Amazon Web Services: Compute, Containers & Serverless

There’s no single right way to run software on AWS. Each workload deserves its own answer.

Matching Compute to Workload

Your applications run on whatever was set up first, and you aren’t sure it’s still the right fit. Maybe servers sit idle, or traffic spikes slow everything down.

AWS gives you many ways to run software: EC2 virtual servers, ECS, EKS and Fargate for containers, and Lambda for serverless code that runs only when triggered. We pick the right service for each workload and manage the ongoing operations that keep it running.

What We Run for You

EC2 and Auto Scaling Group setup

Container workloads on ECS, EKS and Fargate

Serverless setups built on Lambda

Lower costs, whichever way your software runs

How We Place Workloads

1

Profile Workloads

We review each workload’s traffic patterns and behavior before recommending anything.

2

Choose Compute

EC2 usually fits traditional software, containers fit modern apps, and Lambda fits jobs that run on a trigger.

3

Set Scaling

Auto Scaling Groups and target tracking policies get realistic limits based on your real traffic.

4

Manage Operations

We handle cluster upgrades, daily operations and cost tuning, whichever way each workload runs.

Why Choose System Strats

We run real AWS production workloads across compute, data and serverless, and we know where the platform’s traps live. That’s why we decide workload by workload and skip the one-size answers.

Frequently Asked Questions

It depends on the workload. Use EC2 for traditional workloads, containers (ECS, EKS or Fargate) for modern applications, and Lambda for event-driven and request-driven work. We choose per workload, with no fixed preference.

Yes. We run EKS environments for clients who need Kubernetes, handling cluster design, upgrades and day-to-day operations.

For variable, event-driven workloads, usually yes. For steady high-traffic workloads, provisioned compute is often cheaper. We analyze yours before recommending either.

We use Auto Scaling Groups, target tracking policies and service-level autoscaling. Scaling limits come from your real traffic patterns, rather than guesses.
