Would AWS Elastic Beanstalk fit that <10 services profile?
- pnathan 7y agoyes, it would. Costs start really getting heavy with EB at a certain point, since you're spinning up 1+ ASG & LB per service (a tier is an ASG and a LB, possibly a DB). I wouldn't build a microservice architecture against EB, at _all_. I'd say EB probably is cost effective up to, IDK, maybe 3 services with 3 nodes per ASG. Then you're breaking even or worse with k8s ops cost, and now you're looking at "how much time (= money) is it to manage k8s with KOPS" vs "how much are we spending on EB". KOPS is a very low-effort solution once you get it rolling.
