When creating a source bundle for a .NET application in Elastic Beanstalk, what naming convention must the site name follow?

1. It must start with 'Default Site'

2. It must start with 'Default Web App'

3. It must start with 'Default Web Site'

4. It must start with 'Default Application'

The correct answer is: It must start with 'Default Web Site'

The correct naming convention for a site name when creating a source bundle for a .NET application in Elastic Beanstalk is that it must start with 'Default Web Site'. This convention aligns with Microsoft's naming standards for web applications, where 'Default Web Site' is typically used in Internet Information Services (IIS) environments, which .NET applications often utilize. Using 'Default Web Site' ensures that the settings and configurations for the application are properly recognized by Elastic Beanstalk, as the platform is designed to integrate seamlessly with IIS. Adhering to this naming convention also helps in managing and deploying the application effectively, especially when scaling or integrating with additional services. Other naming conventions, while they may seem plausible, do not correctly reflect the standard practices associated with .NET applications within Elastic Beanstalk, thereby leading to potential misconfigurations or issues during deployment.
