Amazon Elastic Container Service(ECS) is also good, and we like it, but the least likable aspects of ECS are deployments and creating necessary resources on AWS.

In this tutorial, we are going to deploy a Serverless Kubernetes cluster on Amazon Elastic Kubernetes Service(EKS) using Cloud Development Kit(CDK) and we will leverage AWS Fargate...
