AWS AppConfig Agent simplifies feature flag and configuration use for Amazon EC2
AWS AppConfig, a capability of AWS Systems Manager, announces support for the AWS AppConfig Agent on Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (Amazon EC2).

Previously, customers needed to manage their own polling and caching of data when running applications on Amazon EC2. Now, the agent takes care of these tasks. With this update, the AWS AppConfig Agent now has native support for the following compute services: AWS Lambda, Amazon Elastic Container Service (Amazon ECS), Amazon Elastic Kubernetes Service (Amazon EKS), and Amazon EC2.
