ContainerDependency - Amazon GameLift

ContainerDependency

A container's dependency on another container in the same container group. The dependency impacts how the dependent container is able to start or shut down based the status of the other container.

For example, ContainerA is configured with the following dependency: a START dependency on ContainerB. This means that ContainerA can't start until ContainerB has started. It also means that ContainerA must shut down before ContainerB.
