We performed a comparison between Amazon EKS and Docker based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
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."The solution has very good basic features."
"The most important aspect of Amazon EKS is that it is easy to set up and very easy to upgrade."
"EKS provides autoscaling functionality."
"Initial setup is straightforward. It only takes 15 minutes to deploy."
"The most valuable feature is the computing speed."
"Through Amazon EKS, we can have the blue-green deployment very easily."
"Overall Amazon EKS is a good solution in the industry. The solution can support multi tendencies, and network isolations are the key factors."
"It is a scalable solution."
"Docker is easy to understand and follow. It provides good scalability to the application."
"The solution's most valuable feature is having containers independent of the operating system or environment."
"The most valuable feature of Docker is automation. When I deploy the solution I am confident it will work anywhere. It is reliable and easy to use."
"When used in conjunction with Kubernetes, it is seamless because it integrates very well."
"I think the best feature is to replicate anything in our local machine using a simple command."
"The most valuable features of Docker are its security, detailed documentation, and ease of use, and the Docker Swarm is not as complex as Kubernetes."
"Docker allows you to run multiple virtual machines independently."
"Containerization is the most valuable feature. I can communicate to the Docker containers using other containers."
"I'd like to see the solution add a service catalog."
"I believe the initial setup could be a better experience and faster customer support."
"I would like to see it a little more stable, more operational, and more convenient to develop."
"There is room for improvement in stability. I faced some problems with the App."
"It is very cumbersome to assign permissions to users to interact with a cluster."
"I would like to see a cloud setup bank management feature."
"Setup depends on what kind of architecture you have"
"I encountered problems with the product’s documentation."
"I think Docker can improve as it relates to overall stability."
"If you install Docker on a host, it creates its own firewalls. It can become an issue. Usually, when you want to install Docker, you need to restart the firewall or restart the active tables on the machine, but this is not the case with Kubernetes. It uses the default set up by the next administrator, but with Docker, you have to restart the firewall and restart Docker before the firewall on the system will be okay. If you do not the rules will not be created."
"We have found that it is not easy to install it into a Windows system."
"The command line interface could be more intuitive. I constantly struggle with it."
"I would like to see a more UI-based tool so that students can easily understand it rather than memorizing all of the Docker commands."
"I would love to have it available on Linux."
"There may not be much room for improvement with Docker as it has greatly evolved. However, one area that could be improved upon is the documentation on their website which was once easy to follow but has become quite terrible with numerous versions being released. As an example, the installation process for Docker now requires more than just a one-line command, causing inconvenience. Additionally, based on my experience as a college instructor, teaching students to install Docker was a difficult task due to the lack of straightforward and easy-to-follow documentation. Docker should focus on improving their documentation to make it more user-friendly for all."
"I would like to see a single package image orchestration bundled together."
