Amazon ECS Service

View Source Release Notes

Overview

This service contains Terraform code to deploy a production-grade ECS service on AWS using Elastic Container Service(ECS).

ECS architectureECS architecture

Features

  • Deploy an ECS Service onto an existing ECS cluster
  • Define arbitrary tasks via JSON
  • Optionally deploy a canary task for testing release candidates
  • Configure and deploy load balancing and optional DNS records
  • Auto scaling of ECS tasks
  • Cloudwatch metrics and alerts

Learn

note

This repo is a part of the Gruntwork Service Catalog, a collection of reusable, battle-tested, production ready infrastructure code. If you’ve never used the Service Catalog before, make sure to read How to use the Gruntwork Service Catalog!

Under the hood, this is all implemented using Terraform modules from the Gruntwork terraform-aws-ecs repo. If you are a subscriber and don’t have access to this repo, email support@gruntwork.io.

Core concepts

To understand core concepts like what is ECS, the different cluster types, how to authenticate to Kubernetes, and more, see the documentation in the terraform-aws-ecs repo.

Repo organization

  • modules: the main implementation code for this repo, broken down into multiple standalone, orthogonal submodules.
  • examples: This folder contains working examples of how to use the submodules.
  • test: Automated tests for the modules and examples.

Reference

Required

List of container definitions to use for the ECS task. Each entry corresponds to a different ECS container definition.

Any types represent complex values of variable type. For details, please consult `variables.tf` in the source repo.
Example
   container_definitions = [{
name = "nginx"
image = "nginx:1.21"
}]

Details

Ideally we can use a concrete type here, but container definitions have many optional fields which Terraform does
not yet have good support for.

ecs_cluster_arnstringrequired

The ARN of the cluster to which the ecs service should be deployed.

ecs_cluster_namestringrequired

The name of the ecs cluster to deploy the ecs service onto.
