Easy and solid backend solution for web apps

The service solved completely the needing for a server that can be deployed within to steps and only charges for what you are using .

PROS

It needed to host a NodeJs client to implement an AWS Amplify app without having access restrictions so Elastic Beanstalk came has a solution.

CONS

Maybe it could allow to connect a repository for automatic deployment. This will change a lot the way you have to build your app, nowadays you have to upload a zip.

Simple tool to distribute application, perhaps too old by now

We use AWS Elastic Beanstalk for the deployment of some legacy applications. Upgrading the Environments (a PHP stack) results impossible for us because of many problems, then we decided to migrate to other modern solutions such as EKS.

PROS

Easy versions management. Easy to deploy applications with a complete stack with Load Balancer and auto-scaling dimensioning

CONS

Really unstable sometimes. We need to recreate completely the enviroments when it stucks on deploy problems. It starts up a lots of related services, such as Security Groups, Load Balancers and so on which can be really difficult to manage manually if you wanto to make some "clean up"

Effortless Managing Web Applications with Ease using AWS Elastic Beanstalk

With Elastic Beanstalk, I can quickly and easily deploy my application with a single click, and the platform will automatically handle tasks such as provisioning resources, load balancing, and automatic scaling. This reduces the time and effort required to deploy and manage applications, allowing me to focus on writing code and building great experiences for my users.

PROS

Beanstalk provides a cost-effective solution for deploying and managing web applications, as users only pay for the resources they consume, such as EC2 instances, S3 storage, and RDS databases.

CONS

As applications grow and consume more resources, the cost of using Beanstalk may increase, potentially becoming more expensive than other options.

It helps me to improve my productivity by focusing more on the coding standards and not the underlying infrastructure. 3. Also it provides great levels of flexibility, ease of usage for deploying & scaling web based application in AWS Platform based on the client specifications.

PROS

1. It offers a variety of programming languages compatibility for my diverse frameworks. 2. It has a very simple setup procurement and hence even people who are new to use Elastic Beanstalk find it very easy. 3. Also, it gives me the comfort of manage my business application orchestration with other AWS product services such as EC2, S3, SNS, etc.

CONS

1. Its cost is not definitive and it depends on the number of EC2 Instances and S3 Bucket size. 2. Although it has dedicated CLI for operability, most of the convenient features present in AWS CLI is not available.
