Amazon EKS Reviews

Amazon EKS is for storage, services, and infrastructure. We have about 100 to 120 users on Amazon EKS right now. We'll likely expand by 10 or 15 percent in the next year depending on our customer needs. 

AWS cloud services are flexible and have thorough documentation. AWS also has data centers all over the world.

I would like Amazon EKS to be easier to configure on various environments like Windows or Linux installations

I've been using Amazon EKS for five years.

We use AWS in parallel with other cloud service providers from different vendors, like Azure and GCP. We are not the end customer. It's something we use to deliver services to our customers. We work with a wide range of technologies at the company, which employs around 500 plus people. They work with all major technologies currently available.

Installing Amazon EKS is straightforward. It depends on what needs to be done, but it's not something that takes weeks to deploy. You can do it in a few hours or days. I would need to have a specific scenario to be precise because the steps vary in each installation.

I would like Amazon EKS to be cheaper. Otherwise, it's fine.  

I rate Amazon EKS eight out of 10. 

Our primary case is using Amazon EKS with all of our data in our MapReduce, map clusters, and our data clusters. And from there, we just input the information using Python and do our analysis using that.

We have problems with setting up virtual environments and installing the right packages. I believe the initial setup could be a better experience and faster customer support.

I have been using Amazon EKS for the past one and half years now.

The stability is excellent.

The scalability is not a problem we currently have five to six thousand employees using Amazon EKS.

Technical support or customer support is good but could be faster.

For us in our company, it is a very straightforward process because they had built a layer that is very useful for the users with just a couple of clicks. But normally, if you ask me in person, I think it is a bit cumbersome.

It can be done in-house but they have to read a lot of documentation from the AWS provider in order for it to make sense.

When you compare it to on-premises it is much better because, with on-premise, we have to look into data security and all these items. Amazon EKS eliminates that and becomes a cost-benefit for us.

On a scale of one to ten, I would give it a six. With the correct technical support individual, you can do well with implementation. If you are not sure about the technical support side for implementation I would wait until you are ready.

Our main use case is when our client or the customer would like to have their service on AWS. When the client preference is AWS.

Our company prefers Amazon EKS to ECS.

The feature that I have found most valuable is that it is very user-friendly.

I would like to see it a little more stable, more operational, and more convenient to develop.

I have been using Amazon EKS for about two to three years.

Amazon EKS is very stable.

We have about 500 people in our organization using it.

Our technical team for the deployment and maintenance is only five people, one manager and four engineers.

We are definitely going to continue using this solution.

For container management, I had been using the IBM SP solution, but frankly speaking I don't like the IBM Cloud.

The initial installation was straightforward. It took under 30 minutes.

I love dealing with EKS. Personally, I like to deal with the Kubernetes solution.

On a scale of one to the, I would rate EKS a nine.

I would recommend Amazon EKS to others.

We use Amazon Elastic Kubernetes Service (EKS) to manage our containers and to run and scale Kubernetes applications in the cloud.

Overall Amazon EKS is a good solution in the industry. The solution can support multi tendencies, and network isolations are the key factors.

Amazon EKS is predominately public. However, the government has started to have a lot of interest in Kubernetes and is receiving more education on Kubernetes and Amazon EKS. If we can have the security of Amazon EKS align with the security that is set out by the government it would be much better.

I have been using Amazon EKS for approximately six months.

Amazon EKS is scalable.

We are in the process of migrating from OpenShift to Amazon EKS which will be a lot of work to migrate over. We have about over 300 developers who are going to use Amazon EKS in the future.

We have previously used OpenShift.

I did the implementation of the solution myself in my organization.

I have found OpenShift to be a better tool and I would recommend it.

I rate Amazon EKS an eight out of ten.

We mainly use EKS for containers. We use Kubernetes for scalable deployments.

We're using EKS because our customers requested it. They wanted autoscaling functionality. We have our own product, and we deploy it for our customers in Amazon cloud.

