3. What does Fargate mean?
No worrying about scaling, service mesh, underlying
infrastructure, cluster resources, capacity, setup.
Just give it a task definition or pod (in 2018), set some resource
limits, and away you go.

FAQ: how do I exec into a Fargate container?
Short Answer: you don’t
Longer answer: if it were me, I’d stop the Fargate container and restart
as type EC2 for debugging, then switch back over. Long term,
something we’re looking at building.
