AWS Elastic Beanstalk
Recently learnt about AWS Elastic Beanstalk ...My understanding and my take
AWS Elastic Beanstalk -
- Used to deploy application on AWS infrastructre
- Platform as a service (PaaS)
- Automatically handles capacity provisioning load balancing, scaling, application health monitoring, instance configuration, etc. but have full control over the configuration
- Free (pay for the underlying resources)
- Supports versioning of application code
- Can create multiple environment (dev,prod,test)
- Supports the deployment of web applications from docker container and automatically handles load balancing, auto scaling, monitoring and placing containers across the cluster .
Web and Working Environments -
- Web Environment (web server tier) - clients request are directly handled by EC2 instances through a load balancer
- Worker Environment (worker tier) - clients requests are in SQS queue and the EC2 instances will will pull the messages to process them. scaling depends upon the number of SQS messages in the queue
