Docker is one of the options in EB!

(Next to e.g. Python)

Single-container Deploys

• Dockerfile -> (build) -> image
• One instance, one container
• Beanstalk can do this for us
• Not ideal for multi-tier envs
  • e.g. web layer, app layer, db layer

• Several containers can run on same instances
• Separate containers for db, webapp, api
• Docker run file is mandatory for multi-container
