AWS ECS is the fully managed container orchestration service: deploy, manage, and scale your Docker containers across AWS regions and on-premises using Fargate or EC2.

ECS (Elastic Container Service) is your control plane for running containerized applications at scale. This is a fully managed orchestration service, meaning you skip the cluster management overhead and focus on the application code. You have two main compute options: AWS Fargate (serverless, pay-as-you-go) for hands-off infrastructure, or EC2 for maximum control over the underlying instances. Define your application blueprint using a Task Definition (JSON format), then deploy it as a Service to maintain a desired count of running tasks, ensuring high availability and seamless integration with services like Application Load Balancer (ALB) and AWS Identity and Access Management (IAM). We use this to run everything from microservices to batch processing jobs, scaling reliably on demand.

## Recent Public Talks and Demos

### [MeetingBot Demo](https://toronto.aitinkerers.org/talks/rsvp_cGFOWKOl1BE)

In this live demo, I’ll showcase Meeting Bot, an open-source API and web dashboard that lets you automatically deploy and manage headless bots to join and record Zoom, Microsoft Teams, and Google Meet calls. You’ll see: - One-click deployment of our entire infrastructure (bots, backend, dashboard) using Terraform - Interactive dashboard (Next.js/React) for provisioning bots, setting display names, profile pictures, and webhook callbacks - How you can use this to create AI-enabled tools for your use case!
