What is AWS Elastic Beanstalk
Finding the right tools to migrate, build or modernize your cloud-based web app can be complex with all the choices available it can be difficult to know which ones to use, and afterwards it’s up to you to manage multiple services to provision infrastructure, handle deployments and scale your web app.
What if you can instead focus on writing code and building great Apps. This will let you not worry about provisioning services, scaling infrastructure, or updating your platform with the latest patches.
AWS Elastic Beanstalk is an easy-to-use service for deploying and scaling web applications and services developed with Java, .NET, Nodejs, Python, and many more on familiar servers like Nginx etc.
Elastic Beanstalk automatically manages the services needed to host and scale your application. You can get started with elastic beanstalk by migrating your application and uploading your source code bundle to Elastic Beanstalk using the management console or command-line interface.
Elastic Beanstalk returns a URL for your new Web App and automatically handles the deployment details such as provisioning, Load Balancing, Auto Scaling, and Application Health Monitoring. You also have the option to configure your Web APP to run on your preferred instance type or to add resources such as a virtual private cloud or a Relational Database.
Elastic Beanstalk also provides a pathway to modernization. You can implement portions of your application as containerized services. Also, when you link to your existing web app, it creates a distributed application.
There’s no additional charge for Elastic Beanstalk you pay for the AWS services needed to store and run your applications. You will also be able to focus on building web backend, websites, content management systems, and even saas applications without spending a lot of time managing and configuring Infrastructure.
