Overall Satisfaction with AWS Elastic Beanstalk
We use Elastic Beanstalk to deploy Node.js applications. In the past, we had to provision a server and then determine capacities. Now all of that worry is gone. Just upload and go! I love it. Now when we are asked to determine max load of the "system" we can pretty much just say, unlimited.
- Fast to deploy
- Easy to get up and running
- Easy to manage
- Command line interface could be easier, but it still works.
- Documentation could be better
- Overall the impact of using Elastic Beanstalk has been quite positive.
- The only difficult part is the global adoption by all of the teams.
We ended up with AWS Lambda to take workload off the developers and develop in tandem, then later integrate. We use both though.
