At present, we can only launch a single container per task definition. Ecs provides multiple containers to be a part of same task-definition. We need ability to use multiple containers per task definition. This could be my app+logging or app+db container

We can now deploy a single service to multiple clusters but we cannot assign individual count for each service. For example - consul-client

           serviceUpdate:       
               - cluster:
                   - applications-dev
                   - consul-nginx-proxy-cluster `

This will deploy consul client to two different clusters but we cannot specify a specific count. We have a specify a count of maximum number of instances in a cluster. This way some containers will not be deployed as there are not enough instances to deploy them

               applications-dev : 6 ecs instances 
               consul-nginx-proxy-cluster: 2 instances
               Our count : 6 instances 

Which means for consul-nginx-proxy-cluster, we will only be able to 2 consul client while the other 4 will keep hanging.

At present environment mapping is hard coded in the script. Make environment mapping and along with global configuration through a master config file.