The containers are built, registered, and then kept in a repository at the docker site. Our IT department has an account there. From there, it's exposed and we use the Amazon template surveys and cloud formation template. Then, our IT team creates CFTs. The scripts are run, and the containers are deployed from there.

It's a hybrid solution.

EKS provides autoscaling functionality.

I started using EKS about eight months ago.

It's reasonably stable. EKS is used with Fargate.

From what I understand, it's scalable. I haven't heard of any issues.

Setup depends on what kind of architecture you have.

It depends on the script that's prepared. Once the script is done, just one person is needed for deployment.

We have an internal team that takes care of deployment. They're a specialized team.

I would rate this solution as eight out of ten.

My advice is that not every architecture can fit into EKS. You have to really evaluate whether EKS is suitable for the kind of design and architecture you have. Evaluate it first and then attempt it.

We use Amazon EKS to build integration projects and manage the infrastructure.  

Amazon EKS is compatible with Kubernetes API. I can use the autoscaling feature to manage and scale up infrastructure. I can monitor the cluster as well.

I encountered problems with the product’s documentation. Additionally, the CPU consumes a lot of memory. EKS could be modular like GCP as well.

We have been using Amazon EKS for one year.

The initial setup is more straightforward if you use the console.

I rate Amazon EKS’s pricing a nine out of ten. It costs around $200 and is expensive for the Brazilian market.

I rate Amazon EKS a nine out of ten.

It is challenging to host the applications in the existing VPC of the solution. They should include some essential configuration features to it.

We have been using the solution for the last two to three years.

It is a stable solution. I rate its stability as an eight or nine. Although, it is difficult to find a stable version sometimes.

It is a scalable solution. I rate its scalability as a ten. We can quickly scale the cluster as per requirements. We have medium and enterprise business clients using the solution.

The solution's customer service is excellent. They also provide detailed documentation.

Positive

The solution's initial setup process is straightforward. It takes two to three days to deploy it in any infrastructure. We require one executive for implementation and around two executives for maintenance.

The solution is cheaper than AKS. Its license costs $73. The customers have to pay extra depending on the instances they want to deploy for hosting the application. I rate its pricing as a four.

I rate the solution as an eight. I advise others to use EKS ETL instead of AWS command prompt while deploying it.

I have tried to host the enterprise content management application of IBM FileNet on Amazon EKS. That's the main use case. 

The solution has very good basic features.

The provisioning is very good we use it for the containerization of COTS applications.

The product is stable. 

If a company needs to scale the solution, it can.

The initial setup is simple. 

We've found the solution's technical support to be helpful and responsive.

There isn't something that is unique or outstanding. 

I'd like to see the solution add a service catalog.

I've used the solution for quite a number of years. It's been around three so far. 

We've found the solution to be stable. Currently, it's used on standard VMs. If we put it on Kubernetes clusters, it is highly reliable as well as easy to monitor, manage, and operate. It's great.

The solution is absolutely scalable. There are many enterprises running their businesses on this.

I'm not deploying anything for customers or a certain number of users. I'm just doing it for my own purposes. I'm learning about it and I'm trying new things. I propose these ideas to customers for various solutions and the implementations are done by another team, the delivery team, later. I can't speak to how many people ultimately end up using it.

Technical support is very good. There is no issue. There's no delayed response for their support. There's no lack of support. They are very helpful and we are quite satisfied. 

The initial setup is not overly complex or difficult. It's very simple, very straightforward. The instruction guides are all available and it's enough to get a user through the setup process. They are quite helpful guides. 

We have a professional services team that does the job day in, day out. That said, I do it for my learning and I practice something on my own too. Therefore, I am also very capable of handling the initial setup myself. 

We already have costs built into the service given by the particular vendor. If it is on-premise, we buy the software, and we pay some support costs and license costs. However, if it is on the cloud, it is a pay-per-use model. 

I'm an integrator of the solution. 

The solution can be deployed both on the cloud and on-premises. 

We are using the latest version of the solution at this time. I can't speak to the exact version number, however.

I would recommend this solution to others. 

I'd rate the product at a nine out of ten. We're pretty happy with its capabilities so far.
