Cons
"Billing and technical support should be better. There is a steep learning curve as well.""It is a bit difficult to find things because you don't have a single pane of glass or dashboard for every resource.""There could be better documentation for specific services.""The performance insights and VPC flow logs should be in the form of GUI or dashboards. The solution needs to work on integration with the transit gateway and multiple accounts.""They could improve the platform's ability to establish VPN connections to interact with resources outside the network.""The solution could improve its price.""This solution is not fully compatible with every vendor that we use regarding firewalls and networking equipment. They provide you with the option and details on how to configure this on your premises but it would be good to have an easier way to do this.""The tool is not scalable."

More Amazon Virtual Private Cloud Cons →

"The solution should include better and seamless integration with other AWS services, like Amazon S3 data storage and EC2 compute resources.""The main drawback to using AWS Batch would be the cost. It will be more expensive in some cases than using an HPC. It's more amenable to cases where you have spot requirements.""When we run a lot of batch jobs, the UI must show the history.""AWS Batch needs to improve its documentation."

    Overview

    Amazon Virtual Private Cloud (Amazon VPC) lets you provision a logically isolated section of the AWS Cloud where you can launch AWS resources in a virtual network that you define. You have complete control over your virtual networking environment, including selection of your own IP address range, creation of subnets, and configuration of route tables and network gateways. You can use both IPv4 and IPv6 in your VPC for secure and easy access to resources and applications.

    AWS Batch enables developers, scientists, and engineers to easily and efficiently run hundreds of thousands of batch computing jobs on AWS. AWS Batch dynamically provisions the optimal quantity and type of compute resources (e.g., CPU or memory optimized instances) based on the volume and specific resource requirements of the batch jobs submitted. With AWS Batch, there is no need to install and manage batch computing software or server clusters that you use to run your jobs, allowing you to focus on analyzing results and solving problems. AWS Batch plans, schedules, and executes your batch computing workloads across the full range of AWS compute services and features, such as Amazon EC2 and Spot Instances.
