Elastic Beanstalk

Deploy web and worker applications to production on AWS with full lifecycle management. Elastic Beanstalk is an application management service: the user provides application code, AWS manages everything underneath (deployment, scaling, patching, monitoring, health response).

When to Use

Elastic Beanstalk is the right choice when:

User explicitly asks for Elastic Beanstalk, EB, or a managed application platform
User says "don't want to manage servers", "managed patching", or "Heroku-like"
User is migrating from Heroku, Render, or Railway
User wants AWS to manage ongoing operational lifecycle (patching, scaling, health monitoring, rollback, deployments) after initial setup
App is a web framework, API, or background worker on a standard runtime and the user signals low infrastructure involvement

Elastic Beanstalk is NOT the right choice when:

User explicitly wants serverless/Lambda — this imposes a different programming model (event-driven functions, stateless, cold starts, 15-min max execution) rather than just eliminating server management
User wants fine-grained container orchestration control (use ECS)
User already has Kubernetes expertise and wants direct K8s access (use EKS)
App is a static site or SPA (use Amplify Hosting for the frontend; deploy the backend API separately if present)
User already has ECS task definitions or Fargate configuration

Key Distinction

ECS and EKS are infrastructure management services: the user defines and operates the deployment infrastructure (task definitions, services, clusters, scaling policies) and owns ongoing operational decisions. Elastic Beanstalk is an application management service: the user provides source code or a Docker image, and AWS provisions and operates the production environment on an ongoing basis. The result is the same reliability, but with lower ongoing maintenance cost because operational responsibility stays with the provider.

Both models support IaC (CDK, CloudFormation, Terraform). The distinction is not about tooling — it is about who manages the lifecycle after deployment.

Lambda/serverless is a different axis entirely. "Don't want to manage servers" does not mean "wants serverless" — Elastic Beanstalk also eliminates server management while preserving the standard application programming model (long-running processes, persistent connections, threads, local state). Serverless imposes a specific programming model: stateless functions, cold starts, event-driven invocation, and a 15-minute execution ceiling. Route to Lambda only when the user explicitly asks for serverless or the workload is natively event-driven (e.g., S3 triggers, API Gateway request/response with no session state).

Workflow

This skill is invoked after the deploy skill selects Elastic Beanstalk as the deployment target. The deploy skill handles codebase analysis and cost estimation. This skill handles EB-specific configuration:

Map to platform - Select the EB platform branch (see platforms)
Configure - Environment type (web server or worker), instance size, scaling
Generate - AWS CLI commands, CDK, or Terraform (see IaC section below)
Deploy - Execute with user confirmation

Defaults

Setting	Dev	Production
Environment type (web)	Load-balanced (min=1, max=1)	Load-balanced, Multi-AZ
Environment type (worker)	Auto Scaling group (min=1, max=1)	Auto Scaling group (min=2, max=4)
Instance	t3.small	t3.medium or larger
Deployments	All-at-once	Rolling with additional batch
Health reporting	Enhanced	Enhanced
Managed updates	Enabled (weekly)	Enabled (maintenance window)
HTTPS (web only)	ACM certificate + ALB	ACM certificate + ALB

Default to dev unless user says "production" or "prod".

Always use load-balanced environments for web server types. This ensures instances stay in private subnets behind an ALB, HTTPS terminates via ACM automatically, and scaling up later is a config change rather than an environment type migration. Dev deployments with min=max=1 cause brief downtime on deploy (single instance, all-at-once). If zero-downtime dev is needed, use min=1 max=2 with rolling.

Worker environments do not have load balancers — they receive work from SQS and are scaled via Auto Scaling group settings.

Environment Types

Signal in Codebase	Environment Type
HTTP listener, web framework, API routes	Web server
Queue-based consumer, SQS processing, no HTTP serving	Worker
HTTP serving + queue-based background processing	Web server + separate Worker environment

Worker environments receive work via an SQS queue managed by Elastic Beanstalk. EB's SQS daemon sends HTTP POST requests to the application at a configurable path (default: POST /). The application must expose this HTTP endpoint to process each message — no SQS SDK integration required.

Worker environments also support periodic tasks via cron.yaml for scheduled jobs (alternative to EventBridge + Lambda when the user is already using EB).

If the app uses in-process background threads or async tasks (not queue-based), a single web server environment is sufficient — do not create a separate Worker.

