Create a CI/CD pipeline for Amazon ECS with GitHub Actions and AWS CodeBuild Tests
Amazon Elastic Container Service (Amazon 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 Amazon Route 53, AWS Identity and Access Management (IAM), and Amazon CloudWatch. Establishing an effective and efficient CI/CD pipeline is critical for containerized […]
AWS CodeDeploy now supports linear and canary deployments for Amazon ECS
AWS CodeDeploy has extended blue/green deployment support for Elastic Container Service (Amazon ECS) to include canary and linear deployments for applications hosted on AWS Fargate or Amazon Compute Cloud (Amazon 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 […]
Scanning images with Trivy in an AWS CodePipeline
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 […]
Containers and infrastructure as code, like peanut butter and jelly
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 Amazon ECS services and Amazon 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 […]
