Cloud Nine with Amazon EC2

Likeliness to Recommend

9 /10

What differentiates Amazon EC2 from other similar products?

As someone who works on multi-cloud environments, I can say that AWS cloud provides quick deployment of services. Launching a server on this cloud is faster than other cloud providers. AWS has plenty of documents available for the cloud services, apart from the official documentation.

What is your favorite aspect of this product?

Their platform is perfect for startup cloud services since it offers a free tier for one year and pay-as-you-go pricing. The platform provides low latency IP Addresses and DNS servers, which ensures strong connectivity and availability over the internet. Amazon offers many interesting features like disk management, cloud backup, cloud snapshots, and data snapshots.

What do you dislike most about this product?

Sometimes, the new dashboard with new features stucks in the middle when opened with Firefox web browser. Also, The price of AWS is higher than a standard server,

What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?

The Amazon EC2 has higher bandwidth and is easy to connect to. We can connect to the instances in a short time and have many options to choose the right instance as required, limited to unlimited storage options.

Pros

  • Helps Innovate
  • Continually Improving Product
  • Reliable
  • Enables Productivity
