AWS made several announcements related to its container offerings, including the public preview of AWS Proton and the official launch of the Amazon Elastic public container registry.

AWS first announced ECS Anywhere at the re:Invent conference last year, where it also rolled out Proton, a new deployment service for container-based and serverless applications.

OpenAI’s new models are available on AWS cloud for Amazon Bedrock and SageMaker AI customers, CEO Matt Garman says.

Complementing the new container offering is AWS Fargate, which allows users to run either EKS or ECS to deploy containers without having to manage servers or clusters. "It’s a tricky problem.

Elastic Container Service can be used to manage containers across both AWS’ public cloud infrastructure and its AWS Outposts hybrid cloud appliances, which customers deploy on-premises.

Customers can deploy third-party Kubernetes apps to on-premises environments via Amazon EKS Anywhere, or in any customer self-managed Kubernetes cluster located on-prem, or in Amazon EC2, AWS said.
