Amazon ECS Managed Instances now supports Amazon EC2 instance store

News



This article announces that Amazon ECS Managed Instances now supports Amazon EC2 instance store volumes as a data volume option for container workloads.

  • Instance store volumes reduce storage costs and improve I/O performance for latency-sensitive workloads
  • Configure custom ECS Managed Instances capacity provider to enable local storage
  • Select EC2 instance types that include instance store volumes
  • ECS automatically provisions EBS volumes when instance store is unavailable
  • Feature available in all commercial AWS Regions where ECS Managed Instances operates

This enhancement allows users to optimize storage costs and performance by leveraging instance store volumes instead of EBS for container workloads.
