Explore use of EC2 vs Fargate #3

Description

@wltan

Currently we are using Fargate to manage our tasks. However, it takes a long time to initialize each task as the container image must be pulled each time.

It may be possible to speed up the initialization if EC2 is used instead, as caching is available:

A possible trade-off is that the number of EC2 instances are managed manually, making it less flexible when there are many concurrent users.
