In today's session, we're delving into a three-tier implementation of the Amazon Elastic Container Service (ECS). We start by discussing the historical context of servers, highlighting the initial challenges of server management. From single servers to virtual servers, we pinpoint the inefficiencies that arose and how they paved the way for containerized solutions.

Containers are the go-to solution in the current tech landscape, and we touch upon Google's Borg system, which later evolves into Kubernetes. However, for smaller companies, Kubernetes can be overwhelming. Enter AWS's ECS, offering a more straightforward, managed approach with two operational modes: EC2 instances and Fargate.

To establish our three-tier infrastructure with ECS, we begin with a Virtual Private Cloud (VPC) and spread the system across three subnets in different availability zones for added fault tolerance. We then discuss the ECS cluster's components, including service and task definitions.

Our setup uses Terraform and Terragrunt, popular tools for infrastructure as code. We highlight Terraform's vendor-neutral appeal, contrasting it with vendor-specific solutions like AWS Cloud Formation. Additionally, Terragrunt amplifies Terraform, allowing template reuse and enhanced organizational capabilities.

This tutorial serves as a comprehensive guide, walking us through each component, from VPC setup, ECS services, to load balancing. We emphasize best practices, ensuring efficient deployments and optimal resource management.
