Is there a way to set up and configure schedule

Fargate Task Definitions

in an

ECS cluster

with an

Event Rule

with

cron

? If so what’s a good example?

With Lambda it looks something like:

// CloudWatch cron trigger
const syncLambdaSchedule = "cron(0 0 * * ? *)";
const syncLambdaRuleHandler: aws.cloudwatch.EventRuleEventHandler = syncLambda;
aws.cloudwatch.onSchedule(`${appName}-event`, syncLambdaSchedule, syncLambdaRuleHandler);

Thanks, I will play around with this.

It’s called scheduled ECS tasks. You can set that up using CloudWatch scheduled events. They support cron expressions and rate expressions. https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AmazonECS/latest/developerguide/scheduled_tasks.html
