So, it creates a dependency.""It is hard to coordinate the declaratory language.""The pricing of the solution can be improved.""The interface can sometimes feel limited, as we're unable to see what AWS is running behind the scenes.""I would like to see more data transformation features in Amazon Step Functions like additional operators and logic.""The solution's data size limit can be improved.""The price and support are areas with shortcomings where the solution needs to improve."
