Running Containers on AWS

This repository contains some practical examples how to run containers on AWS. It covers Docker Swarm (mode), Docker for AWS and ECS.

Basic setup

In order to run the different kind of clusters we need a basic setup (like VPC). There are some very good templates available from Cloudonaut which I want to reuse.

# Create VPC in 3 availability zones
aws cloudformation create-stack \
  --stack-name vpc \
  --template-body https://s3-eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/widdix-aws-cf-templates/vpc/vpc-3azs.yaml

# Create bastion host for ssh access
aws cloudformation update-stack \
  --stack-name vpc-ssh-bastion \
  --template-body https://s3-eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/widdix-aws-cf-templates/vpc/vpc-ssh-bastion.yaml \
  --capabilities CAPABILITY_IAM \
  --parameters ParameterKey=ParentVPCStack,ParameterValue=vpc ParameterKey=KeyName,ParameterValue=pgarbe

# Create NAT gateway
aws cloudformation create-stack \
  --stack-name vpc-nat-instance \
  --template-body https://s3-eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/widdix-aws-cf-templates/vpc/vpc-nat-instance.yaml \
  --capabilities CAPABILITY_IAM \
  --parameters ParameterKey=ParentVPCStack,ParameterValue=vpc \
               ParameterKey=ParentSSHBastionStack,ParameterValue=vpc-ssh-bastion \
               ParameterKey=KeyName,ParameterValue=pgarbe

Single Docker (Ubuntu)

aws cloudformation create-stack  \
  --template-body file://./ubuntu/stack.yaml \
  --stack-name docker \
  --capabilities CAPABILITY_IAM \
  --parameters ParameterKey=ParentVPCStack,ParameterValue=vpc \
               ParameterKey=ParentSSHBastionStack,ParameterValue=vpc-ssh-bastion \
               ParameterKey=KeyName,ParameterValue=pgarbe \
               ParameterKey=DockerVersion,ParameterValue=1.13.0~rc6 \
               ParameterKey=DockerPreRelease,ParameterValue=true \
               ParameterKey=DesiredInstances,ParameterValue=1

Deploy a service

docker run -d -p 80:80 --name nginx nginx

Docker Swarm (mode)

To create a Docker swarm (mode) you need to setup managers and workers. A swarm cluster can be initialized by docker swarm init and further nodes can be joined by docker swarm join. In order to join nodes we've to provide a so-called join-token. This can be requested on the first node by docker swarm join-token worker|manager.

./deploy.sh ParameterKey=KeyName,ParameterValue=pgarbe \
            ParameterKey=Version,ParameterValue=$(date +%s) 

# ssh into node via bastion host
ssh -A ec2-user@<Public IP of bastion host>

# ssh into node 
ssh ubuntu@<Private IP of manager node>

# Get the swarm join tokens and copy them
docker swarm join-token manager --quiet
docker swarm join-token worker --quiet

# Encrypt tokens with KMS
swarm_manager_join_token=$(aws kms encrypt --key-id <KmsKey> --plaintext <SwarmManagerJoinToken> --output text --query CiphertextBlob)
swarm_worker_join_token=$(aws kms encrypt --key-id <KmsKey> --plaintext <SwarmWorkerJoinToken> --output text --query CiphertextBlob)

./deploy.sh ParameterKey=KeyName,ParameterValue=pgarbe \
            ParameterKey=Version,ParameterValue=$(date +%s)  \
            ParameterKey=SwarmManagerJoinToken,ParameterValue=$swarm_manager_join_token \
            ParameterKey=SwarmWorkerJoinToken,ParameterValue=$swarm_worker_join_token

Deploy a service

docker stack deploy --compose-file docker-stack.yaml voting-app

Docker for AWS

Docker for AWS provides an easy-to-deploy Docker environment on AWS. The installation is very easy and takes only a couple of minutes.

aws cloudformation create-stack  \
  --template-url https://editions-us-east-1.s3.amazonaws.com/aws/stable/Docker.tmpl \
  --stack-name docker4aws113 \
  --capabilities CAPABILITY_IAM \
  --parameters ParameterKey=ClusterSize,ParameterValue=5 \
               ParameterKey=EnableCloudWatchLogs,ParameterValue=yes \
               ParameterKey=EnableSystemPrune,ParameterValue=no \
               ParameterKey=InstanceType,ParameterValue=t2.micro \
               ParameterKey=KeyName,ParameterValue=pgarbe \
               ParameterKey=ManagerDiskSize,ParameterValue=20 \
               ParameterKey=ManagerDiskType,ParameterValue=standard \
               ParameterKey=ManagerInstanceType,ParameterValue=t2.micro \
               ParameterKey=ManagerSize,ParameterValue=3 \
               ParameterKey=WorkerDiskSize,ParameterValue=20 \
               ParameterKey=WorkerDiskType,ParameterValue=standard

Get the public IP from one of the manager nodes.

ssh docker@<Public IP of manager node>

Deploy a service

docker service create \
  --name=viz \
  --publish=8080:8080/tcp \
  --constraint=node.role==manager \
  --mount=type=bind,src=/var/run/docker.sock,dst=/var/run/docker.sock \
  manomarks/visualizer

docker service create --publish 80:80 --name nginx nginx

ECS

tbd

aws cloudformation create-stack  \
  --template-body file://./ecs/cluster.yaml \
  --stack-name ecs-cluster \
  --capabilities CAPABILITY_IAM \
  --parameters ParameterKey=ParentVPCStack,ParameterValue=vpc \
               ParameterKey=ParentSSHBastionStack,ParameterValue=vpc-ssh-bastion \
               ParameterKey=KeyName,ParameterValue=pgarbe \
               ParameterKey=DesiredInstances,ParameterValue=3


aws cloudformation create-stack  \
  --template-body file://./ecs/service.yaml \
  --stack-name ecs-service \
  --capabilities CAPABILITY_NAMED_IAM \
  --parameters ParameterKey=ParentVPCStack,ParameterValue=vpc \
               ParameterKey=ParentECSStack,ParameterValue=ecs-cluster \
               ParameterKey=DesiredInstances,ParameterValue=2
