    Exactly. The ECS agent (https://github.com/aws/amazon-ecs-agent/) inside of the EC2 make requests to the AWS. To it work, it is necessary internet access (though Internet Gateway or a NAT Gateway) or the VPC endpoints (https://docs.aws.amazon.com/vpc/latest/privatelink/concepts.html#concepts-service-providers).
  • Orchestrating hybrid workflows using Amazon Managed Workflows for Apache Airflow (MWAA)
    2 projects | dev.to | 7 Mar 2022
    The approach I am going to take is to create an Apache Airflow workflow (DAG) and leverage an Apache Airflow operator, ECSOperator, which allows us to launch container based images. The container based images we launch will contain our ETL code, and this will be parameterised so that we can re-use this multiple times, changing the behaviour by providing parameters during launch (for example, different SQL queries). Finally, we will use ECS Anywhere, which uses the open source amazon-ecs-agent to simplify how we can run our containers anywhere - in the Cloud, on premises or on other Clouds.
