The new feature decouples daemon lifecycle management from application deployments, so platform teams can deploy and update agents (e.g., CloudWatch Agent) without coordinating with application teams or modifying task definitions. Daemons are guaranteed to start before application tasks and drain last, ensuring continuous observability coverage. A new daemon_bridge network mode isolates daemon networking, and rolling deployments with automatic rollbacks are supported. The feature is available in all AWS regions at no additional cost beyond standard compute resources. ## Full article daily.dev links to this article rather than hosting it.
