The AWS Elastic Beanstalk is an easy-to-use service from Amazon Web Services for deploying and scaling the web applications & services that are developed using Java, .Net, PHP, Node.js, Python, Ruby, Go, and Docker on familiar servers like Apache, Nginx, Passenger, and IIS.

With AWS Elastic Beanstalk, all one needs to do is upload their code and then the Elastic Beanstalk would automatically step in to handle the complete deployment process – from capacity provisioning and load balancing to auto-scaling and application health monitoring.

AWS Elastic Beanstalk is undoubtedly the fastest way to get web applications up and running on AWS. If you are working with a PHP, Java, Python, Ruby, Node.js, .NET, Go, or Docker web application, then AWS Elastic Beanstalk should be a preferred option for you.

At its core, the AWS Elastic Beanstalk uses the core AWS services such as the Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud or the Amazon EC2, Amazon Elastic Container Service (ECS), AWS Auto Scaling, and Elastic Load Balancing (ELB) for supporting applications to scale them up for handling traffic from millions of users spread across geographies. 

we can understand why AWS cloud computing and AWS Elastic Beanstalk, in particular, have been extremely useful for some of the most known brands in the world like Zillow, Prezi, JellyButton Games, BMW, Crowd Chat, Samsung Business, etc., right?
