AWS Outposts Reviews Summary
Author infoRatingReview Summary
Strategic Cloud Consultant at Shell4.5I find AWS Outposts valuable for seamlessly migrating on-premises applications with low latency, crucial for high-frequency businesses. The rack form factor simplifies deploying AWS services, though technical support and customizable pricing could improve. It's an effective on-premises AWS solution.
Design Engineer at Cyient Limited4.0I evaluated AWS Outposts for project-specific needs involving data management and public cloud solutions, noting its seamless integration with on-premises systems and cloud services. While capacity expansion would enhance flexibility, the offline functionality greatly impressed us.
Commercial Pre-Sales at Megazone4.5AWS Outposts is ideal for customers seeking a private cloud setup while leveraging AWS services. It offers on-premises connectivity without VPNs, but the implementation can be challenging due to high shipping and logistical costs from the US.
Data Engineer at Optimum Solutions5.0At my company, we use AWS Outposts primarily for running VMware jobs and managing local databases. We appreciate the seamless integration and support but wish for Glue services support and a more streamlined EMR solution for business-related queries.
DevOps Engineer at ZoomOps Technology5.0We use AWS Outposts to manage security groups for traffic ports, benefiting from native AWS services on-premises. The service is fully managed by AWS, but installation issues arise when different platforms are involved. No previous solutions were considered.
