Elastic Beanstalk

Brand Details

Type: Service

Description: AWS Elastic Beanstalk is a Platform as a Service (PaaS) offering from Amazon Web Services that simplifies the deployment and scaling of web applications and services. Users upload their code, and Elastic Beanstalk automatically handles the entire deployment process, including provisioning capacity, load balancing, auto-scaling, and application health monitoring. It manages the underlying infrastructure, including the operating system, security, and application layer, allowing developers to focus on coding rather than infrastructure management. It supports various programming languages and frameworks. While Elastic Beanstalk handles much of the infrastructure automatically, developers retain control and can customize configurations as needed. However, for simple static websites (HTML, CSS, JavaScript), using Amazon S3 with CloudFront is generally recommended as a more cost-effective solution. Elastic Beanstalk is more suitable for applications requiring server-side processing or dynamic content.
