Builders Skill Sprint – Containers Month

🚀 AWS User Group Madurai | Builders Skill Sprint – November Edition: 🌩️ Containers Month

This time, we’re stepping into the world of containers on AWS! 🧱✨
From startups to enterprises, containers have become the foundation of scalable, portable, and resilient cloud architectures. But with multiple services to choose from — ECS, EKS, Fargate, App Runner — how do you pick the right one? And once you’re running on EKS, how do you automate and optimize your clusters for performance and cost?

That’s exactly what we’ll uncover in Checkpoint 1 of our November Sprint.
