Pros
"Support for multiple data sources and formats is a fantastic feature."

More AWS AppSync Pros →

"WhereScape's deployment package is a fantastic feature. The application allows for selecting specific objects that you would like to deploy from one environment to another rather than deploying the entire database.""I found the initial setup very easy.""WhereScape is really helpful in terms of architecture data. Everything is one of automation. Two people can do thousands of tables in one day or two. It saves a lot of time.""RED has provided us the ability to integrate, stage, and transform data from diverse sources into an enterprise-grade data warehouse which meets the needs of my organization, but it also enables us to easily and quickly make ETL or DW changes.""This is a fantastically robust DW tool that will make you at least 10 times faster in producing a DW.""WhereScape RED has improved our business's ability to generate needed reporting without requiring a large team of developers to manually code all of the necessary plumbing.""Naturally produces a way to easily debug your DW data solutions.""Data transformations and rollups are easy to accomplish."

Cons
"Moving to other clouds is impossible without significantly rearchitecting your applications."

More AWS AppSync Cons →

"Customization could be better.""Jobs cannot be deleted via the deployment package. When deploying from dev to QA or production, a job has to be retired. The job has to be manually removed from the target environment.""Technical support isn't the best.""It could use a tool to diagnose what is missing from the environment for WhereScape to install successfully.""The scheduled jobs which are run by the WhereScape scheduler seem to be a strangely separate animal. Unlike all other WhereScape objects, jobs cannot be added to WhereScape projects. Also, unlike all other objects, jobs also cannot be deleted using a WhereScape deployment application.""Project-based searching of data objects in the data warehouse browser needs to be improved.""Improve the object renaming ability (it works, but it could be more automated).""The solution can be a little more user-friendly on enterprise-level where people use it."
