AWS Container Platform

This AWS container platform diagram shows both the deployment path and the runtime request path. CodePipeline publishes an image to Amazon ECR, which supplies an ECS service. Application users enter through an Application Load Balancer, and the running service connects to RDS, ElastiCache and CloudWatch Logs. This level of detail is useful for a platform overview when you need to distinguish container delivery from live traffic without showing task definitions or network topology.

CASE ANALYSIS

Scenario

Explaining deployment and request paths for a containerized AWS service.

Key decisions

  • Build delivery: Publish container images from CodePipeline to ECR.
  • Runtime: Deploy the image to an ECS service.
  • Traffic: Send users through an Application Load Balancer.
  • Dependencies: Show database, cache and logs beside the runtime.

When to reuse this

Use it for an ECS service overview before adding cluster, subnet or task details.
