memory

The amount (in MiB) of memory used by the task.

If your tasks runs on Amazon EC2 instances, you must specify either a task-level memory value or a container-level memory value. This field is optional and any value can be used. If a task-level memory value is specified, the container-level memory value is optional. For more information regarding container-level memory and memory reservation, see ContainerDefinition.

If your tasks runs on Fargate, this field is required. You must use one of the following values. The value you choose determines your range of valid values for the cpu parameter.
