Building an EKS cluster requires choosing how your containers will actually run - either on EC2 instances you manage or through AWS Fargate's pod-by-pod approach.

## Tangent: Azure Table Storage vs. Cosmos DB

Cosmos DB also has a Azure Table API and marketing material saying it's a better choice than Azure Table Storage. My take is Azure Table and Cosmos DB's Table API both provide key-value storage with distinct trade-offs. Azure Table Storage is cost-effective and ideal for simpler, predictable workloads, requiring minimal complexity. Cosmos DB's Table API adds flexibility, optional global distribution, and tunable consistency, but also brings more complexity and cost.
