DEPLOY SPRING BOOT APPLICATION ON AWS ELASTIC BEANSTALK

AWS Elastic Beanstalk is a fully managed service that makes it easy to deploy,
run, and scale web applications and services in the AWS Cloud. When deploying
Spring Boot applications, AWS Elastic Beanstalk is an excellent choice as it
provides a simple and cost-effective way to run and scale Java web applications
without worrying about the underlying infrastructure.
The Elastic Beanstalk service is fully integrated with the Spring Boot
framework, which allows you to deploy Spring Boot applications with minimal
configuration easily.
SPRING BOOT APPLICATION WE ARE GOING TO DEPLOY
Here, I’ve developed minimal REST API with Spring Boot, Java 17, JPA, and H2
In-memory database. You can clone it from this repository.
This API has a single endpoint where it reads the countries list from the H2
database and is exposed with the following URL.
or else feel free to use any spring boot application to that you have access.
DEPLOYMENT FLOW
Let’s start the deployment of our Spring Boot application on AWS elastic
beanstalk and expose that through public URL.
USING ELASTIC BEANSTALK CLI
In this tutorial, I’m going to use Elastic Beanstalk CLI which allows us to
simply access the elastic beanstalk product on AWS and create any kind of
environment we like.
Also there is another way we can use AWS dashboard to achieve the same target.
You can refer this official document in order to setup EB CLI on your
development machine.
SETTING UP APPLICATION ON ELASTIC BEANSTALK
First we should create a new application and deployment environment on elastic
beanstalk. We can achieve that with executing following command on project root.
$ eb init
then choose preferred AWS region and application name to create the deployment
environment.
Here I’ve used us-west-2 : US West (Oregon) for demonstration purposes.
Initializing Elastic Beanstalk Environment to Deploy Spring Boot Application
After completing this step you should asked to choose the platform, Here it
should be Java and choose the java version which matches with your application,
For me it is Java – Corretto 17 running on 64bit Amazon Linux 2.
Selecting platform and deployment version
Finally there will be asked to setup CodeCommit and setup SSH access to the EC2
instances that this setup will creates. But for the moment I’m not going to
setup those.
Code commit and SSH access setup elastic beanstalk
So now we should have elastic beanstalk config.yml created on project root with
config as below.
Project structure after creating EB configuration
branch-defaults:
main:
environment: null
global:
application_name: spring-boot-elastic-beanstalk
branch: null
default_ec2_keyname: null
default_platform: Corretto 17 running on 64bit Amazon Linux 2
default_region: us-west-2
include_git_submodules: true
instance_profile: null
platform_name: null
platform_version: null
profile: null
repository: null
sc: git
workspace_type: Application
CONFIGURE JAR FILE FOR ELASTIC BEANSTALK DEPLOYMENT
By default, EB CLI use git history and create zip file to with latest
application code when deploying. But that will not work with spring boot
application since it should be deploy using JAR file build on application build
folders.
We need to show that specific JAR build in order to deploy on elastic beanstalk.
We can achieve that with adding following into the .elasticbeanstalk/config.yml.
Here I’m using Gradle for application build, it creates the application JAR
build on /build/libs/ folder on project root.
deploy:
artifact: build/libs/spring-boot-elastic-beanstalk-0.0.1-SNAPSHOT.jar
SETTING UP DEPLOYOMENT ENVIRONMENT AND PROCESS INITIAL DEPLOYMENT
Now, we can deploy our JAR build on EB environment, with following command,
$ eb create
choose environment name, DNS name prefix which will used to expose our API with
domain name and load balancer type.
Here I’ve used application load balancer and skipped creating spot instance
fleet.
Elastic Beanstalk Environment Creation
Here you should see EB CLI started to deploy your JAR built on AWS, and it
should be started to upload with above command.

SETTING APPLICATION PORTS TO EXPOSE WITH PUBLIC URL
Since we are using default port with spring boot application, It runs on port
8080. But elastic beanstalk uses nginx internally and it routes public domain
entry into port 5000. Hence we have to setup our application to run with port
5000 with following command.
$ eb setenv SERVER_PORT=5000
Now our deployment should be done, and we could access our API through the
public URL published on the elastic beanstalk dashboard.
Environments on Elastic Beanstalk Dashboard
Access the API using public URL and /api/v1/countries and it should return
following JSON reponse.
BENEFITS OF USING ELASTIC BEANSTALK
One of the key benefits of using AWS Elastic Beanstalk for Spring Boot
applications is that it abstracts away the underlying infrastructure so you
don’t have to worry about provisioning and managing servers.
EC2 Instances created automatically on Elastic Beanstalk Environment Setup.
The service automatically provisions and scales the infrastructure to match the
number of requests and the amount of traffic your application receives, taking
care of all the underlying infrastructure for you. This allows you to focus on
developing and deploying your application without worrying about the operational
aspect of running it. Additionally, with the simple and cost-effective pricing
model, it’s a great option for deploying and running Spring Boot applications on
the cloud.
Auto Scaling Groups created automatically Load balancers provisioned on
environment creation automatically
CONCLUSIONS
In this article we have discussed how we can deploy a spring boot application on
AWS elastic beanstalk on a practical scenario.
The implementation of all these examples and code snippets can be found in our
Github repository.
Happy coding.
