Ease of creating APIs with ongoing updates needed for automation

AWS has made it easy for developers like me to create and manage GraphQL APIs. The ease of use is a main advantage, allowing even beginners to start from scratch and learn through AppSync. Before AWS, developing and managing APIs was quite complex. AWS provided AppSync, which assists developers and startup founders. Startups blooming everywhere benefit from this service, welcoming those who lack prior knowledge. When working on AWS, I notice that Amazon regularly implements new features. For instance, with the Lambda service, AWS is transitioning from an old editor to a new one. Similarly, AppSync frequently introduces updates and changes. This trend is making the user interface more accessible, even for individuals without a technical background. Additionally, the cost is attractive, as AWS operates on a pay-as-you-go basis. These factors make AppSync both easy to use and cost-effective.

Automation has transformed daily operations and now delivers faster, more accurate data flows

The best features in SnapLogic are the drag-and-drop interface which makes it easy to build data and application flows. No heavy coding is required, making it ideal for both technical and non-technical users. SnapLogic also offers pre-built snaps, real-time and batch processing, API management and integration, cloud and hybrid support, dashboarding and monitoring, error handling and retry mechanisms, scalability, security and governance, and transformation capabilities with built-in functions to clean and transform data, expressions, aggregations, and mappings. SnapLogic offers auto-mapping and smart schema detection as additional features. SnapLogic can detect schemas automatically, which helps when sources evolve or change, and this matters because there is less manual mapping work.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:

Pros

"Support for multiple data sources and formats is a fantastic feature."

"AWS has made it easy for developers like me to create and manage GraphQL APIs."

"Support for multiple data sources and formats is a fantastic feature."

"You can use other languages, such as Python, and easily connect to other systems."

"The connection with SOAP is the best feature."

"The vendor handles the maintenance of the solution"

"SnapLogic is an IPA tool that leverages a low code environment to connect to multiple sources, extract data, and store it in Azure data lake."

"By using snaps instead of functions in code, you can see the building blocks of the integration visually. This helps a lot."

"They are very good at building out new aspects according to customer requirements."

"Overall product rating is nine out of ten."

"SnapLogic is more user-friendly than Boomi in terms of debugging. You can move the mouse to a place, and it will record and show the data easily."

Cons

"In AppSync, assigning roles and permissions to APIs is necessary for accessing other AWS services. Automating this task when creating APIs would be beneficial."

"Moving to other clouds is impossible without significantly rearchitecting your applications."

"In AppSync, assigning roles and permissions to APIs is necessary for accessing other AWS services. Automating this task when creating APIs would be beneficial."

"Moving to other clouds is impossible without significantly rearchitecting your applications."

"The setup cost would be four or five. There would be only one point of improvement if the price could be lower."

"From the HR point of view, or for HR tech, improvement is required. A couple of connectors are not working with all the relevant APIs, and there is always a restriction in terms of fetching the data."

"One of the areas for improvement in SnapLogic is that the connectors for some of the applications should be more available in terms of testing in the dev environment. Another area for improvement is that the logging should be standardized, for example, the integration with an ELK stack should be required out-of-the-box, so you can ship the log and have it in the ELK stack. There should be integration with ELK stack for the log shipping."

"It needs some more snaps. I would like to see some of the features be changed in some of the snaps."

"If it is a huge volume of data, other traditional ETL tools such as Informatica and Talend can process millions and billions of records, while in SnapLogic, the Snaplex fails or it returns an error in terms of processing that huge volume of data."

"The dashboards regarding scheduled tasks need further improvement."

"They should expand in terms of features for SaaS-based market requirements in different sectors."

"One area for improvement in SnapLogic is the transparency in the flow of data. It needs to have more transparency. Right now, users only have a preview option at the end of any job flow, so at the end of any Snap Pack, there is a data preview option that lets you review the data and see how it's moving. What would make the solution better is more debugging and more access to change data from the preview panel or more functionality in terms of the preview option."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Licensing fees are paid on a monthly basis, and it is a pay-as-you-go model."

"They have pricing/usage tiers that are easy to move up or down."

"I used the free trial."

"SnapLogic is not expensive. It's reasonably priced."

"The pricing is okay."

"When comparing it with solutions like Apigee or MuleSoft, it still offers better value."

"By scaling the solution incrementally the cost is controlled and more beneficial to the client."

"From the ROI perspective, the price is extremely high"

"It is a higher initial cost than other easy-to-use integration apps."
