Today, Amazon Web Services, Inc. (AWS), an Amazon.com, Inc.
company (NASDAQ:AMZN), announced AWS App Runner, a fully managed
container application service that makes it easier and faster for
customers to build, deploy, and run containerized web applications
and APIs with just a few clicks. AWS App Runner handles all of the
operational aspects of high-performance applications and APIs,
including provisioning, scaling, and managing the container
orchestrators, load balancers, and continuous
integration/continuous delivery (CI/CD) pipelines, as well as
allowing customers to run containers without having to think about
servers or clusters at all. Customers simply provide their source
code, container image, or deployment pipeline and AWS App Runner
builds and deploys the web application or API, load balances
network traffic, scales capacity up or down based on demand,
monitors application health, and encrypts traffic by default. With
AWS App Runner, customers can take advantage, in a matter of
minutes, of the portability, efficiency, and cost savings of
containers (even if they lack prior experience running and managing
containers) and development teams can focus on their business
applications instead of configuring services and managing
infrastructure. There are no upfront commitments or fees to use AWS
App Runner, and customers pay only for the compute and memory
resources used by their application. To get started, visit:

Web applications and APIs power the essential elements of
customers’ businesses, including end user-facing websites and
backend services that process important business logic. Because of
the business-critical nature of customers’ applications and APIs,
AWS provides customers with a wide choice of powerful tools for
full control over the deployment and operation of their
applications, including the ability to scale the underlying
infrastructure and load balance and encrypt network traffic.
However, some customers don’t require such a fine degree of control
and want to eliminate the added time and operational complexity
that comes with configuring and integrating every underlying
infrastructure service. While AWS Fargate has made it much easier
for customers to deploy and run containerized applications without
having to manage compute clusters or capacity, some customers have
asked for a fully managed service to streamline their entire
container environment. These customers want to simply point to
their existing code or container repository and have their
applications and APIs run and scale automatically in the cloud.
They want a fully managed service that handles all of the tasks
associated with running containerized applications like building
and configuring container orchestrators, load balancers, and CI/CD
pipelines, as well as ensuring consistent application and API
response times by reducing latency and eliminating cold starts—even
when their development teams lack prior experience deploying and
managing containers or infrastructure.
AWS App Runner streamlines a customer’s entire container
environment by providing the easiest and fastest way to build,
deploy, and run modern containerized web applications and APIs on
AWS. Customers can launch their web application or API by
connecting AWS App Runner to their source code or container image
and selecting “deploy” from the AWS App Runner console. The
underlying compute is automatically deployed, scaled, and managed
leveraging AWS Fargate, the serverless compute engine that powers
hundreds of millions of containers on AWS in a secure
environment—thereby eliminating the need for customers to choose
instances and scale cluster capacity. AWS App Runner is built with
AWS operational and configuration best practices, including
automated safe deployments (which monitor and test a new
application environment before live traffic is routed to it to
minimize interruptions caused by changing application versions) and
health checks. Additionally, AWS App Runner load balances traffic
based on incoming requests and automatically scales resources
according to traffic patterns. There is no need to build and
configure CI/CD pipelines with AWS App Runner because it
automatically detects changes to code or a container image and
deploys a new version of the application. Furthermore, by
provisioning memory to keep idle applications warm, AWS App Runner
eliminates cold starts and provides a consistent application
response time. With AWS App Runner, network traffic is encrypted by
default so customers do not have to set up or manage encryption
keys. AWS App Runner makes it easier and faster for developers
(even those with no prior containers or infrastructure experience)
to build, deploy, and run modern containerized web applications
with just a few clicks, using a single service.
“AWS offers the broadest range of container technology in the
cloud, and more and more customers want to benefit from the
portability, efficiency, and cost savings containers provide,” said
Deepak Singh, VP, Compute Services, AWS. “However, customers have
asked us to make it even easier to get their containerized web
applications up and running quickly so they can see these benefits
more quickly. We are proud to give these customers AWS App Runner,
a fully managed service that makes it possible to go from source
code or container image to a securely running web application with
just a few clicks. With AWS App Runner, development teams—even
those who have never used containers or managed infrastructure—can
get a containerized application up and running in minutes, so these
customers can instead focus on creating the applications that drive
their businesses forward rather than managing the underlying
hardware and software infrastructure.”
AWS App Runner is available today in US East (N. Virginia), US
West (Oregon), US East (Ohio), Asia Pacific (Tokyo), and Europe
(Ireland), with availability in additional regions coming soon.
