Overall Satisfaction with Amazon Web Services
We use Amazon Web Services as a cloud service provider for most of our IT requirements. The ease to set up and run an application on AWS has made it our go-to choice. It helps avoid the hassle of setting up and managing infrastructure and lets us focus on our application quality. We leverage S3, EC2 , Elastic BeanStalk, Lambda, CodePipeline, CloudWatch and a lot of other AWS components regularly for our application development and deployment.
- Easy to use even for beginners.
- Free tier for 1 year with access to most offerings.
- Pay only what you use model.
- Helpful & quick real-time support.
- Highly reliable and fault tolerant.
- Due to the various services provided, it can become a maze for beginners.
- If not monitored and managed carefully, huge bill can pile up.
- For larger scale applications using AWS becomes expensive, better to go for on-premise servers.
- It has helped us deliver applications faster and to a much more global audience.
- Elastic Load Balancer and Auto-Scaling Group has helped us manage the peak application usage hours, and help eliminate downtime.
- It has helped us in monitoring our application more efficiently.
The broad range of services offered by Amazon Web Services clearly makes it a better choice vs competitors like Google Cloud Platform. It also has a more global footprint due to availability across more regions and zones. However if cost effectiveness is the key parameter, Google's cloud offering takes the crown.
