Answer 1

The EB command line interface has an eb stop command. Here is a little bit about what the command actually does:

The eb stop command deletes the AWS resources that are running your application (such as the ELB and the EC2 instances). It however leaves behind all of the application versions and configuration settings that you had deployed, so you can quickly get started again. Eb stop is ideal when you are developing and testing your application and don’t need the AWS resources running over night. You can get going again by simply running eb start.

EDIT:

As stated in the below comment, this is no longer a command in the new eb-cli.
