Jobs

Jobs are the unit of work that's started by AWS Batch. Jobs can be invoked as containerized applications that run on Amazon ECS container instances in an ECS cluster.

Containerized jobs can reference a container image, command, and parameters. For more information, see JobDefinition.

You can submit a large number of independent, simple jobs.
