@Marvin Our team is moving from prefect deployment with EC2 to using ECS, and wondering whether to go with ECS Push workpool or ECS Hybrid model with a worker. From what I gather, the only difference is the hybrid model needs to set up a worker up front and has more maintenance overhead, but it allows for more custom configurations. In which instances would we want to use hybrid model with worker instead of the Push?

Based on the documentation and guides retrieved: 1. ECS Push Work Pool: - Simplifies setup and reduces maintenance by leveraging Prefect Cloud to manage infrastructure interactions. - Ideal for teams wanting a managed experience with less overhead. - Suitable for straightforward use-cases with standard configurations. 2. ECS Hybrid Work Pool with Worker: - Requires setting up a worker upfront and has higher maintenance. - Offers increased flexibility and custom configurations. - Better suited for complex scenarios where you need custom control over the ECS tasks. You might prefer the Hybrid model if you have specific, non-standard requirements that necessitate deep customization of ECS tasks or if you need tighter integration with other AWS services and controls. For most cases where standard configurations suffice, the Push Work Pool should be adequate and easier to manage. For more details, you can review the ECS Worker Guide and the Push Work Pools Documentation.
