Instead of wrangling infrastructure, why not just write your code, and let something else do the rest for you?

And with the release of App Runner, AWS may have just made a quantifiable leap for many of their customers. App Runner exists to take a web application, either from its source code (Node.js or Python) or a container, and deploy it into the AWS cloud.

The beauty of this feature is that if your app is receiving no traffic, you aren’t paying for it at all, and it will only startup when needed.

While interface endpoints exist to allow resources in a VPC to access and deploy to App Runner, it doesn’t look like there’s any way for apps on App Runner to access resources in a VPC.
