Overall Satisfaction with Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (EC2)

Amazon EC2 helps add flexibility, versatility, security and is easily scalable. We use it for a few web applications internally and have enjoyed using the compute engine offered by Amazon. To add it to its pro's it also supports all the programming languages we utilize and more in case a developer would like to use another language.
  • Very easy to use and spin up services and/or instances.
  • Quick and trivial setup for hosting code or using computing power.
  • Cost effective for sure.
  • Auto scaling is fantastic.
  • So far there is nothing missing in this product offering that I can think of.
  • With all the features it offers, the ROI is fantastic and easily is a good investment for any firm no matter the size.
If you have data to process then this cost effective solution is the way to go for sure. It's a solid powered work engine and can handle anything you throw at it(depending on the instance.) Plus, its on-demand characteristic saves you a lot of money, in terms of not only on-demand usage, but also avoids hardware costs, or rather, idle hardware costs.
