HAQM Elastic Container Registry (HAQM ECR) provides a fully managed container registry service, offering high-performance hosting for reliably deploying application images anywhere. HAQM ECR service requires repositories to pre-exist before pushing container images. In this post, we explore a dynamic solution that leverages AWS CloudTrail, HAQM EventBridge, and AWS Lambda functions to automatically create HAQM […]

Introduction HAQM Elastic Container Service (HAQM ECS) is a fully managed container orchestration service that allows organizations to deploy, manage, and scale containerized workloads. It’s deeply integrated with the AWS ecosystem to provide a secure and easy-to-use solution for managing applications not only in the cloud but now also on your infrastructure with HAQM ECS […]

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 […]

Introduction Horizontal scalability is a critical aspect of cloud native applications. Microservices deployed to HAQM ECS leverage the Application Auto Scaling service to automatically scale based on observed metrics data. HAQM ECS measures service utilization based on CPU and memory resources consumed by the tasks that belong to a service and publishes CloudWatch metrics, namely, […]

Introduction In a Kubernetes cluster, the Horizontal Pod Autoscaler can automatically scale the number of Pods in a Deployment based on observed CPU utilization and memory usage. The autoscaler depends on the Kubernetes metrics server, which collects resource metrics from Kubelets and exposes them in Kubernetes API server through Metrics API. The metrics server has […]
