ECS Fargate — Production Patterns¶
AWSFargateECSProduction 5 min read
Fargate autoscaling, EFS volumes, blue-green deploy and pricing.
Service Autoscaling¶
resource "aws_appautoscaling_policy" "cpu" {
name = "cpu-scaling"
policy_type = "TargetTrackingScaling"
target_tracking_scaling_policy_configuration {
target_value = 70.0
predefined_metric_specification {
predefined_metric_type = "ECSServiceAverageCPUUtilization"
}
}
}
EFS pro shared storage¶
EFS volume in task definition for shared state between containers. Transit encryption + IAM auth.
Blue-Green with CodeDeploy¶
- Canary (10 % → 100 %), Linear, All-at-once
- Auto rollback on alarm trigger
- Pre/post-traffic Lambda hooks
Summary¶
Fargate for production = autoscaling + EFS + CodeDeploy. Higher cost, but zero node management.
