We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"The most valuable aspect is its ability to provide interfaces for events.""AWS Outposts brings native AWS services, infrastructure, and API to our on-premises data center or co-location facilities.""Outposts allows you to isolate your private environment from the public cloud provider while enabling almost all the features that are available on public cloud services. That is the beauty of this service. It's an infrastructure that you can put in your data center and seamlessly connect to the public cloud.""If you compare with the full bundle of these services, you can see the difference. This is enough for these locations in private data centers. Because the main reasons why the customers want to have it on their side are for the low latency and the security of their critical data.""I think the keys to success for the solution is the easy-to-use user interface and the fact that the development team really likes the platform.""The most valuable aspect is that it comes in a rack form factor which makes it incredibly easy to use and deploy various AWS services."

"The Google Anthos feature I find the most valuable is the easy of use. In Google Anthos, you don't need to move along too many screens and so on. The interface is really helpful and understanding of the tool comes easily."

Cons
"Depending on the installation process, we have found some bugs and issues with the solution when the same platform is not used.""It would be beneficial to have the option for capacity expansion.""Also, it would be beneficial if AWS allowed for more granular and customizable pricing options.""The platform needs to spend more time investing in strengthening its governance and information tools and consider the real needs of its customers.""Outposts supports elastic coordinator services, but not elastic container services, which is the native service for containers in AWS. That is something missing in this product.""The pricing model needs improvement because right now it's very expensive. All of these solutions are very expensive and it prevents other customers or owners of data centers from buying it."

"The initial Google Anthos setup is not easy. Nothing is truly easy in the Google Anthos world."

Pricing and Cost Advice
  • "The pricing of Outposts needs to be evaluated from the standpoint of what's cost-effective at your company: How are you going to use it? How much money will it save for your products or applications? Is it worth it? I would say it's probably too expensive for small or medium-sized companies. However, big companies might find it to be highly cost-effective depending on their respective cloud strategies."
  • "While the longer-term pricing is suitable for enterprise contracts, it can be on the higher side, especially when organizations don't utilize all the services included in the bundles."
  • "AWS Outposts is a cheap solution."

    Overview

    AWS Outposts bring native AWS services, infrastructure, and operating models to virtually any data center, co-location space, or on-premises facility. You can use the same APIs, the same tools, the same hardware, and the same functionality across on-premises and the cloud to deliver a truly consistent hybrid experience. Outposts can be used to support workloads that need to remain on-premises due to low latency or local data processing needs.

    Anthos lets you build and manage modern hybrid applications on existing on-premises investments or in the public cloud. Built on open source technologies pioneered by Google - including Kubernetes, Istio, and Knative - Anthos enables consistency between on-premises and cloud environments. Anthos helps accelerate application development and strategically enable your business with transformational technologies like service mesh, containers, and microservices.
