AWS Batch
I would only recommend using AWS Batch in a situation where using AWS Lambda isn't an option with the organization. AWS Batch is a very slow software in comparison to relying on. Often your Batch data will keep on expiring while Batch is still running. For someone with quick response time requirements in automation, AWS Batch is not an ideal tool.

It was very good to use in small scale projects. Considering the high end projects with many instances and multi-platform architectures, it is better to test before the application is deployed. I think few of the questions can be general - who are the system users and what size is the application focussing on? How much resources are required? Will the application require any additional services?

- Quick deployment of pre-built virtual machines
- Some of the virtual machines also are readily available with a pack of softwares
- Good Stability. Using it as a student, I have never experienced any downtime issues with the projects deployed on AppFog.

- Though it is good and easy for developers, it lacks operational activities and monitoring tools.
- It is easy to deploy WAR on AppFog with its console but sometimes it can lack on the performance and feasibility.

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

Primarily because it used to have a good free tier earlier, which it does not anymore. It's simple, and things are available to use. Compared to it's competitors, it does has less features, but that kind of acts in its favor. That adds to the simplicity, and ease of use for a new user.
