AWS App Runner is a fully managed container application service that makes it easy for developers to run web applications at scale with no prior AWS experience required. Developers provide the source code or container image and AWS App Runner builds and deploys the application. App Runner also scales the underlying infrastructure and load balances traffic using end-to-end encryption.
In this lab, you will examine an AWS App Runner service. You will not be deploying or configuring any resources in this lab and will only be granted read-only permissions to explore the service using the AWS console.
