**Tell us about your request**
- I would need the option to talk to the docker API via CLI inside of my application running in a container in Amazon Elastic Container Service (Amazon ECS). OnPrem I mount the docker socket of the host into my container `-v /var/run/docker.sock:/var/run/docker.sock`
Is this now possible in ECS? How would be the command to do this?
**Which service(s) is this request for?**
