Summary

The guide provides a step-by-step process for deploying SpiceDB on Amazon Elastic Container Service (ECS) and Amazon Elastic Container Registry (ECR). It covers various aspects such as creating an ECS cluster, defining a task definition, running the task, adding schema and testing permissions, and running a datastore migration. The deployment is intended for learning purposes only, and it's not recommended to use SpiceDB on ECS as a production deployment target due to limitations in service discovery and horizontal dispatch. The guide provides a CloudFormation template to deploy SpiceDB to ECS, including the creation of an RDS instance for Postgres and a secrets manager for authenticated requests. The final section highlights the limitations of deploying SpiceDB on ECS and recommends using Kubernetes or Amazon EKS instead.
