A simple shell script that initiates blue-green deployments on Amazon EC2 Container Service (ECS) by manipulating Task Definitions and Services via the AWS CLI. It is feature-complete and in maintenance mode, accepting only bugfixes and AWS CLI compatibility updates.

Use cases

• deploy a new docker image tag to an ecs service
• run blue-green deployments on aws ecs from ci
• update task definition image for a container service
• automate ecs deployments in a shell pipeline
• roll out new container versions with health checks and timeout
• clean up old task definition revisions after deploy

When to choose

• you deploy containerized services to AWS ECS and want a lightweight script instead of a full pipeline tool
• you need simple image-tag-based blue-green deployments driven from CI or the command line
• you want to control min/max healthy task percentages and deployment timeouts

When to avoid

• you use Kubernetes or another orchestrator instead of ECS
• you need advanced deployment strategies like canary or linear rollouts
• you want an actively developed tool with new features
