AWS Fargate vs Apache NiFi comparison

"We can integrate the tool with other applications easily."

"It's an automated flow, where you can build a flow from source to destination, then do the transformation in between."

"The user interface is good and makes it easy to design very popular workflows."

"It is highly effective for handling real-time data by working with APIs for immediate and continuous data extraction."

"The most valuable features of this solution are ease of use and implementation."

"Visually, this is a good product."

"The initial setup is very easy. I would rate my experience with the initial setup a ten out of ten, where one point is difficult, and ten points are easy."

"Apache NiFi is user-friendly. Its most valuable features for handling large volumes of data include its multitude of integrated endpoints and clients and the ability to create cron jobs to run tasks at regular intervals."

"Fargate's integration with other AWS services is really good."

"AWS Fargate has many valuable services. It does the job with minimal trouble. It's very observable. You can see what's going on and you have logs. You have everything. You can troubleshoot it. It's affordable and it's flexible."

"AWS Fargate is a fully managed service, and it's very easy to use compared to other services like Elastic Beanstalk Service (EBS)."

"Fargate itself is a stable product. We are quite satisfied with its performance."

"We appreciate the simple use of containers within this solution, it makes managing the containers quick and easy."

"I like their containerization service. You can use Docker or something similar and deploy quickly without the know-how related to, for example, Kubernetes. If you use AKS or Kubernetes, then you have to have the know-how. But for Fargate, you don't need to have the know-how there. You just deploy the container or the image, and then you have the container, and you can use it as AWS takes care of the rest. This makes it easier for those getting started or if you don't have a strong DevOps team inside your organization."

"All AWS services allow me to manage a wide range of applications and services."

"The most valuable feature of AWS Fargate is its ease of use."

"There is room for improvement in integration with SSO. For example, NiFi does not have any integration with SSO. And if I want to give some kind of rollback access control across the organization. That is not possible."

"The overall stability of this solution could be improved. In a future release, we would like to have access to more features that could be used in a parallel way. This would provide more freedom with processing."

"There are some claims that NiFi is cloud-native but we have tested it, and it's not."

"The tool should incorporate more tutorials for advanced use cases. It has tutorials for simple use cases."

"More features must be added to the product."

"The quality of JSON data processing could be improved, as JSON workloads require manual conversions without a specific process."

"I think the UI interface needs to be more user-friendly."

"The use case templates could be more precise to typical business needs."

"I heard from my team that it's not easy to predict the cost. That is the only issue we have with AWS Fargate, but I think that's acceptable. AWS Fargate isn't user-friendly. Anything related to Software as a Service or microservice architecture is not easy to implement. You're required to have DevOps from your side to implement the solution. AWS Fargate is just a temporary solution for us. When we grow to a certain level, we may use AKS for better control."

"There are features that could be added or enhanced."

"If there are any options to manage containers, that would be good. That relates more to the cost point. For example, over the next three months, I'll be making a comparison between solutions like CAST AI and other software-as-a-service platforms that offer Kubernetes management with an emphasis on cost reduction."

"I would like to see enhanced faster application scaling and better integration with the elastic file system to unify storage volumes and improve the launch time of instances."

"As I have not worked with Fargate extensively, I do not have any specific improvements."

"Sometimes, Fargate can be really hard to configure."

"Service computing is not as straightforward compared to other computing services. It requires more effort to use effectively."

"AWS Fargate could improve the privileged mode containers. We had some problems and they were not able to run."

"I used the tool's free version."

"We use the free version of Apache NiFi."

"It's an open-source solution."

"The solution is open-source."

"I rate the price of AWS Fargate a four out of five."

"We would advise that this solution has a slightly-higher price point than others on the market. There is a free plan available for start-ups, but the free and lower range licensing models do not provide the full functionality."
