Has Amazon spent a lot of effort on ECS? I am totally ignorant here, but the people who I consider more knowledgeable about AWS things have said in a nutshell that "in 2015 the things I heard about ECS were not good things, and I have basically not heard any new things since then." Basically stating that ECS was Amazon's attempt to plant a flag in the container-space and that it was half-hearted, not done with the ri…

hey yebyen- i was one of the very first beta users of ECS, and I now work for AWS. first off, sounds like maybe we're not doing the best job we can be with educating users on ECS- that's on us, and we'll focus on improving. to dig into your actual question: when ECS launched, the goal was to do a smaller number of things really well, and then listen to the community on what _they_ wanted to see from a container manag…

I do want to talk more, but I don't know how to DM on HackerNews... I am also yebyen @ gmail

I went looking for how to enable ECR and I didn't find it, is this a feature you can only use from within ECS?

On my legacy CoreOS cluster I always used Deis components to (theoretically) manage all of the cluster things. Kubernetes offloads many of these concerns to the Cloud provider, and handles others of them using Addons. Can I get ECR as my private registry on a Kubernetes cluster running on EC2 nodes?

hi yebyen- you don't need to enable ECR, it's just there by default as part of ECS. To play around/get started/create a repository you can go here:

https://console.aws.amazon.com/ecs/home?region=us-east-1#/re...

You'll need to already be logged into AWS for that link to work, and you can select a different region.

As for your second question, the answer is absolutely yes. k8s supports this natively: https://kubernetes.io/docs/user-guide/images/#using-aws-ec2-...

From an engineering POV, this line makes the most sense out of all: > when ECS launched, the goal was to do a smaller number of things really well, and then listen to the community on what _they_ wanted to see from a container management platform, and grow accordingly I'm coming from a small CoreOS cluster on bare metal, onto Kubernetes and Helm on EC2 nodes. I was a Fleet user before and I loved it! But always with…

awesome! keep me posted on how ECR works out for you. If you build something sweet, write about it and let me know! we love blog posts/write ups/all that jazz.

For reference on the kernel part, here how to check if your kernel has all the needed features for Docker:

You don't need a custom kernel to run Docker on Linode. Just change the storage driver to overlay (as you do in this stack script) and you're good to go. Otherwise this is a very nice script. I typically install the vim-nox package (instead of vim) but I'm not sure it makes a difference.

You could always run bash on Windows using Cygwin or MSYS before.

LXSS (Bash on Ubuntu on Windows) is an honest-to-goodness installation of Ubuntu running on top of Windows using the Linux subsystem. Cygwin/MSYS are more limited in comparison (or at least I have found them to be so).

Have you tried MSYS2?
