Amazon ECS Gateway: Beanstalk for ingress for your ECS services
If you've ever published a service on ECS, you know the list: an Application Load Balancer, a listener, a target group, a certificate on ACM, security groups, maybe a web ACL from WAF, and getting everything connected. Now multiply that by each new service, and add to that keeping it synchronized when something changes. On October 20, 2026 AWS announced Amazon ECS Gateway, and the idea is simple: …
AWS has announced Amazon ECS Gateway, a new service that simplifies the process of setting up and managing ingress networking for ECS services. The service allows platform teams to define ingress configuration once, and then enables application teams to easily opt-in and expose their services without having to provision and manage load balancers, certificates, and security groups.
ECS Gateway is similar to Elastic Beanstalk, but specifically for ECS ingress. The service creates and manages the necessary infrastructure, including Application Load Balancers, listeners, target groups, and security groups, and allows for easy association with ECS clusters and services.
