Amazon ECS adds automatic detection and repair of impaired agent connectivity

Tue, 25 Aug 2026 11:19:32 +0000

Platform/SRE — Plan: A new GA ECS capability worth adopting this quarter: Fargate and Managed Instances now auto-drain and replace impaired instances, while EC2-based ECS surfaces the new AGENT_CONNECTIVITY health event that teams must wire into their own instance-replacement automation. No deadline, but teams running ECS on EC2 should build the event-driven replacement workflow to gain equivalent resilience.
