You can select a Windows or Linux operating system, and you can complete server installation in a few minutes. You can log into the server securely using a pair of keys. Adjustable to raise or decrease server power. The server can be installed in a simple process and capability can be flexibly scaled. After registering a single account, you can access it directly by logging in.

What do you dislike most about this product?

AWS expertise is necessary to use different features and resources effectively. If you do not have a trained engineer, you can consider using support services.

What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?

The server can be mounted quickly and cost-effectively, and its capacity can be expanded or decreased flexibly. It is easy to use for a range of pricing plans and protection is great. In addition to the Amazon brand success that is expanding around the globe, we still have a high proportion of cloud providers both in India and around the world. Not only English, European, Arabic, and Asian languages are allowed. The protocol to install a server is straightforward: first, log in to AWS and pick the type of instance (web server type) and template required. You can use an easy-to-use template, such as a Windows-based or Linux-based templates
