Docker and shiny: Server or standalone

Hi there

I'm looking at taking a shiny app and running it (probably on Elastic Beanstalk) using docker containers.

Some example Dockerfiles run the app directly with shiny::runApp and some run shiny server itself.

I was just wondering what the pros and cons are of either approach?

This blog post gives a very nice explanation
