Hi, I am trying to find a way to use Elastic Agent to monitor containers in AWS ECS. I did not manage to find any official guide by Elastic.  
Just wondering if anyone have done this before or know how to achieve this.

Hey @Nick_Bolten, welcome to discuss 🙂

A good place to start could be the Fleet and Elastic Agent guide available here: [Fleet and Elastic Agent Guide [8.3] | Elastic](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/fleet/8.3/index.html)

Regarding Amazon ECS, I think that there is no integration explicitly designed for it, but you may try with the AWS CloudWatch one: [AWS CloudWatch | Elastic Documentation](https://docs.elastic.co/integrations/aws/cloudwatch). Or if you are using Fargate there is also an integration for it: [AWS Fargate | Elastic Documentation](https://docs.elastic.co/integrations/awsfargate)
