- 8. AWS - PROS AND CONS PROS: • AWS currently has the highest number of services and options available, lending itself to the most opportunities and satisfying most needs. • Elastic Compute Cloud (EC2) allows you to increase or decrease storage as needed; between this and the pay-as-you-go plans you only pay for what you use with AWS. • AWS allows you to choose the operating system, programming language, web application platform, database and other services. CONS: • AWS elastic load balancer (ELB) is not equipped to handle as many requests as it receives. However, you can purchase another service, ELB with AutoScaling, to counteract. • AWS lacks customer support, gearing toward a more technically savvy group of consumers and/or those with access to tech support. • The number of choices can be confusing to those who may not speak the language of technology.
- 9. AZURE - PROS AND CONS PROS: • Has the capability for developers and users to easily create, maintain and deploy applications • Fully scalable, offers open access across multiple frameworks, languages and tools • Comprised of many different infrastructures and service modules: big data, backup and recover, web, mobile, development and testing, media, storage, identity and access management CONS: • Customer service is confusing and data is hosted globally. If you have data restrictions where it must be housed in a certain country, you must verify/specify with Microsoft. • Comparatively expensive • You are charged extra for paying as you go (versus paying in blocks of $100.00)
