*Easy to begin and impossible to outgrow, Elastic Beanstalk enables developers to deploy applications to AWS in minutes without giving up the ability to take back control of the underlying resources*

SEATTLE, Jan 19, 2011 (BUSINESS WIRE) — Amazon Web Services LLC, an Amazon.com company, today announced AWS Elastic Beanstalk, an even easier way for developers to quickly deploy and manage applications in the AWS cloud. Developers simply upload their application, and Elastic Beanstalk automatically handles the deployment details of capacity provisioning, load balancing, auto-scaling, and application health monitoring. At the same time, with Elastic Beanstalk, developers retain full control over the AWS resources powering their application and can access the underlying resources at any time. There is no additional charge for Elastic Beanstalk – customers pay only for the AWS resources needed to run their applications. The first release of Elastic Beanstalk is built for Java developers using the familiar Apache Tomcat software stack, which ensures easy portability if developers ever want to move their applications.
