In terraform for aws_ecs_service how do we set Service Set Auto Scaling

Question

In Terrafrom when creating ecs services how do we define auto Scaling services. I do not see resoruce aws_ecs_service having the option.

Answer 1

ECS auto scaling is managed by Application Auto Scaling. Thus, to set it up for your ECS service you have to use:

• aws_appautoscaling_target - example for ECS in the docs.
• aws_appautoscaling_policy - example for ECS in docs as well.
