I’ve made a comment below, but long story short we’ve moved to Kubernetes running on Fargate and we don’t have downtime anymore.

Sure, one can break anything, but our anecdotal experience is we’re now focused on actually delivering code rather than fretting about node failures.

You can't run all types of workloads on Fargate. At least not yet.

That’s fair, for example I couldn’t manage to run clustered Redis. Something with EFS file system that Fargate nodes use.
