I really hope it can replace PgBouncer. We've spent way too much time getting it running in ECS, mostly due to us needing a separate PgBouncer service for the primary and replica RDS instances. And then a third ECS service running HAProxy in TCP mode to load balance between the PgBouncer services, to provide a read-only endpoint that balances between the primary and replica. Add issues like: having to patch in HAProxy TCP keep-alive parameter support (it only allows enabling/disabling it, leaving params up to the OS, which you can't control on ECS Fargate, _and_ the AWS NLB having a 350-second TCP flow idle timeout - good luck with long-running queries); AWS NLBs having horrible timing issues when handling target group changes... it was not a great experience.
