I can't begin to tell you how helpful this video was and how excited I am to finally get a 200 OK status code from the health check of my ECS service! I was getting held up on the security group not allowing traffic from the load balancer.
This is the only resource in the whole internet that has been useful on this subject. Not only is this needed and useful, it's super clearly explained! Some people just deserve to have all the money they can eat for the rest of their lives for one good deed and this would be one of them. Why not? There's a lot of one hit wonders who have earned that.
Great tutorial! I spent hours trying to get traffic to a container running behind a load balancer. I was about to give up when I found the solution in your video. Thanks for sharing!
I lost 2 days on it, and just investing 22 minutes you answered all my questions. If you're new to this, remember also that your Fargate and task must be part of public subnets and not private one since public subnets can reach the internet.
16:17 "... the load balancer stuff I spent hours trying to figure out". I have no words to express my gratitude. I will gladly join Patreon after watching it. On our platform migration from EC2 instances to ECS Fargate, I had countless bizarre problems. Your video covered the most tricky I faced (and are poorly documented by AWS). Only this exact step cost me 16 hours. Soon I will dig into your channel searching for a pure AWS EKS Fargate setup.
Same waste of time for me with the NLB setup that come without SG (layer 3 of course) nor inbound IP pour to setup in the Target servers SG, that cause health-check fail !
Thank you kind sir. Saved me a lot of headache. Quick note: at 15:44 you are correct in saying use the SAME subnets for the service as the ALB. I had the wrong ones and was getting timeout issues when connecting to the DNS of the ALB. Thanks again!
Sir thank you so much for saving my life with tutorial I have spent now 4 days trying to figure out how to set this thing up and ended up with this video that solved my problem.
man i had a hard time finding out how to make ELB work with ECS , THANK YOU!! something to add to this video is that at moment 25:08 you could get the result back from fargate but since Docker container exposed port was 80801 not 80 to access it directly with IP or public DNS you had to include that port .
ECS: literally the WORST service I have had to use on AWS so far. I'm using this video to try to stand up a dev environment on ECS with Fargate. It's helpful, so thank you.
You're very welcome and sorry you had so many troubles. I echo the frustration. Once I got it working and figured out how to navigate it wasn't so bad. I just wish AWS had more hands on practical tutorials! Daniel
Amazing video! I spent like two weeks trying to configure an ECS cluster with no success until I found this video, thanks for such great content and explanation
Brooooo, thanks you for making this clear and remove all the confusion I was having.. one improvement, can you make a videos on how to create the the infra with the cdk with any language so that we can make all those clicks to the console easy?
This is one of the best tutorials on youtube. Thanks Sir! Though I still got some issues which was related to Health Check. Load balancer expects 200 status from the endpoint we specify in the Health Check path. My server did not have an endpoint with "/" so I was supposed to change that path to some other route so that the load balancer could be able to get 200 status in return.
I was following a Udemy course, but they had a recording of older console UI, which confused me. but I was able to follow you easily and was able to set up ALB, a couple of containers. Thanks
Life saver! This was the last step in getting my new application live and it was a lot more of a hassle than I expected. Maybe AWS should be paying you? ;)
Thank you very much for that great explaination even for the routing section. It's really helpful to configure target groups properly if you use Fargate the first time.
I was completely stuck on the health check failing for port 8080, not realizing I needed a second security group for ECS task. Thanks for saving me much frustration!

I've followed your steps and just for posterity When the load balancer comes online at around 13:36 , any requests answer with 503 - Service Temporarily Unavailable (which makes sense since there is nothing to answer your call on the other side) Great tutorial! If you happen to have time maybe you could repeat the tutorial with the current aws version, the UI looks much more different now
@@johnnywang9918 well at first it should be like that. The newer UI doesn't create outbound rules when creating security groups. For me it worked to give my load balancer security group the outbound rule to allow traffic to everywhere

Thank you so much for uploading this. I spent hours trying to figure out what's with the failing healthcheck, and you're totally right about the logs being useless lmao.
For me the reason this didn't work is my server didn't have a root 200 response, so I created a simple text response for it and it worked like a charm! Everything else in the video is great.
Thank you for this, I ran into the same issue where I also forgot to allow the security group for my services to receive connections on the container port. This video was extremely helpful
I love your commentary, especially names, why it is asking clustername when u click on cluster, u spend hours on IP type on target group , good work bro
I'm crying tears of joy! I hope you and your family experience ten thousands suns and moons of happiness and prosperity!

You won't even realize the amount of headache this has saved me. Liked and subbed. Thank you very much.

