This terraform module is an AWS ECS Application Module that creates a Networking LoadBalance Application setup on ECS.

This module is designed to be used with DNXLabs/terraform-aws-ecs (https://github.com/DNXLabs/terraform-aws-ecs).

The following resources will be created:

  • Cloudwatch Metrics alarm - Provides a CloudWatch Metric Alarm resource.

  • IAM roles - The cloudwatch event needs an IAM Role to run the ECS task definition. A role is created and a policy will be granted via IAM policy.

  • IAM policy - Policy to be attached to the IAM Role. This policy will have a trust with the cloudwatch event service. And it will use the managed policy AmazonEC2ContainerServiceEventsRole created by AWS.

  • Security Groups for the ECS nodes

  • Simple Notification Service (SNS) topics - Alarm topics to create and alert on ECS service metrics. Leaving empty disables all alarms.

  • Auto Scaling

    • You can specify the max number of containers to scale with autoscaling. The default is 4
    • You can specify the nin number of containers to scale with autoscaling. The default is 1
    • Cooldown in seconds to wait between scale in events. The default is 300
    • Cooldown in seconds to wait between scale out events. The default is 300
  • Cloudwatch Log Groups

  • Network Load Balancer (NLB)

  • ECS task definition - A task definition is required to run Docker containers in Amazon ECS. Some of the parameters you can specify in a task definition include:

    • Image - Docker image to deploy
      • Default value = "dnxsolutions/nginx-hello:latest"
    • CPU - Hard limit of the CPU for the container
      • Default Value = 0
    • Memory - Hard memory of the container
      • Default Value = 512
    • Name - Name of the ECS Service
    • Set log configuration
  • ECS Task-scheduler activated by cloudwatch events

In addition you have the option to create or not :

  • Autoscaling
    • Enables or not autoscaling based on average CPU tracking
    • Target average CPU percentage to track for autoscaling
  • A Hostname to create DNS record for this app
