Deploying a Flask Application to AWS Fargate with Amazon Q CLI

This is series of event - Amazon Q Developer

Join us for a behind-the-scenes walkthrough of deploying a containerized Flask application to AWS Fargate using nothing but prompts—with Amazon Q CLI as your AI DevOps assistant.
In this hands-on session, we’ll deep dive into a real-world “no-touch coding” deployment, where every template, fix, and optimization was driven by conversational prompts, not manual code.
🔧 What you'll learn:

• How to containerize and deploy a Flask app to AWS Fargate using Amazon Q
• Handling real-world issues like IAM policy errors, Docker execution bugs, and architecture mismatches
• Creating conditional SAM templates for reusable infrastructure
• Scaling Fargate services with CPU-based auto-scaling
• The power (and limitations) of “no-touch coding” with GenAI

🚀 Key Highlights:

• Full walkthrough of AWS SAM template generation via Amazon Q
• Dockerfile optimizations for ARM vs. x86 environments
• Deployment strategies using ECR, ECS, and Load Balancers
• Error resolution using iterative prompts to Amazon Q—no manual coding!

👨‍💻 Who Should Attend:

• DevOps engineers and cloud developers working with AWS
• Developers curious about AI-assisted infrastructure deployment
• Anyone exploring Amazon Q CLI for real-world use cases

📦 Bonus: Access to the full GitHub repo, blog walkthrough, and ready-to-use deployment templates.
