Amazon ECS and EKS AI-Powered Troubleshooting

Amazon ECS and EKS now offer enhanced AI-powered troubleshooting in the AWS Management Console through Amazon Q Developer. This feature provides contextual assistance alongside error or status messages, helping you root cause issues and view mitigation suggestions with a single click.

ECS Console

In the ECS Console, use the "Inspect with Amazon Q" button to troubleshoot issues such as failed tasks, container health check failures, or deployment rollbacks. Click the status reason on task details, task definition details, or deployment details page, then click "Inspect with Amazon Q" to start troubleshooting. Amazon Q analyzes the issue, gathers relevant logs and metrics, helps you understand the root cause, and recommends mitigation actions.

EKS Console

The EKS console integrates Amazon Q throughout the observability dashboard, enabling you to inspect and troubleshoot cluster, control plane, and node health issues with contextual AI assistance. Click "Inspect with Amazon Q" directly from tables that outline issues, or click on an issue to view details and then select "Inspect with Amazon Q" to begin your investigation. Amazon Q provides deeper understanding of cluster-level insights, such as upgrade insights, and helps you proactively identify and mitigate potential issues. It also streamlines workload troubleshooting by investigating Kubernetes events on pods that indicate issues, accelerating root cause identification and resolution.

What to do

  • Use the "Inspect with Amazon Q" button in the ECS Console for troubleshooting tasks, task definitions, and deployments.
  • Use the "Inspect with Amazon Q" button in the EKS Console for cluster, control plane, and node health issues.
  • Visit the ECS developer guide and EKS user guide for more information.
