Deployment Workflow

The typical deployment workflow includes:

Project Analysis: Use LOCAL_AnalyzeDeployStack to identify the project's technology stack and deployment method
Build Artifacts: Build or package the application locally (e.g., create tar.gz or zip files)
Deploy Application: Use OOS_CodeDeploy to deploy the application to ECS instances
- Automatically creates application and application group if they don't exist
- Uploads artifacts to OSS
- Deploys to specified ECS instances
Monitor Deployment: Use OOS_GetDeployStatus to check deployment status
