You have to rewrite all non-existent URLs to a script. On Apache you can make it adding these rules to .htaccess file in your www root.

<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^([0-9]+)$ /index.php?id=$1 [L]
</IfModule>

Put this in you .htaccess file

<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
    RewriteEngine on

    RewriteRule ^([0-9]+)$ index.php?id=$1 [NC,L]
</IfModule>

It should do what you want, I didn't use elastic-beanstalk before, hopes I can help you.
