Shutting down video processing in the ECS

If you have deployed a model in an ECS and want to shut it down because you have made a mistake or want to save costs, you can use the ecsshutdown command. This command will stop all running services, tasks, and container instances in the ECS cluster. Any completed video track results are also removed from S3 and auto-scaling is disabled for the ECS service temporarily to prevent new tasks from starting for 5 minutes.

About the ecsshutdown command

This is not the same as deleting the stack, which will remove all resources including the ECS cluster, rendering it unusable. This command is intended to temporarily stop processing and save costs or correct a mistake.

Examples

To shutdown the ECS cluster called benthic33k:

deepsea-ai ecsshutdown --cluster benthic33k

You should see the following response:
