Terraform module to run ECS cluster, with ASG + Launch Template + Scaling policies via capacity provider. See details in the corresponding AWS blog post Amazon ECS Cluster Auto Scaling is Now Generally Available.
- ECS cluster manages ASG capacity automatically.
- ASG with optional spot instances support.
- It's possible to specify various instance types for your cluster.
- EC2 instance profile with SSM policy - you can connect to the instances using the Session Manager.
- Default ECS task role allows creating a log group.
- Default security group for ECS nodes allow inbound connections from configurable list of network CIDRs.
- It's possible to specify additional security groups for ECS nodes.
- Latest ECS Optimized AMI with
amd64orarm64architectures. - Additional EBS disks.
- ASG lifecycle hooks.

}The following input variables are required:
Description: Cluster name.
Type: any
Description: IDs of subnets. Use subnets from various availability zones to make the cluster more reliable.
Type: list(string)
The following input variables are optional (have default values):
Description: ECS node architecture.
Type: bool
Default: false
Description: The maximum size the auto scaling group (measured in EC2 instances).
Type: number
Default: 100
Description: The minimum size the auto scaling group (measured in EC2 instances).
Type: number
Default: 0
Description: A list of additional EBS disks.
Type: map(string)
Default: {}
Description: ECS node instance types. Maps of pairs like type = weight. Where weight gives the instance type a proportional weight to other instance types.
Type: map(any)
Default:
{
"t3a.small": 2
}Description: A list of maps containing the name,lifecycle_transition,default_result,heartbeat_timeout,role_arn,notification_target_arn keys.
Type:
list(object({
name = string

default_result = string
heartbeat_timeout = number
role_arn = string
notification_target_arn = string
notification_metadata = string
}))Default: []
Description: The minimum number of on-demand EC2 instances.
Type: number
Default: 0
Description: The autoscaling group will not select instances with this setting for termination during scale in events.
Type: bool
Default: true
Description: Additional security group IDs. Default security group would be merged with the provided list.
Type: list
Default: []
Description: Choose should we use spot instances or on-demand to populate ECS cluster.
Type: bool
Default: false
Description: The target utilization for the cluster. A number between 1 and 100.
Type: string
Default: "100"
Description: List of trusted subnets CIDRs with hosts that should connect to the cluster. E.g., subnets with ALB and bastion hosts.
Type: list(string)
Default:
[
""
]Description: A shell script will be executed at once at EC2 instance start.
Type: string
Default: ""
