Introduction HAQM Elastic Container Service (ECS) customers who use Cluster auto scaling (CAS) have expressed that they would like to scale-in more quickly so that they can avoid paying extra charges for compute resources during scale-in events. To make scaling-in more responsive, today we are pleased to introduce an enhancement to increase the scale-in step […]

Introduction HAQM ECS eliminates the need to install, operate, and scale your own cluster management infrastructure. Customers are using horizontal scalability to deploy and scale their microservices applications running on HAQM ECS. They use the Application Auto Scaling service to automatically scale based on metrics data. HAQM ECS typically measures service utilization based on average […]

Today, we are launching the HAQM ECS Exec functionality for HAQM Elastic Container Service (HAQM ECS) customers running Windows containers on HAQM Elastic Compute Cloud (HAQM EC2), AWS Fargate or HAQM ECS Anywhere. This feature enables you to run commands in or get a shell to a container. In this blog post, we will walk […]

Introduction HAQM CloudWatch Container Insights helps customers collect, aggregate, and summarize metrics and logs from containerized applications and microservices. Metrics data is collected as performance log events using the embedded metric format. These performance log events use a structured JSON schema that enables high-cardinality data to be ingested and stored at scale. From this data, […]
