Elastic Beanstalk Quiz
You work for a large company having multiple applications which are very different from each other. These are built using different programming languages. How can you deploy these applications as quickly as possible?
A. Develop each app in one Docker container and deploy using Elastic Beanstalk.
B. Create a Lambda function deployment package consisting of code and any dependencies.
C. Develop each app in a separate Docker container and deploy using Elastic Beanstalk.
D. Develop each app in separate Docker containers and deploy using CloudFormation.
C. Develop each app in a separate Docker container and deploy using Elastic Beanstalk.
Elastic Beanstalk supports the deployment of web applications from Docker containers. With Docker containers, you can define your own runtime environment. You can choose your own platform, programming language, and any application dependencies (such as package managers or tools), that aren’t supported by other platforms. Docker containers are self-contained and include all the configuration information and software your web application requires to run.
Option A is not suitable here, because the requirement is to deploy multiple app with different languages & very different from each other.
Option B is ideally used for running code and not packaging the applications and dependencies.
Option D – Deploying Docker containers using CloudFormation is also not an ideal choice.
