Amazon Web Services - You name it they have it

What differentiates Amazon EC2 from other similar products?
This Amazon’s Cloud computing service is remarkable. They have over 165 services offered under just one platform. We are using plenty of their services and our experience with all of them is quite satisfactory. They have more or less 69 zones across the globe that simply means there will be very less frequency or chances of their services failure in any region of the globe.
What is your favorite aspect of this product?
The security of data is a big concern in either size of a company; be it small or large company. The data matters and it’s constantly being used and shared among employees. When you choose a cloud based system, the security threats are minimal and data sharing is easy. They also update their features to advanced ones in no time, which means the features are always ready and up to date.
What do you dislike most about this product?
There are tons of things in Amazon Web Services. It’s a whole world inside and you need to understand most of the things to operate it. It usually takes employees lots of time to get used to this software like at our company.
What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?
It really does not affect if you are a small firm or big one, it will cater the needs accordingly. However, the budget is a bit concerning here and if you can afford it you should get something really useful for your company’s future.
