AWS Lambda Overview

What is AWS Lambda?

AWS Lambda lets you run code without provisioning or managing servers. You pay only for the compute time you consume - there is no charge when your code is not running. With Lambda, you can run code for virtually any type of application or backend service - all with zero administration. Just upload your code and Lambda takes care of everything required to run and scale your code with high availability. You can set up your code to automatically trigger from other AWS services or call it directly from any web or mobile app.

"AWS Cloud - Top Most Public Cloud Provider"
What do you like best about AWS Cloud?

AWS cloud is one of the best providers of user-friendly AI. It is 100 % reliable and very easy to use. It offers some commendable services because of which nothing seems like a huge task. And on top of that, my favourite part is the free tier account for services like Ec2.

The deployments using ECR and ECS are way to easier and user-friendly. We can easily create tasks and schedule them. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about AWS Cloud?

The only minus point I feel is it can be quite expensive if not used with proper pre-planning. Also, I don't very much prefer the VPC Subnet service because once you delete default subnets by mistake you can't retrieve that again. So I feel some improvements can be done here.

"AWS is a go to platform from a layman to an expert in this computer world."
What do you like best about AWS Cloud?

The best thing about AWS is that we get everything in one place. Once we get basic knowledge of all the available services we can set up our entire digital business in the AWS cloud itself. Since AWS provide services on a pay as you go model this reduces the upfront costs for any company and we can simply focus on our business. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about AWS Cloud?

Even though most of the services are affordable, some services are expensive when we compare their worth to their usage. If we leave the services active without knowledge we might end up paying a hefty amount.Also, I feel if we have an option to shut down/stop all the services or an option to select the active services that can be stopped that will be the best thing.

"Dominating Cloud Platform - AWS"
What do you like best about AWS Cloud?

Amazon Web Services (AWS) is leading the cloud technology in comparison to other cloud platforms because of its simplicity in delivering cloud services with a minimal amount of latency. It is a very easy task to understand any service that falls under AWS with proper demonstration. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about AWS Cloud?

I've not yet experienced any downside while using AWS since I am a user, but the only concern with AWS is that its services are expensive. For the startups, its a huge deal when it comes up to costing Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"AWS Cloud Review"
What do you like best about AWS Cloud?

AWS is one of the best Cloud providers out there in the market. It is helping many small businesses out there to achieve the development of highly scalable products via the many services offered at an affordable price. I like their documentation very much as it's the most detailed documentation I have ever seen and it's pretty self-explainatory. Apart from this their pricing is very competitive as compared to other cloud players in the market. They also provide free Credits which can be consumed on some of their cloud resources for new learners to cloud. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about AWS Cloud?

Plan your development before using their services otherwise that affordable price will overshoot your monthly budgets within no time, one of the reason can be improper handling of lambda function failures resulting in repetitive invocation of the same.

Charging extra money for technical support is also something not liked by many users and companies starting at an initial level. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"My Experience"
What do you like best about AWS Lambda?

We use Lamba to run serverless functions by creating a reaction-based hook that triggers specific written procedures, which makes helm values in Lamba great to use and saves on a lot of costs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about AWS Lambda?

The cost of triggering one function per cycle is a lot more than other services and can be written using fully custom code. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"I am a cloud architect who have managed multiple applications on AWS cloud"
What do you like best about AWS Cloud?

Aws is helping many IT industries because they are providing varieties of AWS services, Their AWS document is quite powerful and easily understandable even class 10th students can learn and make their application easily, You are providing a free account for beginners which is also a great thing. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about AWS Cloud?

Community builder is adding yearly and the checklist is quite high, Even senior-level cloud engineers are not able to meet the requirements if they are not publically exposed so well, So AWS can give them chance and disable them if they are not fulfilling their responsibility, My kind of people only react when you assign some task with them Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Best Cloud service provider especially for intermediate to expert users"
What do you like best about AWS Cloud?

There are a lot of tools available and they make it easier to integrate the products fast and reliably. e.g. there are custom ec2 images available and the ability to use specialized images for tasks such as ML. It is also quite easier to use Sagemaker and we are not forced to use terminal only.

It is quite easy to scale services as per resource needs and performance requirements Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about AWS Cloud?

While there are a lot of services that do perform up to the mark, there are small things like delays in response or not showing resource consumptions for all machines, our team works in diiferent zones so we need to switch them for monitoring pusposes.

Also it requires to run a lot of services in paralled so it might be troublesome for users who are not adept to using it effectively. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
