# Amazon ECS-Fargate Node Source
Available in PagerDuty Process Automation products
Amazon ECS is a fully managed container orchestration service that makes it easy for you to deploy, manage, and scale containerized applications.
AWS Fargate is a serverless compute engine that is compatible with both Amazon Elastic Container Service (ECS) and Amazon Elastic Kubernetes Service (EKS).
The Amazon ECS-Fargate Node Source retrieves the running containers in ECS and adds them to the Node Inventory in PagerDuty Process Automation and Runbook Automation:
# Configuration
You can add the ECS-Fargate Node Source by navigating to:
Project Settings -> Edit Nodes -> Sources
Click on Add a new Node Source + and then select AWS / ECS-Fargate / Resource Model:
To retrieve running ECS containers, fill in the following fields:
Access Key ID: The Access Key for your AWS account.
Secret Key Path: Click the Select button to navigate to your AWS Secret in Key Storage.
Region: Select the AWS region where your ECS Cluster resides.
ECS/Fargate Cluster Name: The name of the ECS Cluster. This can be found on the Clusters main page in the Console (as shown below) or with the AWS CLI:
aws ecs list-clusters
# Viewing ECS Containers
Once configured, the Node Source will retrieve all running tasks in the specified cluster and list them on the Nodes page:
By clicking on one of the ECS specific node-attributes, you can filter the nodes page to display just ECS containers - thereby removing all other Node types. For example, click on Cluster-ARN will result in the node-filter ECS:Cluster-ARN:.* (as shown in the screenshot above).
In order to filter on a specific subset of containers, click on the spyglass to the right of one of the node-attributes.
This will filter the nodes page to display strictly the ECS containers that match the selected attribute. For example, select the spyglass
to the right of Container-Image will filter the displayed containers to those with that specific container image:
