AWS App Runner now adds service level metrics for CPU utilization, Compute Memory utilization, and the total number of concurrent requests served by the App Runner service in the App Runner console and Amazon CloudWatch. App Runner makes it easier for developers to quickly deploy containerized web applications and APIs to the cloud, at scale, and without managing infrastructure. Earlier, you could only view the CPU and memory utilization at application instance level. Now, you can view all these metrics at your App Runner service level. You can use these metrics to optimize your App Runner service’s auto-scaling configuration by analyzing the CPU and Memory utilization for the concurrent requests served by your service.

With the newly added metrics, you can now view 7 service level metrics in App Runner console that provide you with greater visibility into the usage, performance, and availability of your App Runner services. The service level metrics available in App Runner console and Amazon CloudWatch are - Concurrent requests, CPU utilization, Memory utilization, Request count, HTTP 2xx response count, HTTP 4xx response count, HTTP 5xx response count, Request latency, and Active instances. To learn more about these metrics, see Metrics section in the developer guide. To learn more about App Runner, see the AWS App Runner Developer Guide.
