At AWS, we’ve seen customers rapidly adopt Kubernetes to deploy applications globally, train machine learning models at scale, and standardize how they deliver innovation across data centers and the cloud. Using Kubernetes, customers are building automated tooling to replace manual processes, implementing operational pipelines for every piece of their infrastructure, and empowering development teams with […]

HAQM Elastic Container Service (HAQM ECS) is a fully managed container orchestration service that makes it easy to operate containerized workloads at scale.  It also integrates with other core AWS services, such as HAQM Route 53, AWS Identity and Access Management (IAM), and HAQM CloudWatch.  Establishing an effective and efficient CI/CD pipeline is critical for containerized […]

AWS CodeDeploy has extended blue/green deployment support for Elastic Container Service (HAQM ECS) to include canary and linear deployments for applications hosted on AWS Fargate or HAQM Compute Cloud (HAQM EC2). Blue/green deployments are a safe deployment strategy provided by AWS CodeDeploy for minimizing interruptions caused by changing application versions. This is accomplished by creating […]

This post was contributed by AWS Container Hero, Liz Rice, VP Open Source Engineering at Aqua Security. If you’re working with containers, it’s important to scan your images for known vulnerabilities, so that you don’t deploy code that an attacker can easily exploit. A good way of ensuring that all your deployed images get this […]

Infrastructure as code tools like AWS CloudFormation and HashiCorp Terraform enable teams to describe and automate provisioning of cloud infrastructure resources, including container-related resources like HAQM ECS services and HAQM EKS clusters. In this post, I cover why I believe infrastructure as code is especially important for containerized applications, how we use infrastructure as code with […]
