A reference architecture from AWS providing CloudFormation YAML templates for deploying containerized microservices on Amazon ECS with an Application Load Balancer. It serves as a launchable stack template and example for infrastructure-as-code deployments.
Use cases
- deploy microservices on ecs with cloudformation
- reference architecture for containerized apps on aws
- launch ecs cluster with application load balancer via yaml templates
- learn cloudformation for ecs deployments
- bootstrap production ecs stack in my aws account
When to choose
- you want a battle-tested AWS sample for ECS + ALB infrastructure
- you prefer CloudFormation over other IaC tools
- you need a quick launchable stack template for microservices on ECS
When to avoid
- you use Kubernetes or another orchestrator instead of ECS
- you prefer Terraform, Pulumi, or CDK
- you need actively maintained templates with the latest ECS features
