Amazon Elastic Container Service (ECS) is the fully managed container orchestration platform for deploying, managing, and scaling Docker applications on AWS and on-premises via ECS Anywhere.

ECS is your fully managed solution for container orchestration, eliminating the operational overhead of managing a control plane or cluster nodes. You define your application blueprint using a Task Definition (JSON), and ECS handles the deployment and scaling. Choose your compute layer: use AWS Fargate for a serverless experience (no EC2 management required), or select the EC2 launch type for granular control over instance selection (e.g., specific GPU or network-optimized types). ECS integrates natively with AWS services like Elastic Load Balancing (ALB/NLB), Amazon ECR for image storage, and Amazon CloudWatch for monitoring, ensuring high availability and robust security through IAM roles for tasks.

## Recent Public Talks and Demos

### [Remote Nexus](https://minneapolis-saint-paul.aitinkerers.org/talks/rsvp_T2_o_MNCntg)

A demo of a remote nexus I have begun building at my company. The demo will show how to run the Claude Code CLI on a remote server and connect it to a rendered xterm terminal emulator. Further, it will show you how to mount a shared context repository to the server and give each user access to a subdirectory on the server for Claude Code to use without damaging the subdirectories of others. The project uses AWS EFS for a shared read-only Nexus repository and isolated per-user workspaces.
