Container-native without k8s: PHP in ECS on AWS - Ian Littman - PHP UK 2022

Deploy PHP containers on AWS without Kubernetes. This talk covers container-native ECS, ECR, load balancing, security groups, and more for scalable, high-availability application deployment.

Key takeaways

Use Elastic Container Registry (ECR) to store and manage container images.
ECS (Elastic Container Service) is a container orchestration service that allows for scalable, high availability, and secure deployment of containers.
ECS has a Control Plane and a Data Plane, with the Control Plane being free and the Data Plane being charged based on the instance type.
To deploy a container, create a task definition, which defines the container, its dependencies, and how to allocate resources.
Use a load balancer to route traffic to the container, and use a target group to specify the container to route to.
Use security groups to define the network access controls and firewall rules for the container.
Environment variables can be injected into a container and can be used to configure the container.
Use IAM roles to manage access and permissions for the container.
Use AWS Secrets Manager to manage sensitive data and secrets.
Use AWS Certificate Manager to manage SSL/TLS certificates.
Use CloudWatch to monitor and log container activity.
Use Fargate to run containers without managing servers or clusters.
Use ECS to run tasks and scale them based on demand.
Use IAM roles to grant permissions to AWS services.
Use AWS IAM to manage access and permissions across AWS services.
Use Terraform or CloudFormation to manage AWS infrastructure and deployment.
Use AWS CLI to manage container deployment and scaling.
Use ECR to manage and store container images.
Use CodeBuild and CodeCommit to manage and store code and build artifacts.
Use AWS Lambda to run serverless code and use ECS to run containerized code.
Use Fargate to run containerized code and use ECS to manage container orchestrations.
Use IAM roles to grant permissions to AWS services and use AWS IAM to manage access and permissions across AWS services.
