Upgrade your mission-critical applications with ClearScale
Contain the chaos with ClearScale’s modernizing a Java app with Amazon ECS Proof of Concept (PoC)
Containers offer flexibility because it packages up code and all its dependencies, so the application runs quickly and reliably from one computing environment to another. Application development and deployment becomes much easier because now the application is “decoupled” from other components, allowing you to update/add new features to a branch of an application without having to re-configure the entire application. This is known as decoupling. Containers are based on images that encapsulate application code, runtime, system tools, system libraries, and settings all in one “container”. Through this 5-week modernizing a java app with Amazon ECS proof of concept, you will leave with:
- One Java app containerized and deployed on ECS in your AWS environment
- A task definition, Dockerfile, and deployment scripts codified and tuned for your Java application and registered in Elastic Container Registry Java app external communication plan and validation (such as communication with a data layer)

Proof of concept (PoC): Modernizing a Java app with Amazon ECS details
How do we do it? Three easy steps!
Step 1:
Discovery - 1 week
- Access and authorization
- Review and identify application, dependencies, and configurations
- Review persistent data requirements
- Review JVM parameters, garbage collection requirements
- Identify services that can be externalized
- Task definition requirements gathering
- Confirm orchestration tools method
Step 2:
Design and build - 3 weeks
- Create version control methodology
- Design dependency map/strategy
- Establishment of baseline configuration
- Create an installation procedure and scripts to configure each service via Dockerfile
- Build docker images for services within the application
- Register new images in Amazon Elastic Container Registry (ECR)
- Build, test, analyze, tune, iterate to production baseline configuration
Step 3:
Deploy - 1 week
- Finalize deployment scripts
- Prepare deployment environment
- Deploy ECR images to Amazon Elastic Container Service (ECS)
Containerizing a legacy application will empower your development team to automate and minimize the stress of deploying applications. ClearScale will help put your team on a path toward modernizing applications and supporting no-downtime deployments, high availability, and horizontal scaling.
