我阅读了AmazonECS文档和this文章，其中对每个术语进行了基本解释，包括：
Container Instance —这只是EC2实例，属于ECS集群，并在其上运行docker和ecs-agent。
我有点困惑。我认为每个task都是一个container，它运行在EC2 instance集群的一部分ECS上。那么EC2 instance怎么会这样被称呼呢？还是EC2 instance还是container我错过了什么？
答案 0 :(得分：3)
当您想到容器实例时，请考虑：
被配置为通过具有ECS代理并成为ECS集群的一部分来运行容器（ECS任务）的EC2实例。
从本质上讲，ECS会跟踪与集群关联的EC2实例，包括有关它们的元数据。这意味着除了被作为EC2实例进行跟踪之外，它们还被作为“容器实例”进行跟踪。如果您已安装AWS CLI，请查看aws ecs describe-container-instances，以了解有关容器实例的一些元数据。
$ aws ecs describe-container-instances --container-instance <container instance>

但是，不，ECS容器实例不是AFAIK，而是容器本身。它们是配置为使用ECS运行容器的虚拟服务器。
