Sayed Basha - PeerSpot reviewer

Reliable cloud workloads have run cost-effectively and now support microservices and databases
One frustration I encounter is that Amazon Linux 2 AMI (amazon linux 2) | Support by SupportedImages does not support running on-premises. If it had features available for on-premises operations, it would greatly benefit organizations like the banking projects I have worked with, where data security is crucial and many critical applications still run on-premises. If Amazon Linux 2 AMI (amazon linux 2) | Support by SupportedImages offered this support, it would provide great competition with Red Hat Linux in the market. Regarding needed improvements, I believe Amazon could enhance its documentation, particularly for older versions. I sometimes face issues when installing the CloudWatch agent to gather OS-level metrics due to inadequate documentation. I believe I have covered everything regarding improvements, and I think the points I mentioned are sufficient.

Centralized cloud views have improved visibility and simplify tracking of connected resources
I think the dashboard could be a little more user-friendly, especially for people who are using the platform for the first time. Sometimes, finding specific information in a large cloud setup can take extra time. It would also be good to have more customization options for dashboards and reports. In the next release, I would like to see better cost alerts, more detailed usage reports, and easier ways to identify unused resources. These improvements would make Hyperglance more convenient for daily use and help teams manage cloud resources more efficiently.

Pros

"Amazon Linux 2 AMI (amazon linux 2) | Support by SupportedImages has positively impacted my organization because the default run already has so many workload infrastructures running for the last five years with no vulnerability found and everything works smoothly."
"Regarding using Amazon Linux 2 AMI (amazon linux 2) | Support by SupportedImages for workloads like web and backend servers, microservices, and database hosting, I find that the main advantage is its compatibility."
"This workflow helps me in my day-to-day work by making things faster, more reliable, and easier to manage."

Cons

"I did not see a return on investment from Amazon Linux 2 AMI (amazon linux 2) | Support by SupportedImages; I did not get any benefit from it."
"Amazon Linux 2 AMI (amazon linux 2) | Support by SupportedImages can be improved by addressing the basic thing which was on EC2 SSM role by default at the OS level, because so many times we need to install SSM agent on our server levels."
"However, I withhold two points due to its reliance on older versions and kernel, along with the necessity of Amazon Linux extras for newer versions of languages and tools."
"The UI can still feel a bit cluttered and sluggish when client accounts approach the resource limit, so better default filtering out of the box would help."
"I think the dashboard could be a little more user-friendly, especially for people who are using the platform for the first time."
"It can be on the higher side for smaller teams, and it can sometimes overlap with existing tech stack, so be mindful of those things when evaluating budget."
"I would like to see more detailed filtering options for large AWS environments, especially when searching for specific EC2 instances, security groups, or network dependencies."
