AWS Elastic Beanstalk

AWS Elastic Beanstalk is an easy-to-use service for deploying and scaling web applications and services developed with Java, .NET, PHP, Node.js, Python, Ruby, Go, and Docker on familiar servers such as Apache, Nginx, Passenger, and IIS.Users simply upload their codes and Elastic Beanstalk automatically handles the deployment, from capacity provisioning, load balancing, auto-scaling to application health monitoring. At the same time, a user retains full control over the AWS resources powering their application and can access the underlying resources at any time. There is no additional charge for Elastic Beanstalk – users pay only for the AWS resources needed to store and run their applications.Elastic Beanstalk is the fastest and simplest way to deploy applications on AWS. Organizations can use the AWS Management Console, a Git repository, or an integrated development environment (IDE) such as Eclipse or Visual Studio to upload their applications, and Elastic Beanstalk automatically handles the deployment details of capacity provisioning, load balancing, auto-scaling, and application health monitoring. Within minutes, applications will be ready to use without any infrastructure or resource configuration work on a user’s part. Elastic Beanstalk provisions and operates the infrastructure and manages the application stack (platform) for users, so they don't have to spend the time or develop the expertise. It will also keep the underlying platform running a user’s application up-to-date with the latest patches and updates. Instead, you can focus on writing code rather than spending time managing and configuring servers, databases, load balancers, firewalls, and networks.

Elastic Beanstalk automatically scales applications up and down based on a user’s application's specific need using easily adjustable Auto Scaling settings. With Elastic Beanstalk, an application can handle peaks in workload or traffic while minimizing costs.
