How to Deploy a Docker App to AWS using Elastic Container Service (ECS)

Video Description

In this step by step tutorial, I show you how to deploy a Flask based Docker app to AWS. We start by building a local docker image and uploading it to Elastic Container Registry. We create an ECS Cluster, and configure a task to run our docker image. Finally, we launch a Task into the cluster and expose the app to the internet via VPC.
