Avis clients sur Amazon EC2

AWS EC2 is the ideal service to set up working servers

Commentaires : Amazon EC2 is the tool we use to create the server needed for data storage, big data processing and web applications. It is highly recommended in combination with other AWS services (for example Redshift, EMR, Route 53 and others) to get a solid and reliable cloud infrastructure for data management platforms.

Avantages :

A wide range of machine type is available to fit every need. EC2 clusters can be further customized (e.g. with additional storage) and networking and security are easily managed.

Inconvénients :

Amazon EC2 setup and administration is not straightforward since it requires a solid IT background.

Outstanding in terms of hosting and visual machines.

Commentaires : It's really responsive and there are variety of locations to choose from so, It's basically a best option among others considering the price we pay.

Avantages :

AWS's EC2 service is truly excellent. We'll have thousands of applications and operating systems ready to install. It's simple to use when configuring DNS or managing ports. It's incredibly straightforward, thanks to their clean UI. When we install software from the EC2 marketplace, everything is essentially pre-configured. Backup is simple with snapshots, but it will cost you money. We can choose the operating system and get an estimate of how much we'll pay. This will avoid unexpected charges.

Inconvénients :

When you stop and restart an instance on EC2, the IP address changes constantly, which makes setting up DNS records quite inconvenient. There is an elastic IP approach that will prevent such, but I believe they should supply it by default for the same cost of instance. Also, support is quite slow, and we must pay an additional fee for it.

Powerful tool not friendly at all

Avantages :

Offers a remarkable level of customization, making it a fantastic choice for tailoring your computing resources to your exact needs. With a wide variety of pre-configured operating systems available, setting up your environment is a breeze. This platform is particularly sysadmin-friendly, providing the tools and flexibility needed to manage and optimize your system efficiently. It's like having an all-in-one solution at your fingertips

Inconvénients :

The documentation provided can be somewhat lacking, which can make it challenging for users, especially newcomers, to navigate the platform effectively. Additionally, the pricing structure and advertising could benefit from more transparency and clarity to help users better understand the costs involved. Lastly, setting up monitoring can be a bit complex, and streamlining this process could make it more user-friendly. Despite these issues, EC2 still provides robust cloud computing capabilities for those willing to navigate these challenges

I was forced to leave after 6 years of happy use

Commentaires : What AWS don't tell you is that on top of your EC2 cost comes a whole range of other hidden costs. Costs that only creep up after you've been using the product for a long time. Almost as if it has been designed this way. Specifically, I ran into trouble with CPU and Disk IO credits. This is not a thing on any other platform. EC2 allows you to "burst" your processing power or disk read/write speed. This is done automatically with no control from the administrator. Once the tokens run out, which is seemingly incalculable, the servers crash. The only way to keep the servers up is to keep spending more money by increasing the tokens (by raising the capacity), even though I didn't need the extra capacity. My servers are running perfectly on another provider now, on the lowest capacity instances, with no concept of "tokens" to worry about.

Avantages :

EC2 is so easy to set up. It doesn't require any thought to what is happening "behind the scenes".

Inconvénients :

It doesn't require any thought to what is happening "behind the scenes". When something breaks, you're on your own (without a minimum $2,000/mo support contract). AWS slowly increase the cost of associated tech with no way to understand why.

Top level elastic virtual machines

Commentaires : Overall I am, over the years, very happy with both the cost and quality of the EC2 platform specifically and the AWS services generally. It is my first choice for cloud infrastructure.

Avantages :

Easy to set up both manually and scripted, with a very wide variety of machine types so you can select the most cost-effective machines for your different needs. It's hosted on one of the most popular cloud platforms there are so expect to get high-quality infrastructure for a fair cost.

Inconvénients :

Permissions are complicated to set up, and load balancing is rather costly. Also, changing instance type requires a restart which is less than optimal.

Cloud Computing that will scale from startups to large businesses

Commentaires : We are realizing the benefits of flexible cloud computing with superb reliability, scalability and uptime. As a startup, we can simply count on EC2 being sufficient on the long term.

