What differentiates Amazon Kinesis from other similar products?

Improvements are needed for the various ways log data is shown and the unusual IP addresses. The dashboard and user interface both require updating and enhancement. The apps you use on AWS and Amazon CloudWatch monitor the AWS cloud storage. Demand tracking is aided by tracking each request along with the IP address.

What is your favorite aspect of this product?

We can set up specific alarms and, if necessary, use them to send out alerts. It is recommended to automate using defined standards. Stopping or lowering an instance when the CPU is not being used as much will help you save money and cut down on wastage. This is in keeping with our strategy for maximizing resources. Based on the CPU Utilization Metrics, we can set alarms. We may check the email bounce rate and deliverability.

What do you dislike most about this product?

Even though there is a pay-per-usage option, most users lament the high costs associated with managing many EC2 instances. It can be challenging to set up alerts and report templates. It does not provide instance memory measurements. It is not allowed to modify the dashboard. There is no transaction tracking. The billing cost is relatively high for some metrics, like SNS & SES Monitoring.

What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?

The main issues that Amazon CloudWatch addresses are finding a location where we can view all of our AWS cloud services in one place and configuring alarm systems. And behavior must be taken if a worrying situation arises, such as launching another instance if CPU usage is too high for an extended period.

Pros

  • Helps Innovate
  • Continually Improving Product
  • Reliable
  • Enables Productivity

An innovative public cloud platform

Likeliness to Recommend

10 /10

What differentiates Amazon Kinesis from other similar products?

The AWS console is also a fantastic feature because it is safe and has much information about our AWS accounts. I can use it to manage billings, seed saving and recommendation plans, view and access detailed usage reports, and even download them in various formats, including PDF.

What is your favorite aspect of this product?

The AWS integration process is quick and easy; I can complete it independently without problems. On the other hand, we had no trouble deploying this platform. The business support we receive from them is the greatest on the market, and I couldn't be happier about it. I can access an on-demand feature that costs me money only when I use it.

What do you dislike most about this product?

It's more complicated to deploy and integrate this cloud platform. On this front, we need some expertise. Although numerous third-party applications are available for integration, the procedure is awkward. It needs someone with a strong technical understanding to conduct the integration because it is a fairly difficult component of AWS.

What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?

AWS services provide excellent support, and everyone knows that Amazon's customer care is perfect. Additionally, they provide various help options, including premium assistance, business support, and many other kinds of support. RWS may be scaled up or down at any time due to the flexibility offered by this cloud platform.

Pros

  • Helps Innovate
  • Continually Improving Product
  • Performance Enhancing
  • Trustworthy
