"Deploying containers on light sail"

5/5

What do you like best about Amazon Lightsail?

I struggled to depoy my container on ECS but Light sail has beginner friendly ui to deploy containers. I deployed my simple node.js image from docker hub to light sail. I need not to write any docker commands to access the container, I need to mention my image , port and some environment variables , light sail then gives a link through which I can view my node app. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Amazon Lightsail solving and how is that benefiting you?

I deployed my containerized node image on docker hub to light sail, which is super easy and quick . I can deploy up to 10 containers on the machine. Before this I have used ECS , I found deploying through light sail is easy and simple than ECS for simple containers.It also comes with some default templates like nginx, hello-world containers to getting started with light sail.
