Hi everyone, has anyone managed to integrate eventbus and ecs for event driven architecture? We want to put tasks in eventbus and then have an ecs task as a target. This works, but now we are trying to find a way to pass the event details to the task. Is this possible?

Hey @Chad (cysense), a side question, what r u running in ECS? And r u using fargate or ec2 machines?

We are thinking of adding support for ECS, and make working with Queues/Topics/Buses easier

We use ECS for a few things, but basically any long running service we put into ECS instead of lambda. So one instance of our ECS is an opensource tool we run, they provide a docker image so it was a no brainer. The new instance here is for scanning tools, can take longer than 15 mins to run

We use fargate atm

That would be exceptional. Unless I am mistaken, I think that would be a common pattern. Use ECS as part of an ETL pipeline and do event-drive architecture.

Would be really good to have higher-order components to help set some of this stuff up

Eventually figured out a way if anyone stumbles on this, its poorly documented on the interwebs but we'll write up a blog post and share it here once done.
