Understanding AWS Elastic Beanstalk Architecture and CI/CD Integration with GitHub

Question

I'm trying to understand how AWS Elastic Beanstalk works and how its components interact with each other. Could someone explain how Elastic Beanstalk manages the deployment environment, including its use of EC2, S3, Load Balancers, Auto Scaling, and CloudWatch?

Additionally, I’d like to know how CI/CD integrated with Elastic Beanstalk using GitHub. Specifically, how does the pipeline automate the deployment process, and what role do services like CodeBuild and CodePipeline play in this integration?

The following diagram shows an example Elastic Beanstalk architecture for a web server environment tier, and shows how the components in that type of environment tier work together.
