [OK]
Common Mistakes:
  • Assuming Fargate supports GPU instances
  • Thinking ECS does not support GPU workloads at all
