"Data Migration and ETL using AWS Cloud"
What do you like best about AWS Cloud?

The ease of creating/managing resources be it serverless or managed by us. We migrated the old architecutere to AWS using various services like DMS, Step functions, Lambda, ECS, SNS,SQS,Redshift etc. The integration/implementation process was quite easy and stable. As a team we used to focus more on logic rather than worrying about the infrastructure. Within a year we were able to migrate everything to AWS. We used the new Architecture everyday from ingestion to reporting. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about AWS Cloud?

There were scenarios where the lambda services were not able to invoke other resources which led to data loss. but after connecting to the customer support team we could analyze the issue and with the suggestions of the support team could see to it that the same issue does not arises again.

It also integrates seamlessly with other popular developer tools, making development and deployment workflows streamlined.

The security features of AWS are also impressive. With extensive compliance certifications, robust encryption options, and built-in security measures, I can trust that my applications and data are well protected. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