Avantages :

Amazon EC2 is an extremely flexible cloud computing service. It is modern, complete, integrates easily with all other AWS services and comes at a great price with an ever-decreasing pricing that will simply give the customer more value. If it is your first cloud computing experience, you can start with a template that will facilitate the process of getting started, however, be mindful because templates may tie you up considerably in the future. EC2 is all about standards so you can expect to integrate absolutely everything in your infrastructure with ease. EC2 is the reason why I think bare metal servers do not make a lot of sense nowadays. Speaking about features, you've got them all and EC2 proves to be a nice gateway to keep using other AWS services. At first, it may be intimidating to implement since the interface is still a bit misleading. Once you understand it, you get your money worth by every penny. We started with EC2 almost 8 years ago and I absolutely haven't thought about replacing with an alternative for many years to come.

Inconvénients :

EC2 interface still has a lot of room for improvement. I think that since it is so expansive, fitting everything in concisely in an interface is hard. I think that it has gotten better over time but never to the likes of DigitalOcean that is a superb functional and well-designed UI. Also, documentation is not very developer friendly (have you seen Mailgun's dev docs?) but it serves you well. Something there is documentation that is referring to another version of the service you are intending to use without you having a lot of notice, that's a catch. You should also know that just like Apple's ecosystem, AWS is also playing the same game, very difficult to export things should you ever have the need, so make a commitment or find somewhere else.

The best PaaS

Commentaires : I've been using AWS for over 10 years and I don't remember having any problems, except for the ones I caused myself. It's extremely reliable, safe and affordable.

Avantages :

Elastic Bean Stalk is a very simple and reliable platform as a service. You can configure various aspects of your application like deploy, autoscaling and database. Lambda is also an extremely useful resource for small service development without having to set up a complete framework for it.

Inconvénients :

Some functions are hard to learn like IAM for example. Also, managing costs well can be a challenge as there are many options to choose from.

Get ready your instance with few clicks

Commentaires : Easy configuration
Easy to access with go performance
Easy to customized
Easy to suspend and terminate
Preferable to go with EC-2 anytime.

Avantages :

AWS EC2 allows you to create an instance i.e Elastic compute within a few clicks. For AWS EC2 you do not need to be worried about the installation and partitions and etc configurations. Instead of selecting the things you just choose your requirement and get it configured with fully installed Everything within few clicks. Here you get save your time Here you get to save you money as you have to pay only as you required. You have to option as well for free tier to the testing purpose of EC2. Even you have to option to choose a flavor as per your requirement you can have an option to choose the categories wise instance You can just say that: easy simple deployment with EC2

Inconvénients :

If you have to configure the instance-EC2 you have to pay as per the billing criteria. You are not allowed to configured or customized your free tier instance-EC2. If you are not paying for your instance-EC2 your instance will be suspended.

Easy to use, even for non engineers like me

Commentaires : I'm a filmmaker with huge curiosity about technology, computers and internet. So, for me, the overall experience with Amazon EC2 it's very positive, because it's easy enough for no tech people and can give you the ability to move part or all your production to the cloud.

Avantages :

Amazon EC2 has all the power to deploy virtual machines in minutes. It was so easy that I was shocked the first time I took away my afraid, read the documentation and launched my first VM, which saves me when the pandemic started, and I had to work 100% online.

Inconvénients :

There are hundreds of settings that you must to keep on eye on it, because every one of them could charge you with undesired fees. So, be aware of terminate every Instance that you had created, backup your data and erase every storage to avoid surprises in upcoming bills.

The best scalable & bill friendly cloud service.

Avantages :

The very first thing which is best is the Pay-as-you-go billing system for EC2 such that even if the instance is made dormant for sometime it will not charge for its existence. On top of it it provides smooth scalability and easy integration with other AWS services.

Inconvénients :

For new beginners in AWS there is a slight learning curve for AWS services including EC2. That is for user when they first start using EC2 it might be tough for them to know its uses or applications.

