Tasks and Services currently run on ECS using Fargate as the capacity provider.
AWS has just launched ECS Managed Instances as a new capacity provider that is, as I understand it, largely backwards compatible with Fargate. It supports more granular control over instances, allowing things like GPU support.
We'd be super interested in being able to run GPU workloads as Tasks. Is it feasible to add support for running them through ECS Managed Instances? Or, as in #6131, is it already possible to transform the Task to use Managed Instances? (I know that issue is asking about blue/green deployments, which are not the same thing — just wondering if the strategy is also feasible here!)

Thanks!
