AWS EB a versatile and agile environment for public cloud application delivery
Overall Satisfaction with AWS Elastic Beanstalk
For our company the implementation of AWS Elastic Beanstalk was used first for the application development area and then for the operations intelligence team, at the moment the IT areas only have access and use of this platform. Due to the nature of the cloud-based platform and as a service, the problems that were overcome were the delay in the delivery of applications and the infrastructure where they are executed and the control of the company's development processes.
- AWS Elastic Beanstalk was easy to implement, we only had to insert the application code to have it up and running in a few minutes. This helps us to launch company campaigns for different areas such as marketing, commercial and human resources.
- It has a fast learning curve, since the training material of the platform is public on the manufacturer's portal, furthermore it is easy to interact and intuitive for developers.
- The productivity of the equipment is optimized since they are not worrying about preparing the platform or infrastructure, they only have to attend to what is required by the application and its operation and this maintenance.
- The indicators and metrics that it has, ensure that the application cannot be saturated and have a performance problem, with AWS Elastic Beanstalk the application can scale resources when needed automatically.
- By having it as software as a service, we do not have all the government of the information to which the application codes are uploaded.
- It requires the intervention of an administrator for its management, even the routine maintenance of the platform is not very automated and requires the intervention of operating personnel.
- Its ecosystem and integration with third party software is not yet enriched, it is complex to manage if the AWS EB application is required to be integrated with another service in order to operate.
- Easy and agile deployment, by having only the application team occupied during this brief moment, the operating costs reduce in a positive way
- The scalability of the platform has helped us to make the infrastructure layer invisible, considering the fractional consumption of AWS, only the resources used are being billed.
- For the business, it has helped to increase the productivity of the personnel since it was possible to optimize the operation and traditional management tasks towards a cloud-based environment such as AWS.
AWS EB positioned itself ahead of its competitors for the flexibility of being as a service and being part of AWS, for the functional part it presented a better automation, maintenance control and flexibility to scale the capabilities of the application.
The convergence to operate with Chef or Jenkins instances is super simple and the AWS API simply works very well.
