OpenVidu with ECS cluster of EC2 instances

Issues with deployment
1

Hi guys,
Does anyone try to use Amazon ECS cluster to start OpenVidu?

I mean, instead of using the on-premises option or the Cloudformation, we save an AMI image from an existing EC2 instance that was created by CloudFormation (provided by OpenVidu) and use that AMI image to create nodes in ECS cluster.

I am trying to implement autoscaling for OpenVidu. If you have any other suggestions to use OpenVidu with Autoscaling on AWS, that would great too.

Thanks in advance.

Autoscaling is a complex topic in WebRTC services.

OpenVidu PRO implements autoscaling for OpenVidu applications in AWS. You don’t have to implement it by yourself.

As OpenVidu CE is open source, you can add autoscaling to it as we do in OpenVidu PRO, but it is not trivial.
