I owned a service running on EB that did 100QPS stable, 5K QPS weekly peak (with reasonably linear traffic increases) ~5 years ago. I'd still recommend it, but we hit some arbitrary limits / found leaky abstractions that took a lot of time to work around. Overall, I'd much rather own a EB app (or any other PAAS, or Kubernetes) than a tangled nest of bash scripts, JIRA tickets and tribal knownledge.
