Release: App Runner launches built-in X-Ray support on April 12, 2022
Your AWS App Runner service can now stream request traces to AWS X-Ray.
Release date: April 12, 2022
Changes
Starting today, you can opt in to add AWS X-Ray tracing to your AWS App Runner service. App Runner streams all request traces to X-Ray. For more information, see Tracing for your App Runner application with X-Ray in the AWS App Runner Developer Guide.
X-Ray is a service that collects data about requests that your application serves. X-Ray provides tools that you can use to view, filter, and gain insights into that data to identify issues and opportunities for optimization. X-Ray uses trace data from the AWS resources that power your cloud applications to generate a detailed service graph. The service graph shows the client, your frontend service, and backend services that your frontend service calls to process requests and persist data. Use the service graph to identify bottlenecks, latency spikes, and other issues to solve to improve the performance of your applications. For more information about X-Ray, see the AWS X-Ray Developer Guide.
