Native CI/CD Support for Docker Build and Deployment to ECS/EKS

We’re using AWS CodeBuild and CodePipeline to handle application Docker builds and deployment workflows for EKS and ECS. We would prefer to run these workflows natively in Spacelift

Why It Matters:

  • Bringing CI and CD into Spacelift would create tighter integration across their IaC and application lifecycle

  • Enables cleaner handoff between infrastructure and app teams

  • Reduces reliance on fragmented toolchains (e.g., CodeBuild, GitHub Actions, Jenkins)

  • Great fit for teams with Kubernetes or ECS-based deployments

Suggested Implementation Ideas:

  • Blueprint template for containerized application delivery

  • Stack pattern with Docker build and deploy lifecycle baked in

  • Native support for Docker build commands + ECR push

  • Event triggers (e.g., git push to specific path) to drive app deployments

Workaround
We considered using custom modules or provisioning private workers to handle this, but it would be “very low-level,” painful to manage, and would require manual container tooling setup on private infra.
