Amzon announced ECS Command Line Interface for Private Registry Authentication

Amazon Elastic Container Service (Amazon ECS) is a highly scalable, high-performance container which are an growingly dominant techniques for developers to package and deploy their applications service. Amazon Elastic Container Service (Amazon ECS) removes the entail for you to install and run your own container orchestration software, manage and scale a cluster of virtual machines, or schedule containers on those virtual machines.

Amazon ECS is enormously merged with AWS services including Amazon CloudWatch, Elastic Load Balancing, AWS CloudFormation, AWS CloudTrail, AWS CodeStar, Amazon VPC, AWS Identity and Access Management, Amazon ECR, AWS Batch, which offers you a comprehensive result for building and running a extensive span of containerized applications.

Formerly, in sequence to utillize the Elastic Container Service Command Line Interface to complete function that used images from a private registry, you had to first create AWS Secrets for your registry credentials. Presently, you can now operate the Amazon Elastic Container Service (ECS) Command Line Interface (Amazon ECS-CLI) to design AWS secrets for your private registry credentials. Currently, you can give the Elastic Container Service -CLI with an input file that covers the registry names and related credentials, and the ECS-CLI will generate the AWS Secrets also an Identity and Access Management part for you which can be used through ECS to access the secrets.

To learn more about how ECS-CLI supports creating AWS secrets for private registry credentials, read our documentation.
