Cons
"The only area of improvement is the speed at which servers are launched. When cleaning up to six servers at a time, it can take up to 15 to 20 minutes to launch new servers.""The product’s security features need improvement.""AWS Auto Scaling's documentation could be better.""The product’s pricing needs improvement.""The product could add more features for managing instances.""The solution's infrastructure scalability and elasticity could be improved.""We can have more auto scaling algorithms implemented in AWS Auto Scaling.""In comparison to other public clouds, the product is costly."

More AWS Auto Scaling Cons →

"The problem becomes the price, as Splunk is an expensive product.""The data recovery has room for improvement.""Splunk ITSI consumes a lot of CPU resources.""The end-to-end visibility in Splunk ITSI is limited and has room for improvement.""We also faced challenges relating to UI development.""Microservices is the only area where Splunk ITSI can be improved. When things come from one EC2 instance to another, there's a lack of exposure to microservices, so we can't know what's happening. Apart from that, it's doing pretty well.""Predictive analytics, in terms of preventing incidents before they occur, still needs time to mature.""Some of our customers occasionally require the development of the connectors when there are no native connectors so that we can develop in Python or for customer slash comments as well. If they could adjust that, it would be ideal."
