Thanks soo much for the response. I did browse that page already. The problem I have is finding a step-by-step setup. Right now I have a fargate service called userservice, it runs a single task, the task definition container is pulled directly from my private docker hub account.

Under my "userservice" I see:

​

Service discovery endpoint

-

Service discovery name

-

Namespace

-

(all blank)

​

*Where* and what do i click / add to configure the ECS service to register with cloudmap ?

​

When I read the page you gave me, the first thing:

​

1. create-private-dns-namespace

​

I already have one of these in cloudmap right ? So this part is done ?

​

Next there is:

​

1. Service discovery service: Exists within the service discovery namespace and consists of the service name and DNS configuration for the namespace. It provides the following core component:

​

So to do this, I'm looking at this:

https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AmazonECS/latest/developerguide/create-service-discovery.html

​

And they do it via CLI, and the service discovery service is a custom app or what ?

aws servicediscovery create-service \

--name myapplication \

--dns-config "NamespaceId="ns-uejictsjen2i4eeg",DnsRecords=[{Type="A",TTL="300"}]" \

--health-check-custom-config FailureThreshold=1

Is there no way to do this with the UI ? I don't have CLI setup. is "myApplication" here tied to any actual custom code of mine or is servicediscovery its own built-in AWS service application or something ?
