We do not support either OOTB. Given the industry wide acceptance of kubernetes (k8s) as the standard container orchestration platform, most of our current work is based on EKS (or AKS for Azure), etc. You should take that into consideration if you are still early in your planning stage. Check the Pega cloud choice link and watch for new upcoming exciting news regarding K8S support from Pega: https://www.pega.com/products/cloud/customer-managed-cloud

Since this response is about an year old, with latest updates, are these combinations supported ?
1. PEGA Infinity on EKS with AWS FarGate
2. PEGA Infinity on ECS with AWS FarGate
In the documentation https://www.pega.com/products/cloud/customer-managed-cloud, it's clearly stated that AWS EKS is supported but it does not call out anything on leveraging Fargate.
