>> Fargate, K8s

This is partially because the customers of AWS do not care too much about these solutions. I have seen other solutions used by large customers (still probably classified as a niche) getting improved over time significantly. Fargate and k8s offers very little over a well designed EC2 cluster. This might be another reason.

I think that’s right. ECS for example is mature and in my opinion still the most robust and scalable “container-as-a-service” out there. In spite of the kubernetes hype, I suspect that ECS is more successful than any hosted kubernetes hosted solution out there (in terms of aggregate workload volume and revenue).

EKS on the other hand still feels like a checkbox service.
