> The announcement does not specify whether this will also work with EKS (Kubernetes) Fargate but the mounts appear to be on the container level. Given this it seems likely that this will work for EKS also. If you have definitive information about this please let me know and I will send an update next week.

If I remember correctly, EFS is distributed NFS. If they support automatically provisioning AWS EBS blocks, mounting them into a fargate instance, and specifying IOPS/transfer speed/replication they'd surpass most of the offerings from other clouds platforms. Provisioning local/distributed storage (fs & block) is a massive pain in most clouds. AWS is one of the few clouds that I've used that let you provision IOPS and bandwidth. If you can provision block, file system, distributed, local, and specify performance requirements you'd be able to make some really efficient systems with no external DBs.