Glad I could help! It was such a pain figuring this out the first time :P
I’m watching your AWS playlist and learning from it. Thank you for sharing your knowledge with us!
Thank you for taking hours to figure out things. You saved a lot of our time.
You're very welcome Shivam!

this is the BEST video I've ever seen about AWS ECS with Fargate
Thank you kind sir. Saved me a lot of headache.

Thanks again!
Thank you. Was breaking my head for half a day with the instance Vs ip. You're my saviour
You're very welcome Vasan! I was scratching my head with that for a few hours as well :)

You're very welcome!
man i had a hard time finding out how to make ELB work with ECS , THANK YOU!!
something to add to this video is that at moment 25:08 you could get the result back from fargate but since Docker container exposed port was 80801 not 80 to access it directly with IP or public DNS you had to include that port .
You're very welcome javad!
Maaaan you saved my life, i cofigured wrong my balancer putting the same port as the target group, thanks!
You're very welcome!
I can't express my gratitude. I wouldn't do it without your help!

Best tutorial among all the videos on this topic!! Really helpful, thanks a lot for this video.👏

Great tutorial and explanation. It took me 2 days to figure out the connectivity from LB to Fargate.
Have been looking for this. Thanks a lot!
Thank you soooo muuuch for this video. I was strugling with the whole Load Balancer/Securit group stuff. Appreciated
Very useful and Really appreciated
Thank you so much! Got my ELB up and running in no time!
Great to hear Yael!
thank you for saving my life/job/career
Brooooo, thanks you for making this clear and remove all the confusion I was having..
one improvement, can you make a videos on how to create the the infra with the cdk with any language so that we can make all those clicks to the console easy?
I have to say that I spent 5 hours, almost gave up, for that "IP" radio check. Thank you!
AWESOME! 🎉 thank you man it was very clear
Thanks so much. This is great info. Tips like choosing a target type of IP instead of Instance for the load balancer are invaluable.
what about registering targets in target group which you skipped to fill those later?
This is one of the best tutorials on youtube. Thanks Sir!
Though I still got some issues which was related to Health Check. Load balancer expects 200 status from the endpoint we specify in the Health Check path. My server did not have an endpoint with "/" so I was supposed to change that path to some other route so that the load balancer could be able to get 200 status in return.
Thank you. It was a simple and working example!

Great! video, was very helpful to how setup the load balancer with ECS and the load balancer
Thanks alot for this great video. Explanations regarding the constraints faced really helps to stay on track while setting up the configuration
Thank you so much Daniel for your effort!!!
Life saver! This was the last step in getting my new application live and it was a lot more of a hassle than I expected. Maybe AWS should be paying you? ;)
Thank you very much for that great explaination even for the routing section. It's really helpful to configure target groups properly if you use Fargate the first time.
You're very welcome Chris! Glad you found it helpful - the routing details stumped me for hours.
This is a fantasic video, clearly explained. Also highlighting the key issues. Thankyou
I was completely stuck on the health check failing for port 8080, not realizing I needed a second security group for ECS task. Thanks for saving me much frustration!
I had the same frustrations! Glad I could help you figure it out :)
Thanks a lot. Simple clean explanation with the live example. This saved me lots of time.
You're very welcome DAvid!
If only I could give more than one thumbs up.
Omg, this f button at 16:50... now it works, thx!!!

You saved me regarding the Target Group not showing up!!! Aws need to do something about this shit, some warning or something else
Glad I could help Felipe!
Really good explanation, thanks !!
Glad it was helpful Andy!
Really appreciate you taking time and creating this video, was stuck on target group error your video helped a lot!!
Glad it helped Yogesh!
This was awesome! Helped me out a bunch!
I've followed your steps and just for posterity
When the load balancer comes online at around 13:36 , any requests answer with 503 - Service Temporarily Unavailable (which makes sense since there is nothing to answer your call on the other side)
Great tutorial! If you happen to have time maybe you could repeat the tutorial with the current aws version, the UI looks much more different now
Do you have an answer for this problem? I also get 503 and don't know what to do. I followed the tutorial and I am stuck with this error.
@@johnnywang9918 well at first it should be like that. The newer UI doesn't create outbound rules when creating security groups. For me it worked to give my load balancer security group the outbound rule to allow traffic to everywhere
Hey thanks! AWS ecosystem is a huge one and ECS is in my opinion still easier than Elastic Beanstalk when deploying Docker containers.
I guess Elastic Beanstalk must require a genius then
Awesome Tutorial.. Thank you!!
You're very welcome Mrinal!
Awesome tutorial!!
Thank you! Cheers!
Fantastic, simple to follow walkthrough - thanks for this!

Thank you so much. For Fargate it's IP, Not Instance.. Big help. Wonderful session.
You're very welcome and thanks for the clarification!
You saved my life. No joking
