What kind of monitoring is available today for ECS and can you tell us what will be coming soon?

Also interested in seeing a dashboard which tells me where my resources are and what they're up to. At scale, any of the docker management solutions will need to make it simple to track patterns.

Yeah, I definitely think that the EC2 layer should be invisible.

Let the auto-scaler scale up and down the containers automatically while allocating underlying EC2 instances as needed.

If we're managing containers, then we don't want to always have to pick and choose the underlying sizes of instances they run on.

Is there a best practice or planned support for local environments which use ECS for production/test workloads?

There was mention of eb local (elasticbeanstalk engine for local use) but that has yet to be released.
