Find out what your peers are saying about Red Hat, Amazon Web Services (AWS), VMware and others in Container Management."The solution is simple to access."
"The solution's technical support is good."
"For me, the best feature of ECS is Fargate because I don't have to manage anything. Instead, everything is managed by AWS and all I have to do, in essence, is configure my containers and deploy them."
"Once you get the procedure right, and set a pattern, it just works."
"The production environment is highly available, which nowadays is a requirement for all of the big companies."
"The solution is user-friendly."
"Amazon EC2 Container Service is a flexible product from Amazon. You can put it in the Auto Scaling group for high availability. There are also a lot of choices for pricing."
"It is a highly stable solution. Stability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten."
"The most valuable feature is definitely the fact that you can use a single platform to deploy to different resource providers. Right now, the version I'm using has vSphere and AWS, but I know in the future they're planning on adding more. The ability to deploy clusters on-prem or to any number of public cloud providers is really valuable because you don't need to relearn or switch platforms to switch resource providers."
"Support could be better with response time and knowledge of staff."
"After the load balancer gets attached to Amazon Elastic Container Service clusters, I can't modify, remove, or replace it later."
"Amazon Elastic Container Service should simplify its management. It can be difficult for someone who doesn't have much experience with the tool. Also, the tool needs to add the ability to manage networks."
"The pricing could be a bit better."
"I think that it would help if the vendor provided more use cases and explanations as to how ECS can be utilized."
"The solution can still be expensive, even with per-second billing."
"Visualization is an important factor for me, and I don't think that the visuals within ECS are good enough because it doesn't show you all the details you might need to see at a glance."
"My company has faced some stability issues with Amazon EC2 Container Service."
"One thing that is a little bit annoying about Cisco Container Platform is that for each cluster you create you have to go through the same web form each time. If you're creating two identical clusters, you still have to go through that web form twice."
