In your project, you can configure .gitlab_ci.yaml to make many things, one of them is to deploy your application, and there are many ways, one of them is to:

  • Create a docker of your project
  • Push the image to ECR
  • Create a new ECS task definition with the new version of your docker image
  • Create a new ECS service with the new version of the task definition

and to do so, you need effectively the credentials of AWS that you have configured in your GitLab repository.

After that their many ways to deploy from GitLab to AWS, it depends on your company and what tools you are using.
