User Testimonials
	Astro by Astronomer	AWS Batch
Likelihood to Recommend	Astronomer, Inc. Astronomer is well suited for workflow and dependency management for enterprise-level data lakes. It is not a product for data processing though. Different source systems can be integrated, it also provides powerful interfaces for alerting and monitoring. Easy to build DAGs, graphical UI, API support makes the product more user-friendly as well. Astronomer also does a great job on user training. Incentivized Uddipan Mukherjee Big Data Specialist Read full review	Amazon AWS More appropriate if you have a tech group that can use more of the AWS Batch rather than one or 2 things. It works great for me, but there was a huge learning curve the first week of using it. Now, I love it - and I hope to dig deep into other parts not just S3.

Pros	Astronomer, Inc. Workflow management Wide availability of plugins Dependency management on upstream Incentivized Uddipan Mukherjee Big Data Specialist Read full review	Amazon AWS S3 amount of files Easy to share files to other sites Like that the files and folders can be open and public or completely private I like that you can have double or mirroring in different Data Centers for Data Recovery Incentivized MD Michelle Duffy Owner Read full review
