AWS App Runner is a new platform-as-a-service offering from Amazon Web Services that simplifies the deployment of containerized applications by abstracting infrastructure management, allowing developers to concentrate on coding. It integrates seamlessly with Drone for continuous integration and continuous deployment (CI/CD) and Harness for enhanced deployment control, providing a streamlined process from code commit to production. The service resembles Rancher Rio in its ability to create publicly accessible routes for deployments without complex networking configurations. To get started, developers need to set up a Drone installation, an Amazon Elastic Container Registry (ECR) for storing Docker images, and configure AWS App Runner to deploy these images. The integration of Harness with AWS App Runner offers greater flexibility, enabling developers to manage diverse technologies and choose the best AWS services for specific workloads, such as Fargate or EC2 instances, enhancing the deployment experience across various environments.
