Lightsail Container Service

Lightsail Container Service is a managed container hosting option in Amazon Lightsail that allows you to easily deploy, manage, and scale containerized applications without needing to manage servers or complex infrastructure. It provides a simplified experience compared to Amazon ECS or EKS, making it ideal for small to medium workloads, prototypes, and developers who want to run containers with minimal setup.

current_deploymentcorejsonAn object that describes the current container deployment of the container service.
is_disabledcoreboolA Boolean value indicating whether the container service is disabled.
locationcorejsonAn object that describes the location of the container service, such as the Amazon Web Services Region and Availability Zone.
next_deploymentcorejsonAn object that describes the next deployment of the container service. This value is null when there is no deployment in a pending state.
powercorestringThe power specification of the container service. The power specifies the amount of RAM, the number of vCPUs, and the base price of the container service.
power_idcorestringThe ID of the power of the container service.
principal_arncorestringThe principal ARN of the container service. The principal ARN can be used to create a trust relationship between your standard Amazon Web Services account and your Lightsail container service. This allows you to give your service permission to access resources in your standard Amazon Web Services account.
private_domain_namecorestringThe private domain name of the container service. The private domain name is accessible only by other resources within the default virtual private cloud (VPC) of your Lightsail account.
private_registry_accesscorejsonAn object that describes the configuration for the container service to access private container image repositories, such as Amazon Elastic Container Registry (Amazon ECR) private repositories. For more information, see Configuring access to an Amazon ECR private repository for an Amazon Lightsail container service in the Amazon Lightsail Developer Guide.
public_domain_namescorestringThe public domain name of the container service, such as example.com and www.example.com. You can specify up to four public domain names for a container service. The domain names that you specify are used when you create a deployment with a container configured as the public endpoint of your container service. If you don't specify public domain names, then you can use the default domain of the container service. You must create and validate an SSL/TLS certificate before you can use public domain names with your container service. Use the CreateCertificate action to create a certificate for the public domain names you want to use with your container service. See CreateContainerService or UpdateContainerService for information about how to specify public domain names for your Lightsail container service.
resource_typecorestringThe Lightsail resource type of the container service.

READY - The container service is running but it does not have an active container deployment. DEPLOYING - The container service is launching a container deployment. RUNNING - The container service is running and it has an active container deployment. UPDATING - The container service capacity or its custom domains are being updated. DELETING - The container service is being deleted. DISABLED - The container service is disabled, and its active deployment and containers, if any, are shut down.
