AWS Batch vs. Azure Automation

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.

We have found Azure Automation to be well-suited for tasks that must be performed on a scheduled basis. No matter how simple or tedious tasks are to perform manually, if they run on a scheduled basis, it makes sense to have them automated. If the tasks at hand are only performed once or infrequently, then it may be best to continue performing them manually.

• Easy to orchestrate and trigger jobs
• No time limit issues like lambda
• Multiple Jobs can be run in same single compute and job queue
• JOb queue can queue up task for parralled or serialization

Incentivized

• Scheduled automation of Microsoft 365 and Azure tasks
• Scheduled automation of scripting (e.g. Powershell)
• Perform periodic maintenance

Incentivized

• Jobs monitoring dashboards are not matured
• Documentation and support is something which can be improved
• Sometime i faced the slow response or slow in performance i would say

Incentivized

• An automation template library would be nice
• Clear estimation of costs - this goes for the entire Azure Automation platform
• It can be daunting at first due to all the settings and menu levels, but it is not difficult once you get started.

Key advantages include cost-effectiveness through dynamic resource provisioning and the use of spot instances. It auto-scales to meet workload demands, allowing easy job submission via the AWS Management Console or SDKs. It integrates seamlessly with other services like S3 and CloudWatch. It features automatic retries for failed jobs. It allows for a custom computing environment tailored to specific needs

We wanted to start everything on a scale & with fewer resources to manage the underlying infrastructure.

We did not evaluate any other automation products since we are already using Microsoft 365 and the Azure platform. Additionally, Azure Automation allows for a reasonable number of tasks to be performed each month at no cost, which is especially nice when testing the platform. We found Azure Automate's integration of Powershell invaluable when working directly with Microsoft 365, Sharepoint, Azure AD, and other systems via API.

Incentivized

• Overall over business is able to save the cost
• Saved our times to improve the existing process
• Able to integrate with other applications as well, so that is plus point

Incentivized

• Ensures tasks are not forgotten
• Saves times - routine tasks no longer have to be performed manually
• Complicated tasks are no longer an issue
