Overall Satisfaction with Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (EC2)
EC2 is used by us for the majority of our servers. We use it to support cloud-based applications that run on servers. EC2 substitutes having to run servers locally in our datacenters. EC2 is just as basic virtual machine system that allows us to customize them in any way we want and add whatever software we need.
- Easy to start and stop
- Well priced
- Completely customizable
- Difficulty identifying exactly what type of instance you want/need
- Networking can be confusing
- Poor UI
- It can be very easy to overspend and forget about running instances.
- It can also be very easy to overspend by making instances too large.
- The speed of deployment has been a huge improvement.
