Reading this I just want them all to drop the incomprehensible acronyms.

Even the terms wouldn't probably make sense unless you've used them. Elastic Block Storage - I surely didn't get what it was supposed to do when I read it loud the first time.

Elastic Container Service - "Why the heck is it Elastic!?" was my reaction the first time I read the term.

There is no Elastic Container Service. ECS stands for EC2 Container Service.

I realise this isn't any better :-)
