The HAQM Elastic Container Service (HAQM ECS) Command Line Interface (HAQM ECS CLI) now supports service discovery.

HAQM ECS service discovery makes it easy for your containerized services to discover and connect with each other. HAQM ECS creates and manages a registry of service names using the Route53 Auto Naming API so you can refer to a service by name in your code and write DNS queries to have the service name resolve to the service’s endpoint at runtime.

Service discovery is available for all networking modes for EC2 launch type or with AWS Fargate.

Please visit the AWS region table to see all AWS regions where HAQM ECS is available. You can also read the documentation to see where service discovery is available.
