Make sure to choose the right instances for your workloads to avoid overpaying. Ensure that you are consistently patching and upgrading your operating systems to avoid vulnerabilities. I'd rate the solution ten out of ten.
AI is becoming increasingly integrated. There may be a future where AI simplifies the processes that currently require manual scripting or console-driven actions. I'd rate the solution eight out of ten.
We deal with customers. The data is critical for us. People who want to use the solution must just start using it and get familiar with it. It will make all the difference in the world. Overall, I rate the solution a ten out of ten.
I rate the overall product an eight out of ten. The advice I would give to people who want to start using Amazon EC2 depends on their use case. However, we've found it to be a good cloud development environment with strong security measures. Security is crucial, especially with the increasing use of various devices to access systems.
The platform integration with other AWS services, such as backup and archiving solutions, has streamlined our operations and improved data management. I would rate Amazon EC2 a nine. It has consistently performed well, offering robust features.
We are using the cloud version of Amazon EC2. I would recommend Amazon EC2 to users looking for a secure, scalable, and reliable solution to host all their servers. Overall, I rate Amazon EC2 a nine out of ten.
Depending upon the use case, it is suitable for disaster recovery. I recommend users set up usage limits or track budgets on-site. Amazon EC2 has been functional. We repatriate some stuff in-house because of the ongoing costs. Overall, I rate the solution a nine out of ten.
Azure uses Sentinel, which is dedicated to security information and event management. However, AWS does not have a centralized solution for SIEM. AWS is using security hubs like GuardDuty, but it is for different purposes. We have to log in to these dashboards separately. AWS needs to have a centralized SIEM solution. People who want to use the product must consider the future predictability and decide whether they need a single EC2 instance or a Load Balancing or Auto Scaling infrastructure deployment and deploy accordingly. Overall, I rate the solution a nine out of ten.
If someone hasn't started using EC2 yet, I'd recommend exploring it. EC2 offers simplicity, robustness, and support for efficient cloud operations. It's a tool that's definitely worth considering. Overall, I would rate the solution a solid ten on ten.
I am using the latest version of Amazon EC2. Amazon EC2 is deployed in our organization on cloud. If you know you will use a virtual machine for a long time, it is better to have Amazon EC2 as a reserve, which will be way cheaper. Overall, I rate Amazon EC2 an eight out of ten.
Overall, I would rate the product a one out of ten. I wouldn't recommend other people to use the solution. My issue with Amazon is not with the product but with the company's ethics. I wouldn't trust them with anything so I would rate it a one out of ten. In January 2020, Amazon closed down a billion-dollar company just because it was a competitor to Twitter, and they thought Donald Trump would get an account on it. They broke all their contracts, destroyed the company, and left them unable to recover. That's why I don't trust Amazon as far as I can throw them.
I would rate the solution a nine out of ten. I like the product’s performance. We have a different methodology where we check the work and evaluate how it is beneficial and how we can reduce the costs. My company is working on this. We use the solution for temporary use cases. My team uses it to build, produce and monitor the cloud versions. If there is a need to scale up or down, we will do that. Amazon EC2 has auto-load elastic LV. The solution is stable and we have never faced any downtime with it. We also have an alarm system where we get ticket notifications. Our applications have never been down and we are happy with Amazon EC2.
I would recommend that new users be very clear on what they require from this solution, and advise that they start with the 'user on demand' package until they know exactly what level of usage they need. I would rate this solution a nine out of ten.
We're customers. I'm using a normal regular EC2. I'm not using containers. On the cloud, we use both Amazon and Azure as our cloud. I'd recommend the solution as it is scalable, readily available, and offers good cost savings. People who know AWS have been very happy with the experience. I'd rate the solution ten out of ten.
I would recommend this solution to others and Azure. This is a fantastic solution, it provides the basic requirement for any cloud. They make available computing space or a server to use for customers. I rate Amazon EC2 an eight out of ten.

This is an amazing solution although it's not suitable for every company. They lose one point because the price is quite high so I rate this product nine out of 10.
We plan to increase usage as our business expands, we will grow with AWS as it expands. In terms of the EC2 services, it's an amazing product, in terms of the computational power and the flexibility and then the number of features and services they provide, it's awesome actually. I would rate it a ten out of ten.

I would recommend identifying the active directory configuration of your clients. The majority of client type integrations will have some active directory involved, and they also have Office 365 now. Getting a better understanding of that configuration will help the solution implementer in using the AWS platform. I would rate Amazon EC2 a nine out of ten.
My advice to anyone considering this is that they need to evaluate if it's necessary to have EC2, or if it is cheaper to run something in-house. It's very important because you don't want to throw money at cloud service providers if you can do it yourself. But the good thing is that cloud service providers take care of all the infrastructure and everything so you don't have to worry about that. It's nice to also have someone else accountable for your every structure rather than employing so many people at your job to do the work. That's the only good side about it. It is easy to learn Azure and all those GCP products. On a scale of one to ten I would give Amazon EC2 an 8. I definitely would not give it a 10. It's not the best of the best because we still have issues with downtime. We still have issues with the cost of storage, with all these different instance styles, and how much it costs. They cost an arm and a leg the higher you go. Sometimes performance is an issue because of the kind of incidents that you have. That is why it cannot be a nine or a 10. But because CloudWatch is embedded in it, it lets you know when your system fails by sending you an email. It also has Trend Micro included. I think you may have to pay for it, am not sure. So it has benefits if you use it with other AWS services.

Know your use cases. You have to analyze your load and use case before you select a particular EC2 machine. You also need to look into the availability and the stability of that particular version of EC2 that you are going for. Mainly Windows is secure, but Linus and others are difficult to secure. I would rate this solution a seven out ten.

We use the cloud deployment model. I'd advise others to understand the costs involved before implementing the solution. There are transaction and storage costs as well as running costs. I'd rate the solution nine out of ten.
Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (Amazon EC2) is a web service that provides secure, resizable compute capacity in the cloud. It is designed to make web-scale cloud computing easier for developers.
Amazon EC2’s simple web service interface allows you to obtain and configure capacity with minimal friction. It provides you with complete control of your computing resources and lets you run on Amazon’s proven computing environment. Amazon EC2 reduces the time required to obtain and boot new server...
