Just looking into how to properly host DataHub for our needs. I've engaged Acryl to see what a managed service costs but I'm also looking into the possibility of hosting in our AWS account. Your documentation suggests EKS but it seems that ECS on Fargate might be a better solution. Is there a specific reason EKS is the preferred method in the documentation or is it mostly personal preference due to individual requirements?

I think it's mainly to be cloud-agnostic to the extent possibility. EKS is much more general purpose, decoupled from AWS specifics
ECS may indeed be a simpler solution for some companies, however. We're interested in working with someone to get it deployed there, with the result being a doc that can be shared out with the broader community detailing how to do it

Depending on the path we take, I may be able to provide you with some documentation on the steps we used to get it deployed on ECS. That said we are still deciding if we want to go SaaS or host it ourselves.

Got it! Thanks for the background 🙂

Hello, I've been trying to find some documentation on DataHub ECS deployment, but I couldn't locate it. I was wondering if someone could point me in the right direction or provide any relevant documentation.
