As another Faraday employee, I'll add that we didn't start right away with deployment. Instead, we used docker to provide a consistent way to test our apps. Once all of our apps were properly dockerized to run tests, we were able to move to deploying the app with a simple docker-machine + docker-compose setup. After that, it was a relatively easy move to ECS. docker-compose can probably handle 80% of your development needs, but the tool we wrote allowed us to quickly switch our apps from a canonical "image mode" to "source mode" while developing. It also provided a way to run acceptance tests locally with our entire app cluster running locally. A little more info: https://dkastner.github.io/2015/07/25/accidental-continuous-...
