Amazon ECS Clouddriver

The clouddriver-ecs module allows for Amazon ECS deployments of dockerized applications. You need to enable the AWS cloud provider in order for the ECS cloud provider to work.

Clouddriver configuration

In order for the Amazon ECS cloud provider to work, a corresponding AWS account must be configured and enabled. An ECS account will be tied to a given AWS account by its name. Below is an example snippet of clouddriver.yml:

aws:
  enabled: true

  accounts:
    - name: aws-account-name
      accountId: "123456789012"
      regions:
        - name: us-east-1
  defaultAssumeRole: role/SpinnakerManaged

ecs:
  enabled: true
  accounts:
    - name: ecs-account-name
      awsAccount: aws-account-name

Spinnaker role

In Spinnaker 1.19 and later, the Amazon ECS cloud provider requires service-linked roles for Amazon ECS and Application Auto Scaling. To create the required service-linked roles, run the following aws-cli commands:

aws iam create-service-linked-role --aws-service-name ecs.amazonaws.com
aws iam create-service-linked-role --aws-service-name ecs.application-autoscaling.amazonaws.com

See the official Spinnaker Amazon ECS provider setup docs for more information.
