Today, Amazon Web Services, Inc. (AWS), an Amazon.com, Inc.
company (NASDAQ: AMZN), announced the general availability of AWS
Proton, an application delivery service that makes it easier for
customers to provision, deploy, and monitor the microservices that
form the basis of modern container and serverless applications.
With AWS Proton, a customer’s infrastructure team creates standard
application stacks defining the architecture, infrastructure
resources, CI/CD (continuous integration and continuous delivery)
pipeline, and observability tools—and then makes these stacks
available to their developers. Developers can use AWS Proton’s
self-service interface to select an application stack for use with
their code. AWS Proton automatically provisions the resources for
the selected application stack, deploys the code, and sets up
monitoring so developers can begin building serverless and
container applications without having to learn, configure, or
maintain the underlying resources. There are no upfront commitments
or fees to use AWS Proton, and customers pay only for the AWS
services used to create, scale, and run their applications. To get

Container and serverless applications improve an organization’s
agility and reduce their operational burden; however, they also
change the way customers deploy and manage their code. Today, when
developers build traditional applications on Amazon Elastic Compute
Cloud (Amazon EC2) instances, the applications are often built as a
single block of code, and there are well-established tools that
help them develop and deploy their code—like AWS
CloudFormation templates (to provision the infrastructure), AWS
CodePipeline (to set up the CI/CD process), and Amazon CloudWatch
(to monitor the deployments). Once customers get an application up
and running on Amazon EC2, the components of the application
typically don’t change very much. For these applications, the code
is usually maintained in a single release, so keeping it
coordinated is relatively easy.
By contrast, container and serverless applications are assembled
from multiple smaller chunks of code (microservices), which are
often developed and maintained independently and then stitched
together to build and scale an application. Each microservice has
its own separate infrastructure, code templates, CI/CD pipelines,
and monitoring that must be updated and maintained. Often, these
microservices are developed and operated by different teams, so
those teams have the freedom to update the components at their own
pace. This results in changes happening more frequently than with
traditional applications. As customers have increasingly adopted
container and serverless applications, they have found that
managing hundreds, or even thousands, of microservices with
constantly changing and disparate infrastructure resources, code
deployments, and monitoring tools can be a challenging task for
even the most capable teams. Customers lack an integrated solution
that ties together all the tasks, including resource provisioning,
code deployments, and monitoring. Central infrastructure teams try
to provide guidance to their developers, and some have even built
their own custom tools to help developers implement best practices.
However, for many organizations, the intricacies of coordinating
the development and deployment of container and serverless
applications can negatively impact quality and security, and can
slow down application development and container and serverless
adoption.
AWS Proton is an application delivery service that helps
platform teams provide an easy way for their developers to
provision, deploy, and monitor applications when the unit of
compute is dynamic, like with containers and serverless. AWS Proton
allows customers to define application components as a stack, which
creates everything needed to provision, deploy, and monitor an
application, including compute, networking, code pipeline,
security, and monitoring. AWS Proton includes curated application
stacks with built-in AWS best practices (for security,
architecture, and tools), so infrastructure teams can quickly and
easily distribute trusted stacks to their development teams. A
customer’s central infrastructure team can easily create and
publish a stack to the AWS Proton console. The stack defines all of
the infrastructure and tooling for the microservice, and provides
consistency and standards across the organization. When a developer
is ready to deploy their code, they pick the stack that best suits
their use case, plug in the parameters for their application, and
click deploy. AWS Proton handles everything needed to deploy the
application, including provisioning the requested AWS services,
pushing code through the CI/CD pipeline, setting up monitoring and
alarms, and compiling, testing, and deploying the code. The AWS
Proton console lists the microservices that are using each stack,
so it is easy for infrastructure teams to make sure all
microservices are updated as needed. With AWS Proton,
infrastructure teams can also easily manage their container and
serverless deployments and focus on creating great
applications—instead of spending hours setting up infrastructure
for each development team.
“Customers have told us that while they love the operational
benefits that container and serverless applications provide, it is
incredibly challenging to scale these architectures across their
organizations because of the many manual tasks involved in
deploying apps that use microservices,” said Deepak Singh, VP,
Compute Services, AWS. “AWS Proton brings together customers’
infrastructure as code, CI/CD pipeline, and observability into a
single interface, so developers can quickly go from code in a repo
to a production application. Developers rely on AWS Proton’s
self-service capabilities to deploy code quickly and securely
without having to become experts on each of the underlying services
involved, while the central infrastructure team can be assured that
the apps deployed by their developers using AWS Proton meet the
standards they have set for their business.”
AWS Proton is available today in US East (N. Virginia), US East
(Ohio), US West (Oregon), Europe (Ireland), and Asia Pacific
(Tokyo) with additional region availability coming soon.
