Discussion

We have a Node.js application providing REST and/or GraphQL APIs, which is part of the microservices architecture. What are the possible ways to deploy the application to AWS?

And what's the pros and cons for each approach?

Elastic BeanStalk

AWS Elastic Beanstalk is a Platform as a Service (PaaS) that makes it easy to deploy, manage, and scale web applications and services. It automatically handles the deployment, from capacity provisioning, load balancing, and auto-scaling to application health monitoring.

Pros:

  • Ease of Use: Simplifies deployment and management, ideal for those less familiar with AWS infrastructure.
  • Managed Service: Handles the underlying infrastructure, including servers, load balancers, and scaling.
  • Integration: Well-integrated with other AWS services.

Cons:

  • Limited Control: Less granular control over the underlying infrastructure compared to managing your own instances.
  • Cost: Can be more expensive than manually managing instances, depending on your application’s requirements and usage.

Use Case: Best for developers looking for a quick and easy way to deploy and manage applications without deep knowledge of AWS infrastructure.
