Amazon ECS deployment failure detection - Amazon Elastic Container Service
Services or capabilities described in Amazon Web Services documentation might vary by Region. To see the differences applicable to the China Regions, see Getting Started with Amazon Web Services in China (PDF).

Amazon ECS deployment failure detection

Amazon ECS provides two methods for detecting deployment failures:

  • Deployment Circuit Breaker

  • CloudWatch Alarms

Both methods can be configured to automatically roll back failed deployments to the last known good state.

Consider the following:

  • Both methods only support rolling update deployment and blue/green deployment types.

  • When both methods are used, either can trigger deployment failure.

  • The rollback method requires a previous deployment in COMPLETED state.

  • EventBridge events are generated for deployment state changes.
