Summary

The Terraform AWS provider now supports ECS Anywhere, a new capability in Amazon ECS that enables running and managing container-based applications on customers' on-premises servers. The feature simplifies on-premises container management by allowing users to run containerized workflows without requiring the installation or operation of container orchestrators. With consistent tooling and governance, users can employ the same tools and APIs for all container-based applications regardless of operating environment, making it easier to manage hybrid footprints. To get started with ECS Anywhere in the Terraform AWS provider, users need to add an additional property to a new or existing aws_ecs_task_definition. The feature is now available in the latest version of the Terraform AWS provider and can be configured using Terraform v0.12 or greater. Users can report bugs or request enhancements for this feature by opening an issue on the Terraform AWS Provider repository on GitHub.
