Which AWS compute option—Lambda, Fargate, or EC2—is the best fit for your backend in 2025?

Compares AWS services for serverless, containerized, and VM workloads in terms of scaling, control, cost, and complexity. :white_check_mark: Answer: AWS Lambda best suits event-driven or intermittent workloads—auto-scales and uses usage-based pricing. AWS Fargate is ideal for containerized microservices without infrastructure overhead. EC2 offers full virtual server control—necessary for legacy systems, custom environments, or persistent services. Choose based on whether you need functions, container runtime, or full VM control. :ship:turn0search3:walking:
