OpenResty provides a low-cost option for customers who want to use a load balancer with ECS. By using the OpenResty version, the functionality of standard NGINX is enhanced and expanded. It integrates libraries and add-on modules that allow for enhanced monitoring and customization of NGINX with ECS. Sample Lua scripts were provided and the reader can modify and extend these samples based on specific requirements. Examples and best practices were described in this white paper to provide guidance and a reference to architects interested in deploying NGINX (OpenResty) with ECS.
