Deep Dive into Amazon ECS
summary
The talk explains how to deploy and operate applications on Amazon ECS using specific tools and workflows: pushing container images to Amazon ECR, converting docker-compose files into ECS tasks/services with the ECS CLI, and creating clusters via CloudFormation or the AWS console. It covers configuring an Application Load Balancer with health checks and target groups, writing task definitions with resource limits and task-versioned deployments, setting up CloudWatch alerts and autoscaling, and adding a CI step that tags and pushes builds; the presenter claims service-managed rolling updates give zero-downtime and mentions ECR’s performance and low cost while noting some live-demo steps failed.
