@Marvin Can you write me a deployment file for an ECS worker?

Well, it seems we've found some useful information. Here's a brief summary: To deploy a Prefect worker using ECS, you'll need to use the Prefect Helm chart. You'll also need to set up a Kubernetes secret for the API key and mount it as an environment variable. The worker will then be able to communicate with Prefect Cloud and execute your Prefect flows. Here's a basic outline of the steps: 1. Install Helm and Kubernetes CLI on your machine. You can find the installation guides for Helm and Kubernetes CLI. 2. Configure your worker with the proper account, workspace, and work pool settings. 3. Install the Prefect worker using the Helm chart with your custom values.yaml file:
helm install prefect-worker prefect/prefect-worker --namespace=prefect -f values.yaml
. 4. Verify your deployment by checking the status of your Prefect worker:
kubectl get pods -n prefect
. You can find more detailed instructions in the Prefect documentation here. Remember, the worker is like a diligent employee, always ready to execute your flows. But unlike human employees, it won't ask for a raise or take a coffee break. Ah, the beauty of automation.
