Thanks for responding! Can you say how you deal with the significant latencies over multiple AZs?

Also, would you mind answering my other question about whether or not I can run Marathon or Chronos against ECS since it runs Mesos under the hood?

Can you elaborate on the intra- inter-* latencies your are seeing? for AZ independent services this should single digits.

When I'm balancing a single deployment across multiple AZs (e.g. US-East -> US-West), the latencies between the containers seem far higher than just the 200-300ms predicted by speed of light. Am I doing something wrong?

No mesos under the hood. You can bring mesos as your own scheduler.

Thanks again - this is really helpful. I had talked to someone who had left Amazon but knew the internal workings who said ECS was Mesos just privately branded like Chef -> OpsWorks, but I guess I must have misunderstood.

Thanks for clarifying!
