    I'm mostly using just EC2 instances running Docker Engine and Docker Compose (with configs and Compose projects in Git), but I'm starting to use CloudFormation and ECS more. I've taken a lot of inspiration from https://github.com/aws-samples/aws-refarch-shibboleth, https://github.com/awslabs/ecs-refarch-continuous-deployment, and https://github.com/aws-samples/ecs-refarch-cloudformation. At some point in the future, I plan to refactor my CloudFormation/ECS deployments into something more cloud agnostic using Terraform/Kubernetes.

  • My Infrastructure as Code Rosetta Stone - Deploying the same web application on AWS ECS Fargate with CDK, Terraform and Pulumi
    8 projects | dev.to | 7 Jan 2023
    I first started out with IaC following this project aws-samples/ecs-refarch-cloudformation (which is pretty old at this point) and wrote a lot of CloudFormation by hand. The pain of doing that lead me to explore the CDK with Python. I learned TypeScript by rewriting the Python CDK code I wrote in TypeScript. I later worked with a team that was more experienced in Terraform and learned how to use that. I feel like Pulumi takes the best of the two tools and has a really great developer experience. There is a little bit of a learning curve with Pulumi, and you give up some of the simplicity of Terraform.
  • Daisy-chaining CloudFormation templates together

    Yes, deploy them as nested stacks inside a parent template. You can reference outputs via !GetAtt NestedStackX.Outputs.OutputName. see this repo for an example https://github.com/aws-samples/ecs-refarch-cloudformation
  • My approach to building ad hoc developer environments using AWS ECS, Terraform and GitHub Actions (article link and diagram description in comments)
    2 projects | /r/aws | 12 Jun 2022
    Sure. My IaC journey actually started out with CloudFormation, and I learned a lot from this reference project: aws-samples/ecs-refarch-cloudformation. Then I picked up CDK when that became available and migrated a project from CloudFormation to CDK. It sounded like a nicer way to handle stacks in a familiar language with lots great one-liners and utility functions and constructs, and it definitely is. I have a similar project written in CDK that is an application/framework-first (Django) approach to learning and doing IaC that you can find here: https://github.com/briancaffey/django-cdk. This implements both ECS and EKS, but my attempts at learning EKS sort of fizzled out for now as I don't have the need to use it, and for the task at hand (running a monolithic Django application on AWS) I think ECS makes a LOT more sense.

  • Best way to deploy docker compose to AWS ECS?
    1 project | /r/docker | 4 Mar 2021
    If you need more options that is provided the Docker/ECS tool listed above you can roll your own using CloudFormation (the AWS deployment scripting tool). There's a good starter here.
