About:
ecs-deploy is a command-line interface tool designed to streamline deployments on Amazon Elastic Container Service. It enables users to perform blue/green deployments, rollbacks, and scaling operations with zero downtime. The tool simplifies complex ECS interactions into single commands, improving deployment reliability and developer workflow.
Key Features:
  • Perform blue/green deployments with automatic health checks
  • Execute instant rollbacks to previous stable versions
  • Scale services up or down without downtime
  • Support for scheduled scaling actions
  • Integration with AWS CLI credentials and profiles
Use Cases:
  • Automating CI/CD pipelines for containerized applications on ECS
  • Performing safe, zero-downtime updates to production services
  • Quickly rolling back failed deployments to restore service stability
  • Managing capacity scaling for services based on time or demand
Alternatives:
  • AWS Copilot CLI – Copilot is a more comprehensive AWS-native tool for container lifecycle management, whereas ecs-deploy focuses specifically on deployment orchestration.
  • Terraform – Terraform manages infrastructure as code, while ecs-deploy handles the operational runtime deployment and scaling of existing services.