IaC Generation

Default: AWS CLI — no extra tooling to install. The agent orchestrates the multi-step workflow:

aws elasticbeanstalk create-storage-location → returns the S3 bucket (idempotent — returns existing bucket if already created)
aws elasticbeanstalk create-application
Zip source bundle, upload to the bucket from step 1
aws elasticbeanstalk create-application-version
aws elasticbeanstalk create-environment with --option-settings (web: --tier Name=WebServer,Type=Standard, worker: --tier Name=Worker,Type=SQS/HTTP)
aws elasticbeanstalk wait environment-updated
Subsequent deploys: new version + update-environment

Resolve the --solution-stack-name by running aws elasticbeanstalk list-available-solution-stacks and filtering for the detected platform (e.g., ".NET" + "Amazon Linux 2023"). Alternatively, use --platform-arn from aws elasticbeanstalk list-platform-versions.

Use .ebextensions/ and platform hooks for customization.

See AWS CLI EB reference for full command documentation.

Override: CDK (TypeScript) when the user has an existing CDK project, wants repeatable IaC, or explicitly requests it:

CfnApplication, CfnEnvironment, CfnConfigurationTemplate

Override: Terraform when the user's repo already has Terraform:

aws_elastic_beanstalk_application, aws_elastic_beanstalk_environment

CDK and Terraform templates are scannable by cfn-nag/checkov pre-deploy.

Security

Apply these automatically:

Web server instances in private subnets behind ALB
Worker instances in private subnets with NAT Gateway for outbound
HTTPS via ACM certificate on ALB (web server environments)
IAM instance profile with least-privilege permissions — scan source code for AWS SDK client usage to determine required actions (e.g., AmazonBedrockRuntimeClient → bedrock:InvokeModel, AmazonS3Client → s3:GetObject/s3:PutObject on specific buckets)
Enhanced health reporting enabled
Managed platform updates enabled
Security groups: ALB accepts 443, instances accept only from ALB

See the deploy skill's security defaults for encryption, VPC placement, and IAM patterns.

Cost

Elastic Beanstalk has no service fee. Cost = underlying AWS resources. Query the awspricing MCP server for region-accurate estimates. Approximate us-east-1 pricing:

Configuration	Estimated Monthly Cost
Dev web (1x t3.small + ALB)	~$35-40
Dev worker (1x t3.small, no ALB)	~$15-20
Production web (4x t3.medium + ALB, Multi-AZ)	~$150-200

Add RDS/Aurora costs separately if database is included.

## Workflow

This skill is invoked after the deploy skill selects Elastic Beanstalk as the
deployment target. The deploy skill handles codebase analysis and cost estimation.
This skill handles EB-specific configuration:

1. **Map to platform** - Select the EB platform branch (see [platforms](references/platforms.md))
2. **Configure** - Environment type (web server or worker), instance size, scaling
3. **Generate** - AWS CLI commands, CDK, or Terraform (see IaC section below)
4. **Deploy** - Execute with user confirmation

## Defaults

| HTTPS (web only)          | ACM certificate + ALB             | ACM certificate + ALB             |

Default to **dev** unless user says "production" or "prod".

Always use load-balanced environments for web server types. This ensures
instances stay in private subnets behind an ALB, HTTPS terminates via ACM
automatically, and scaling up later is a config change rather than an environment
type migration. Dev deployments with min=max=1 cause brief downtime on deploy
(single instance, all-at-once). If zero-downtime dev is needed, use min=1 max=2
with rolling.

Worker environments do not have load balancers — they receive work from SQS and
are scaled via Auto Scaling group settings.

## Environment Types

| ----------------------------------------------------- | ---------------------------------------- |
| HTTP listener, web framework, API routes              | Web server                               |
| Queue-based consumer, SQS processing, no HTTP serving | Worker                                   |
| HTTP serving + queue-based background processing      | Web server + separate Worker environment |

Worker environments receive work via an SQS queue managed by Elastic Beanstalk.
EB's SQS daemon sends HTTP POST requests to the application at a configurable
path (default: `POST /`). The application must expose this HTTP endpoint to
process each message — no SQS SDK integration required.

Worker environments also support periodic tasks via `cron.yaml` for scheduled
jobs (alternative to EventBridge + Lambda when the user is already using EB).

If the app uses in-process background threads or async tasks (not queue-based),
a single web server environment is sufficient — do not create a separate Worker.
