What do you like best about Amazon Elastic Container Service (Amazon ECS)?

Amazon provides what they advertise. They have various types of machines depending your requirement ranging from compute intensive machines to high IO machines. I created a 5 node Hadoop cluster with ease on Amazon EC2 nodes. They also have a lot prebuilt machines installed with all the required softwares/tools you need. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Amazon Elastic Container Service (Amazon ECS)?

Amazon services are a little expensive than its competitor google cloud.You may not find a lot of options on google cloud as compared to Amazon but may cost you less. It would be great if machines computation/cost can be reduced during non-peak hours dynamically. There are some companies such as Qubole that reduces your computation cost by reducing the number of AWS machines when not needed. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Amazon Elastic Container Service (Amazon ECS):

I highly recommend using Amazon EC2 services. You will be free from Server Administration tasks and worry about unplanned downtime of servers in peak hours. Easy to scale up as your company/project grows which will reduce your upfront investment on hardware. You can also compare it Google cloud services to reduce your implementation cost.

What problems is Amazon Elastic Container Service (Amazon ECS) solving and how is that benefiting you?

Amazon follows pay-per-use model whether its software, platform or infrastructure. Its a great way to build Proof of concepts without investing in a infrastructure that might not be sufficient later for your development needs. The services are elastic i.e. you can choose the type/number of machines as much as you need. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
