AWS CTO Werner Vogels outlines a new service that could scale Docker container technology. The move also speaks to the developer base.

Amazon Web Services today announced a major feature, the EC2 Container Service, for launching, managing, and deleting containers to hold developers’ application code.

AWS already offers tools to help enterprises migrate workloads from rival platforms and, for that matter, so do its top rivals Microsoft Corp. and Google LLC.

Amazon Web Services (AWS) Inc. unveiled the Amazon EC2 Container Service (ECS) with Docker support on Thursday.
