This comprehensive tutorial teaches how to deploy applications using Amazon Elastic Container Service (ECS) and Fargate. Amazon ECS is a fully managed container orchestration service that allows you to quickly run, scale, and manage containerized applications. Fargate is a serverless compute engine that enables you to run containers without managing the underlying infrastructure.
In this video, we'll cover the following topics:
Overview of Amazon ECS and Fargate
Setting up your Amazon ECS cluster
Creating and managing ECS task definitions
Deploying a fully functioning sample application to ECS using Fargate (application code provided)
You will also learn how to incorporate several AWS services required to build a complete architecture to support your ECS deployment - VPCs, IAM, Docker Builds, Amazon RDS, AWS Secrets Manager, AWS Systems Manager Session Manager and much more.
Access our application code and Dockerfile from our GitHub repository required to complete this mini project - https://bit.ly/4cokOKW
Whether new to container orchestration or looking to enhance your AWS skills, this tutorial will provide the knowledge and hands-on experience you need to deploy applications with Amazon ECS and Fargate. This step-by-step guide will give you the confidence to explain how to configure Amazon ECS Fargate at job interviews and discuss the numerous infrastructure resources you require to host the ECS environment and how to configure them. You will be able to explain how scaling works with ECS and how to ensure you secure backend resources with IAM roles and AWS Secrets Manager.
