This pattern describes how to migrate an on-premises Go web application to AWS Elastic Beanstalk. After the application is migrated, Elastic Beanstalk builds the binary for the source bundle and deploys it to an Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (Amazon EC2) instance.
As a rehost migration strategy, this pattern’s approach is fast and requires no code changes, which means less testing and migration time.
Prerequisites
