In this short tutorial, learn what AWS Copilot is and how it helps you quickly deploy containerised applications on AWS.

AWS Copilot is a CLI tool (not a standalone AWS service) that provisions and manages infrastructure such as ECS Fargate, load balancers, Route 53, ACM certificates, databases, and CI/CD pipelines — all with minimal configuration.

This video focuses on exam awareness, real-world use cases, and when Copilot is a great choice versus when it can become limiting.