The Standard for Cloud Computing

Avantages :

The ability to spool up a server in a few minutes has always blown my mind. I had a recent server failure that resulted in me spooling up a new server to replace it. I was able to get the job done in under two hours. It would have been much faster than that if I had done it before, but there was some learning required in the process. I've documented the process, so the next time this happens, I will be able to get back up and running in minutes. Having been in IT my whole life, this ability is quite amazing. It was the stuff of dreams over a decade ago and now I get to live it out. There are way too many good things to say about EC2. I can have multiple servers spread across the world so I can service my customers locally, instead of them having to traverse continents and oceans to hit up a server. I can attach and detach storage so I can start working from where I last started. The list goes on and on. I want to say that there is a plethora of helpful information available to those who need support. The Amazon support information is great as well as YouTube and other informational sites. If you're Google-Fu is up to date, you can get the help you need without having to pick up the phone.

Inconvénients :

The biggest con to EC2 is the shear vastness of features, tools, and functionality. For people who are new and want to start off, there is not an easy or simple "get started here" path that I have found. There is so much to learn, and so much you will never know, that getting some help at the beginning should really be considered.

AWS EC2 is the crown jewel of the cloud computing crown

Commentaires : I have been working with AWS for 2 years, undoubtedly is one of the best cloud computing solutions in the market.

Avantages :

Easy to deploy Easy to configure Fast and reliable tools Fully customizable

Inconvénients :

Console user management Roles assignment is tricky Cost is a little higher than competitors

The most elastic platform available.

Commentaires : I never had problems with this platform, it is really very complete and useful, it has an extremely high level of security, it also integrates very easily and natively with other aws tools, it is a wonderful multipurpose tool, which can be used with or without the other tools of aws.

Avantages :

This tool is extremely versatile, serves as a vps, and as a base instance for many other aws tools, it allows me to connect to external aws platforms simply, it has a high level of configuration, customization and security. I can specifically choose each hardware component that is needed according to the needs of the projects, and the platform is ready to use in a few minutes, in addition to having a very extensive configuration panel, with many configurations, in addition to a console, which allows Work through commands directly, without opening the instance, its download and upload speed is very high and quite stable.

Inconvénients :

It is difficult for me to think of a negative aspect on this platform, however, what must be taken into account is that it is a fairly complete and complex tool to use, so the learning curve is quite steep.

Cloud computing done easy with EC2

Commentaires : I really enjoyed using EC2 and AWS overall, I have used it for many of my projects and it worked seamlessly.

Avantages :

EC2 was the core infrastructure in the Platform I have developed for a few months. It has provided computing sources for a Web App that was used extensively by hundreds of clients. It was reliable (no downtimes were recorded) and quite easy to set up. We have used different configurations of EC2 to meet our efficiency needs

Inconvénients :

The learning curve for EC2 and AWS overall is quite steep, so the first steps were quite hard, but it was worth the effort to learn administrating EC2.

Cloud Computing at its best with a catch

Avantages :

Server Deployment is easy - We use Amazon EC2 for deploying cloud servers for our applications. We have been able to easily deploy multiple configurations from the panel at the click of a button. Y Built on Linux - EC2 is built on Linux so if you have an understanding of Linux, it makes using EC2 easier. Cost effective. You really can't beat the cost here, being able to scale at a fraction of the cost of hosting an actual server is worth investing in EC2. You can easily turn off instances of EC2 servers when not in use to save money. Reliability - Amazon servers have extremely good uptimes which means they are working most of the time, in fact, we have not experienced any downtime since we switched from a fixed host provider.

Inconvénients :

As with any platform, learning to use Amazon EC2 can take some time. We had to have our team re-trained to start using it. So it is not ideal if you just want to deploy right away. Also AWS services are complicated to use in general so you may find it confusing use. For example, the billing panel can be confusing to use if you have multiple instances of servers running. Because of the complicated nature of the Admin panel, it is easy to get lost in features and tools available, so you are better off staying within the areas of the admin area you know.

Computing on the cloud (just if you need more AWS products)

Commentaires : It's a powerful tool when used for a good use case , for example a couple years ago the only way to run a prometheus database on Amazon was via EC2 , and since it was deployed on my infrastructure I applied the same security groups and networking configurations that I had for other services.

Avantages :

Once you have an infrastructure created on AWS creating instances on EC2 is easy , networking capabilities are very powerful and give you a lot of flexibility for different use cases. You also have a wide variety of options to choose from.

