Get up and running with containers and Amazon ECS
summary
Demonstrates taking a local Flask Docker image through build, test, and automated deployment to Amazon ECS using the AWS Copilot CLI, which creates an ECS cluster, an Amazon ECR repo, and an AWS CodePipeline/ CodeBuild pipeline for CI/CD. The demo sets an environment variable, launches a Fargate-backed service behind a load balancer, shows one running task and live logs, and deploys the change in minutes to a production-ready URL.
