Amazon Elastic Beanstalk

Easy to begin, Impossible to outgrow

Create a Free Account

Amazon 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.

You can simply upload your code and Elastic Beanstalk automatically handles the deployment, from capacity provisioning, load balancing, auto-scaling to application health monitoring. At the same time, you retain full control over the Amazon Web Services resources powering your application and can access the underlying resources at any time.

There is no additional charge for Elastic Beanstalk - you pay only for the Amazon Web Services resources needed to store and run your applications.

Benefits

Fast and Simple to Begin

Elastic Beanstalk is the fastest and simplest way to deploy your application on Amazon Web Services. You simply use the Amazon Management Console, a Git repository, or an integrated development environment (IDE) such as Eclipse or Visual Studio to upload your application, and Elastic Beanstalk automatically handles the deployment details of capacity provisioning, load balancing, auto-scaling, and application health monitoring. Within minutes, your application will be ready to use without any infrastructure or resource configuration work on your part.

Complete Resource Control

You have the freedom to select the Amazon Web Services resources, such as Amazon EC2 instance type, that are optimal for your application. Additionally, Elastic Beanstalk lets you "open the hood" and retain full control over the Amazon Web Services resources powering your application. If you decide you want to take over some (or all) of the elements of your infrastructure, you can do so seamlessly by using Elastic Beanstalk's management capabilities.

Possible to Outgrow

Elastic Beanstalk automatically scales your application up and down based on your application's specific need using easily adjustable Auto Scaling settings. For example, you can use CPU utilization metrics to trigger Auto Scaling actions. With Elastic Beanstalk, your application can handle peaks in workload or traffic while minimizing your costs.

Developer Productivity

Elastic Beanstalk provisions and operates the infrastructure and manages the application stack for you, so you don't have to spend the time or develop the expertise. Instead, you can focus on writing code rather than spending time managing and configuring servers, databases, load balancers, firewalls, and networks.
