Good for running multiple jobs
We had to use AWS Batch for multiple jobs. As it is fully managed it will save you a lot of work. If you are working with AWS services like EC2, it integrates seamlessly. Also creating the cluster is difficult.
- Easy to share files
- Automate jobs
- Ease of scalability
- Very little documentation on AWS Batch
- It takes up a lot of time to load

AWS Batch
We need to not manage the machines, very easy to use, great dashboard, fully supported SDK for programmatic access. We were short of resources, so we used batch which helped with no need of monitoring underlying infrastructure.
- No need to manage underlying infrastructure.
- Easy Dashboard for monitoring jobs.
- Great SDK, programmatic access.
- Dashboard does not have search, filters.
- We cannot configure machine allocation.
- Jobs history is very limited.

AWS Batch Automation Review
Previously supported this on my previous job along with users integrating with 3rd party firewall in the AWS marketplace. Integration with AWS services is top-notch because of how it simplifies automation and batch jobs.
- Since this is in AWS, integration with EC2 instances along with other AWS services is very simple.
- Insufficient documentation and training materials.

Cost Effective but Sloww
Autoscaling tasks for processing big data queries. AWS Batch was among the few reliable options available in the market to address the incremental data size. We were earlier trying to manage autoscaling in S3 buckets in AWS Lambda but the size was always an issue. AWS Batch is slow but steady.

AWS S3 has great value!
Currently using S3 for storage and adding direct links to these files for Members Area website to view videos and download PDF worksheets. The price is economical for the type and number of files I have and the program I use for my Membership website does not allow to store the videos there directly.
- 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
- It would be nice if the website has embedded little videos for how to do things, since I had to first go to YouTube to see how to figure things out.
- The words are very techy- which I don't mind too much considering the diversity of the apps and the value, but that does not work for a lot of regular solopreneurs who don't come from the tech world.

Automating jobs with AWS Batch

It also monitors our applications and automatically adds or removes capacity in real time. This is very helpful to maintain jobs and availability with our workload changing continuously.
- Automate jobs
- Manage performance
- Pay per use
- Provide more documentation
- Provide in-house training for better use of product
