What do you like best?
it is simple to set up and pretty self-explanatory. Never had issues around scaling up or down. Noe we won't need to guess the capacity for our apps or services.
What do you dislike?
Nothing much. It is a good service. there is a bit of rework and a learning curve, but that is usually one time only!
Recommendations to others considering the product:
There will be a steep learning curve, but the technology will in turn help in saving a lot of costs if used perfectly.
What problems are you solving with the product? What benefits have you realized?
Beach processing. We were able to put some API and websites as well in auto-scaling which helped us save compute costs.
