Find out in this report how the two Container Management solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."It is the best service because it has proper security packages."
"The most valuable feature is the cluster engine."
"We do not have to do a lot of administration, such as create virtual machines, or worry about our controllers or nodes going down because the solution is fully managed by Amazon."
"I like its auto-scale feature very much."
"Amazon EKS can be used to implement and create clusters."
"Break down your application into small modules to improve resiliency"
"The solution is easy-to-set up."
"EKS provides autoscaling functionality."
"The multi-tenancy with the VCD is great."
"VMware Tanzu Mission Control has many valuable features, such as ease of use and customization."
"The initial setup is easy."
"I have multiple Kubernetes environments within my environment. TMC gives me a single pane view, which is good for managing everything."
"Defining security metrics has proven beneficial for customers in maintaining a safe environment."
"Tanzu Mission Control has quite a set of rich features when compared to OpenShift."
"The most important feature of Tanzu Mission Control is its integration with the other products, especially with ESX and vSAN. This is a strong part of Tanzu Mission Control. In other solutions, such as OpenShift or Kubernetes, you can find similar features, but they don't have similar integration. With Tanzu Mission Control, you get a total solution with only one provider. You have the integration with the infrastructure, virtualization of networking, and virtualization of storage. You have a natural integration, and you don't have the problem of integrating it with different products or providers. Sometimes, different companies have good integration, but it is not always guaranteed. For example, many years ago, Cisco and VMware were good partners in networking, but when VMware started to sell ESX, the relationship was broken. This is the problem that you can face when you are using solutions from two different companies."
"The most valuable feature of VMware Tanzu Mission Control is the management functionality of the cluster life cycle. Additionally, the solution integrates well with other vendors, such as Velero for backups and Sonobuoy for compliance. Additionally, it works well in multi-cluster environments."
"I believe the initial setup could be a better experience and faster customer support."
"Amazon EKS provides very minimum information during the upgrade of the node group."
"Amazon EKS should improve its integration."
"An area for improvement in Amazon EKS is the user experience. The platform could be more user-friendly. Only an expert can manage and use it."
"The documentation part of the product is an area of concern that needs to be made easier from an improvement perspective."
"The overall stability of the product should be improved to prevent any loss of data."
"It is very cumbersome to assign permissions to users to interact with a cluster."
"They need to work on the Amazon plugins on the Kubernetes cluster."
"This product doesn't have a GUI. In order to use it properly, I need to connect it to a new GUI or build a GUI to manage it — it's pretty difficult."
"The infrastructure is quite challenging."
"We want to see a new feature that helps build more security architecture like Zero Trust Security or shifting left in Kubernetes."
"LYNX is a managed cluster solution that takes care of specific details within a cluster, such as sequences or services. I haven't seen this feature in Tanzu Mission Control."
"Cost is always a concern. Smaller companies might find the price a bigger issue."
"The disaster recovery feature could be improved to provide better tracking of issues. I would also like to see the introduction of a dashboard view, for even further integration of all the areas that Mission Control looks at."
"Another area of improvement is pricing."
"The solution could improve by having better integration with other solutions such as HPE."
