Amazon Elastic Container Service (ECS) is purpose-built to help you run your architecture in an efficient, automated, and scalable manner. There is no additional charge for Amazon ECS. You pay for AWS resources (for example, Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud [Amazon EC2] instances or Amazon Elastic Block Store [Amazon EBS] volumes) you create to store and run your application. You only pay for what you use, as you use it; there are no minimum fees and no upfront commitments.
Amazon ECS charge models
There are two different charge models for Amazon ECS. Amazon ECS on AWS Outposts follows the same model as Amazon EC2 Launch Type.
AWS Fargate Launch Type Model
With AWS Fargate, you pay for the amount of vCPU and memory resources that your containerized application requests. vCPU and memory resources are calculated from the time your container images are pulled until the Amazon ECS Task terminates, rounded up to the nearest second. A minimum charge of one minute applies.
There is no additional charge for Amazon EC2 launch type. You pay for AWS resources (such as Amazon EC2 instances, Amazon EBS volumes, or public IPv4 addresses) you create to store and run your application. You only pay for what you use, as you use it; there are no minimum fees and no upfront commitments.
Amazon ECS on AWS Outposts pricing is simple and works the same as it does in the cloud: the Amazon ECS control plane is in the cloud (not on Outposts) and your container instances run on the Outposts EC2 capacity at no additional charge.
