What is our primary use case?
What is most valuable?
The solution is very easy to use and integrations are very smooth.
The serverless model only charges you for data that is consumed.
What needs improvement?
The solution should include a better API for query services so that data can be dumped and queried directly in customer's products.
The API should include some sort of data visualization that can be plugged into applications. We had to use QuickSight to help us with the visualization.
For how long have I used the solution?
I have been using the solution for ten months.
