Automate Orchard Core Deployment on AWS ECS with CloudFormation

[goh-chunlin]

Dear all,

I was working with my colleagues from different teams to introduce Orchard Core into the respective systems. As we are using AWS internally, some teams feedback to me that they hope there is an easier way to setup Orchard Core on ECS with IaC so that they can spine it up and tear it down easily for demo and experiment.

Currently, there is not really an end-to-end AWS CloudFormation template available online which enables us to quickstart setup Orchard Core on Amazon ECS. So I decide to work on it: https://github.com/gcl-team/Experiment.OrchardCore.Main/blob/main/Infrastructure.yml.

I also wrote a blog post to explain each unit in the CloudFormation to guide the Orchard Core users who may be new to AWS and CloudFormation to understand my rationale behind the setup of each of the services.

Feel free to review my CloudFormation template above and let me know your thoughts! Maybe we can have a different IaC for different use cases and different cloud providers also.
