Getting Started with Amazon ECS and Octopus Deploy

We've got something special cooked up for our next session! Working in collaboration with the AWS User Group, we've teamed up to present our next talk in person (and online) with a special guest joining us from the UK, Pete Gallagher.

THE TALK
Running applications and services in containers provides consistency and scalability.

Amazon Elastic Container Service (ECS) is a highly scalable and configurable container management service that makes it easy for you to deploy and manage containers.

In this talk, Pete will show you how to create an Amazon ECS instance with Octopus Runbooks. We’ll then configure Octopus to deploy your container to production.

Join Pete Gallagher to learn:

• How ECS allows your organization to deploy workloads for scalability and resilience
• How to create and configure an Amazon ECS instance
• How to configure Octopus Deploy as part of your CI/CD pipeline to deploy an application to Amazon ECS
