Given my difficulties [deploying Julia with AWS Lambda](https://discourse.julialang.org/t/creating-a-custom-julia-aws-layer-runtime/18166/13), I’m trying to deploy on Elastic Beanstalk. From what I understand, there appears to be two options for deployment:

1. Create a custom image using Packer.
2. Create a custom AMI somehow

However, I’m having a difficult time with either of these options. Has anyone in the community accomplished this?

Ended up just deploying a Docker image. I thought this wasn’t possible, because I couldn’t get any basic REST server working in a docker container. However, this ended up being because I was hosting on `127.0.0.1` instead of `0.0.0.0`. There are very important differences between those two addresses!
