Explanation
Elastic Compute Service (ECS) is an IaaS offering on Alibaba Cloud that provides high-performance, stable, reliable, and scalable compute capacity in the cloud. ECS eliminates your need to invest in hardware up front.
You can create as many or as few instances as you need in response to changes in requirements or popularity of your workloads. With an ever-growing selection of instance types, ECS provides broader and deeper choices to match a wide spectrum of computing needs. References: What is ECS? - Alibaba Cloud
