Guide: Understanding Application Versions in AWS Elastic Beanstalk
What is it?
In AWS Elastic Beanstalk, application versions refer to iterations of deployable code. Each application version is associated with a specific AWS Elastic Beanstalk application and you can maintain and manage different versions.
Why is it important?
Understanding Application Versions is important as it allows you to handle updates and changes in your applications resulting in reducing development and deployment efforts. It enables you to roll back to older versions if the new version introduces a bug or error.
How it works?
When you create an application version in the Elastic Beanstalk environment, you can specify the source bundle, a .zip or WAR file that contains your application's source code. Each application version points to an Amazon S3 object that contains the deployment package.
Exam Tips: Answering Questions on Application Versions
When answering questions regarding Application Versions in an exam, remember that each version is unique and can be used to deploy the same application across different environments. Remember, Elastic Beanstalk retains information about the application versions but doesn't store the actual source bundles; they are stored in Amazon S3. Understanding of the lifecycle policy of application versions could be critical for the questions in exams.

Application Versions practice test
Application versions are archives comprising of source codes, dependencies, configuration files, and other components necessary for deploying an application in Elastic Beanstalk. They serve as a snapshot of the app’s state, making it easy to track, manage, and switch between multiple versions. Thanks to application versions, a developer can quickly roll back to a previous version, easing out the deployment process. Elastic Beanstalk stores and manages these versions in the Amazon S3 bucket, making it easier to manage multiple versions of a single application.
