Amazon Elastic Container Service Reviews Summary
Author infoRatingReview Summary
Lead Developer at Virtual Restaurant Solutions3.5Amazon Elastic Container Service helped me learn Linux, SSH, and cloud deployment affordably, but it has resource limitations, a steep learning curve, and scalability issues, so I eventually switched to DreamHost for better flexibility and lower costs.
Chief Technology Officer at Looplex SA5.0We use Amazon Elastic Container Service to host legal workloads, benefiting from its ease of horizontal scaling and cost reduction via Fargate. However, scaling challenges arise since monitoring CPU and memory usage simultaneously isn't possible, impacting balanced automation.
General Manager at Vodafone Idea Ltd.5.0We resell Amazon Elastic Container Service, which offers valuable scalability and minimal manageability, but it is costly and lacks full support for AI services like LLMs and genomics in our region. Deployment is on Amazon Web Services.
AWS Cloud and DevOps Consultant | Solutions Architect at Devoteam Management Consulting4.0As a cloud consultant specializing in AWS at Devoteam, I find Amazon ECS valuable due to its integration with AWS services and effective auto-scaling. However, improvements are needed in the user interface, auto-scaling reactivity, and implementing end-to-end encryption.
Senior Enterprise Architect at DV Consulting4.0We transitioned our on-site environment to Amazon EC2 Container Service, benefiting from its flexibility and pay-as-you-go model. It's cost-effective if optimized, though improvements in hardware selection options could enhance user experience. The cloud setup is efficient and resource-sensitive.
Senior Systems Engineer at Mycom Osi4.0My company uses Amazon EC2 Container Service for telecommunication network management, valuing its scalability. However, its pricing and upgradability need improvement. Despite some ROI, we are considering moving to Amazon EKS or exploring OpenShift for better upgradability.
Data Analyst and Developer at Bridge Labs4.5I use Amazon Elastic Container Service for various tasks like Jenkins web server and CloudFormation. Its valuable features include significant storage volume options and numerous AMI IDs. However, it lacks clarity, making setup costly for inexperienced users.
Senior Software Engineer at Capgemini4.0I used Amazon Elastic Container Service to deploy a web application for a proof of concept on AWS. It provided significant stability and cost savings compared to EC2, though the initial setup was challenging due to the required experience.
