-<p>After moving from <a href="https://www.rackspace.com/">Rackspace</a> to <a href="https://aws.amazon.com/">AWS</a> in 2015, <a href="https://vsco.co/">VSCO</a> began building <a href="https://nodejs.org/en/">Node.js</a> and <a href="https://golang.org/">Go</a> microservices in addition to running its <a href="http://php.net/">PHP monolith</a>. The team containerized the microservices using <a href="https://www.docker.com/">Docker</a>, but "they were all in separate groups of <a href="https://aws.amazon.com/ec2/">EC2</a> instances that were dedicated per service," says Melinda Lu, Engineering Manager for the Machine Learning Team. Adds Naveen Gattu, Senior Software Engineer on the Community Team: "That yielded a lot of wasted resources. We started looking for a way to consolidate and be more efficient in the AWS EC2 instances."</p>
