"Advantages of AWS Cloud Storage"
What do you like best about AWS Cloud Storage?

AWS Cloud Storage, specifically Amazon S3 (Simple Storage Service), offers virtually unlimited storage capacity. It allows you to scale your storage resources up or down based on your needs without worrying about hardware limitations. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Using AWS Cloud Storage may create a level of dependency on the AWS ecosystem.

This can result in a certain level of vendor lock-in. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
