Today, AWS announces Amazon Elastic Container Service (Amazon ECS) Express Mode, a new feature that empowers developers to rapidly launch containerized applications, including web applications and APIs. ECS Express Mode makes it easy to orchestrate and manage the cloud architecture for your application, while maintaining full control over your infrastructure resources.
Amazon ECS Express Mode streamlines the deployment and management of containerized applications on AWS, allowing developers to focus on delivering business value through their containerized applications. Every Express Mode service automatically receives an AWS-provided domain name, making your application immediately accessible without additional configuration. Applications using ECS Express Mode incorporate AWS operational best practices, serve either public or private HTTPS requests, and scale in response to traffic patterns. Traffic is distributed through Application Load Balancer (ALB)s, and automatically consolidates up to 25 Express Mode services behind a single ALB when appropriate. ECS Express uses intelligent rule-based routing to maintain isolation between services while efficiently utilizing the ALB resource. All resources provisioned by ECS Express Mode remain fully accessible in your account, ensuring you never sacrifice control or flexibility. As your application requirements evolve, you can directly access and modify any infrastructure resource, leveraging the complete feature set of Amazon ECS and related services without disruption to your running applications.
To get started just provide your container image, and ECS Express Mode handles the rest by deploying your application in Amazon ECS and auto-generating a URL. Amazon ECS Express Mode is available now in all AWS Regions at no additional charge. You pay only for the AWS resources created to run your application. To deploy a new ECS Express Mode service, use the Amazon ECS Console, SDK, CLI, CloudFormation, CDK and Terraform. For more information, see the AWS News blog, or the documentation.
