Tell us about your request Add support for Linux/Arm (Graviton) instances and a lower cost for running them.
Describe alternatives you've considered We could run Linux/Arm containers in Fargate, but it wouldn't get the same features as App Runner. We also could use x86 containers in app runner, but it wouldn't give any cost savings that Linux/Arm (graviton) could.
I use Python across my application code base (mainly Lambda functions) and I select ARM everywhere as part of cost/sustainability. I'd like to select ARM for the web-ui I am deploying to App Runner. The cost of using ECS/Fargate/ALB and the operational overhead compared to App Runner don't justify that approach. I will continue to use App Runner with x86 but will switch to Graviton the moment it is released as I will need to make no adjustments.
Any updates on this? Had a quick search and it appears that ARM/Graviton is still not supported. Definitely a +1 here.
Can we get an update on this please? Hoping this will be moved to "Researching" soon so we can achiever better price performance and also help the environment :)
