There is no difference in meaning. " It's " is the contraction form of " it is." It's = it is.

Like Matt says, they have the same meaning with "it's" just the abbreviated or contracted form of "it is". In conversation you will almost always hear "it's" rather than "it is". We prefer to speak faster and saying "it's" instead of "it is" is one way way of doing this. In fact, saying "it is" sounds a little unnatural in conversation in most cases.
