What is the difference between the customer success recipe for <https://github.com/PrefectHQ/customer-success-recipes/tree/main/aws/prefect/prefect-agent-on-eks|EKS deployment> vs EKS on Fargate as shown <https://medium.com/the-prefect-blog/orchestrating-elt-on-kubernetes-with-prefect-dbt-snowflake-part-2-d915f5a65e59#ef70|here>?

I'm not a DevOps Engineer, so my "recipe" is simply using `eksctl` to create the infrastructure; under the hood, it deploys a CloudFormation template for you.

The Customer Success recipe is using Terraform - that's the main difference.

also, just to clarify - in this post, I actually was using vanilla EKS (single EC2 instance, always-on data plane) rather than EKS on Fargate. But you could use `eksctl` to deploy a Kubernetes cluster with EKS on Fargate instead (serverless data plane) - both are valid options and you can find more about it in the eksctl documentation - they have excellent docs, I'm a huge fan of this library

got it, thanks so much Anna I'll look into this immediately!