Inconvénients :

It's too heavy for very simple use cases, for example if you want to deploy a wordpress server or a simple django application you will need to understand and take into account a lot of networking settings. It's not cheaper than other services like DigitalOcean or Linode, and the heavy-lifting is real

The best solution for all your computational needs

Commentaires : We used it to host the web app we were developing, together with all other websites we were making for that business. We even hosted our newspaper website WordPress setup with Amazon. The developers were extremely happy with Amazon services and were in touch with people from Amazon who were amazingly nice whenever I interacted with them.

Avantages :

Whatever we needed, Amazon supported. They even had a Wordpress hosting environment that we could transfer our newspaper website to.

Inconvénients :

The price was not low as we had a need for a large number of machines and the amounts quickly added up, but it was still manageable.

Scale with Amazon EC2

Avantages :

1. Ease of Use 2. Scalability 3. Availability of wide range of linux and window distributions 4. Quick and Easy spin of virtual servers 5. Support of all the major development languages 6. Spin up the server as per need and save cost on your requirement 7. Resize your instances based on changes in the requirement 8. Flexible Pricing Options. 9. Secure and Reliable in or out of network accessibility 10. Snapshot of Instances can be saved on S3 storage in case you need to use it later. and many more...!!

Inconvénients :

Learning curve is there, apart from there nothing is bad about Amazon EC2 services.

Amazon EC2: Best VM out there!

Avantages :

I love how we can easily customize the virtual machine and how good amazon's customer service is. Our company uses it as a VM and we also run our products on it. It is very good and also has specific compliance with respect to micro industry such as ours.(medical)

Inconvénients :

Little complex to use at first, but you eventually get the hang of it. I also feel the payment dashboard should be more simpler.

Simple cloud virtual machine hosting

Commentaires : EC2 has provided me with excellent, low-cost VM hosting in the cloud for many years

Avantages :

EC2 is a game-changing technology that enables you to rapidly spin up a virtual machine in the cloud at very low cost

Inconvénients :

Compared to newer on-demand hosting options, the EC2 model is less flexible

AWS EC2 - amazon cloud servers my review

Commentaires : overall experience with Amazon EC2 is satisfactory as they are easy to launch and use which reduces time to implement server but just keep an eye on the price and monitoring matrices .

Avantages :

AWS EC2 instances are easy to launch and use we can use any OS we need , AMI are available and we can directly launch them from dash board on AWS cloud . all type of instance are available as per the requirement like general purpose , and instances which are optimised in computation , Memory and Ram can be selected . EBS volume can be attached according to requirement .

Inconvénients :

when upgrade is required then we have to separately upgrade instance and EBS volume and run command to attach the EBS volume .

Amazing Web service tool for backend and cloud solutions!!

Commentaires : Its been great experience , have used it to host our website and its services in order to make sure we deliver it faster.

Avantages :

Amazing app to go with for startups, provides 30GB free space, fast,reliable ,cost saving service and easy to use on any OS. Its EBS(elastic book store) feature is adds on.

Inconvénients :

Its highly configurable and scalable, so need to learn alot to utilize its features. Its not a con though but can be made even more user friendly, i liked all its features.

Great scalability and less maintenance costs

Avantages :

Amazon EC2 provides full control of virtual servers to you and it is very suitable if your application process very large amount of data. EC2 provides great scalability which does not cause any connection problems while scaling. It has great documentation and API. I have never faced any instance failure and efforts of maintenance is very less against dedicated servers.

Inconvénients :

I think Amazon should add console access directly.

Best AWS service for IaaS in cloud

Commentaires : With EC2 I have an overall good experience. It is very easy and simple to manage resources. It is also providing a high level of security.

Avantages :

I like the way EC2 provide flexibility to choose different kind of instances based on the requirement. It also provide flexibility to configure it as well as take it down automatically based on need

Inconvénients :

I can't think of anything which I don't like

One of Best Cloud Service Provider

Avantages :

This is a very secure, high performing and highly available server.

Inconvénients :

Its UI is a bit confusing for the starters and updating the servers takes time as we need to apply every patch manually.
