We performed a comparison between Amazon EKS and Rancher Labs based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Container Management solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."EKS provides autoscaling functionality."
"We do not have to do a lot of administration, such as create virtual machines, or worry about our controllers or nodes going down because the solution is fully managed by Amazon."
"I like its auto-scale feature very much."
"I like the scalability they're currently providing. Integration was very easy. It was a good experience."
"I can use the autoscaling feature to manage and scale up infrastructure."
"It is a scalable solution."
"The solution's Autoscaler option allows for an increase in worker notes whenever particular thresholds are exceeded."
"AWS cloud services are flexible and have thorough documentation. AWS also has data centers all over the world."
"The product is simple to use for a beginner."
"The solution is stable."
"The tool's UI is very convenient enough to help you manage multiple clusters in the cloud or the company, making it a product with which you can manage different clusters and locations."
"The most valuable feature of the solution is that it is an open-source solution that is easy to deploy."
"The most valuable feature of Rancher Labs is its user interface, which makes it easier to work with containers and deployment."

"Amazon EKS is predominately public. However, the government has started to have a lot of interest in Kubernetes and is receiving more education on Kubernetes and Amazon EKS.

"The goal and idea behind microservices are to always be available and capable of handling any load, no matter how many requests come through...All of these services are great, but I also think it would be useful to have the same technology available in a miniature resource size, enabling the same applications and services to run on a small machine."
"I'm having difficulty getting my AWS clusters to communicate with my local machine."
"The connectivity could be better."
"The documentation part of the product is an area of concern that needs to be made easier from an improvement perspective."
"They should improve application visibility along with code visibility."
"If you have poor infrastructure, you will have issues with the tool."
