Deploying to Elastic Beanstalk

Amazon Elastic Beanstalk is a service that simplifies the process of provisioning Amazon resources for your application. Elastic Beanstalk provides all of the Amazon infrastructure required to deploy your application. This infrastructure includes:

  • Amazon EC2 instances that host the executables and content for your application.

  • An Auto Scaling group to maintain the appropriate number of Amazon EC2 instances to support your application.

  • An Elastic Load Balancing load balancer that routes incoming traffic to the Amazon EC2 instance with the most bandwidth.

The Toolkit for Visual Studio provides a wizard that simplifies publishing applications through Elastic Beanstalk. This wizard is described in the following sections.
