Handling complexities challenges with data processing while visualizations enhance monitoring and debugging
In terms of data handling capabilities with Amazon OpenSearch Service, they can be complex and managing data in comparison to other SIM solutions is a major drawback, as it is very hard to handle the data. We definitely want Amazon to optimize the data handling aspect, as ElasticSearch is the parent of OpenSearch. If Amazon makes changes in OpenSearch, it would be very useful for us, making it more user-friendly with simple buttons to perform tasks.
