AWS App Runner adds Node.js v16 managed runtime for building and running node.js based web applications and APIs. App Runner allows you to deploy your application from source code or a container image directly in the AWS cloud. Regardless of the source type, App Runner takes care of starting, running, scaling, and load balancing your service. App Runner provides convenient platform-specific managed runtimes. Each one of these runtimes builds a container image from your source code and adds language runtime dependencies into your image. App Runner uses the managed runtime to build and deploy your application alleviating the need for you to develop and manage your own Dockerfiles.

Amazon Connect now provides a queue dashboard
Amazon Connect now provides a dashboard that enables you to view and compare real-time queue performance through time series graphs. You can review key metrics including service level, contacts queued, and average handle time to track and improve queue performance. For example, you can see when the current week service levels are lower than the prior week and determine if this is correlated with an increase in incoming contacts or average handle time to determine and implement corrective actions.
