We have multiple scraping jobs written and this needs to be managed, we were facing difficulty to run, then we moved to AWS Batch where we are running multiple jobs very easily and efficiently, so mainly we are using AWS for cost saving and optimisation, We are running 100s of jobs currently
  • Fully Managed service
  • We can use other AWS services, it is well integrated
  • Cheaper
  • Best resource utilisation
  • 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
Overall experience using AWS Batch is good, our day to day tasks are full-filling using AWS Batch, we have migrated our all the in premises job and we are able to run more than 100 jobs using AWS Batch with efficiency, It is easy to use, Monitoring of the jobs i am finding little difficulty

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
I would advise that to use AWS Batch if there is no other alternative. It delivers on its promise and is a great product and there is the factor of cost. I would suggest none other AWS Lamba or other alternatives in the market as it is quite slow from my experience.

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.
Easy to configure task queues and queue tasks that require async execution with AWS client for PHP. Good logs on AWS CloudWatch where you can log output and errors of the task execution.

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.
AWS Batch is perfect in EC2 instances as you'll easily automate the jobs in your hosted private servers. Not good in Lightsail since it is a standalone server, you have to automate on the server itself instead of using AWS Batch.

AWS S3 has great value!

Score 8 out of 10

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.
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.

AWS Batch is used for making smart scaling decisions by running multiple jobs. It is being used to automate and build various jobs from different resources across various departments. 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
Start with reviewing all your jobs, consolidating the timeline, and making a plan on what all jobs need to be prioritized. These can be optimized based on cost and performance. With a continuously changing workload, AWS Batch helps to build and automate the jobs across various resources. It also helps to manage the performance and workload.
