#12Does this integrate with persistent volumes to allow you to mount EBS into these? If so this is a great offering since it directly integrates with VPC, EBS, ELBs, and everything with no node overhead to worry about.
"Currently there is no support for stateful workloads that require persistent volumes or file systems."
EKS currently has some issues with EBS that make it a pain that Fargate VMs would make go away

That's unfortunate. This went from killer product to meh. EKS currently has some issues with EBS that make it a pain that Fargate VMs would make go away
AWS could really do more in the area of making it super easy to get a hybrid managed database.
I run a DB that AWS does not have managed support for, it would be great to have managed backups, managed patching, autoscaling, etc.

Yeah, it makes it a non-starter for me. AWS could really do more in the area of making it super easy to get a hybrid managed database. I run a DB that AWS does not have managed support for, it would be great to have managed backups, managed patching, autoscaling, etc.

#15I just use fargate directly (ECS I guess) - it works pretty nicely for small apps. I was reading someone wanted EKS but the $180/month for management layer was way too much. Do people use EKS for tiny projects? It seems like a lot of complexity to carry around.
