Explanation

AWS Lambda is not suitable for long-running jobs that can take up to 20 minutes, as Lambda has a maximum execution duration of 15 minutes. Amazon ECS with AWS Fargate allows you to run containers without managing EC2 instances, providing a scalable and highly available environment. You can scale Fargate tasks to handle large and parallel video processing jobs. Amazon Aurora is a highly available, managed relational database. S3 Intelligent-Tiering is cost-effective for storing large video files with variable access
