When the Fargate Tasks generate logs to CloudWatch, the traffic will currently pass through the NAT Gateway. This generates extra costs.
VPC Endpoint Gateways are free. They allow all subnets in a VPC to communicate directly with the targetted service (e.g. logs, S3, ...) at no extra costs and with higher performances.
