I just had a stopped AWS ECS task go missing from ListTasks before *10 minutes* had elapsed.
once upon a time the documentation read:
> Recently stopped tasks might appear in the returned results. Currently, stopped tasks appear in the returned results for at least one hour.
it now reads:
> Recently stopped tasks might appear in the returned results.
OK, AWS doc writers, setle down now. 68 years is a bit aspirational for an ECS task, i'd say.
> If your service's tasks take a while to start and respond to health checks, you can specify a health check grace period of up to 2,147,483,647 seconds during which the ECS service scheduler ignores the health check status.

It's weird sometimes to realize that other people DON'T have Firesign Theatre excerpts running in their head. Most of the time. Not ALL the time. Just most.
