Amazon ECS now provides real-time deployment observability in the AWS Management Console
Amazon ECS offers real-time deployment monitoring in the console, enabling users to track progress, health, and diagnose failures directly
Amazon Elastic Container Service (Amazon ECS) now provides real-time deployment observability in the Amazon ECS Console. With this launch, customers can track deployment progress, monitor deployment health, and diagnose failures directly from the console, understanding exactly what is happening during a deployment, identifying issues as they occur, and reducing the time it takes to troubleshoot and resolve deployment failures. The enhanced deployment observability introduces a live deployment timeline showing each phase, service events, and task launch and termination progress with automatic refresh. Users can monitor deployment health in real time using circuit breaker status with live task failure proximity and threshold tracking, deployment alarm state, and health checks at both container and load-balancer levels. To diagnose deployment failures faster, users can view failed tasks directly in the deployment timeline with diagnostic context and deep links to related services such as AWS CloudTrail, reducing the need to navigate across multiple tools to pinpoint the root cause of a failure. These capabilities are available at no additional charge in all AWS commercial Regions and AWS GovCloud (US) Regions for all Amazon ECS services using the rolling update deployment type. To get started, navigate to any Amazon ECS service in the Amazon ECS Console and select the Deployments tab.
