Visual planning has transformed how our teams document aws architecture and estimate costs
The best features Cloudcraft offers include visual AWS architecture, the ability to create professional AWS diagrams quickly, significant time savings during solution design, cost estimation, and having estimated infrastructure costs directly within the architecture diagram. Cloudcraft also makes collaboration easier as architecture diagrams can be shared across infrastructure teams. AWS best practice visualization is there, encouraging better architecture design by making it easy to visualize high availability, multi-AZ deployment, public versus private subnets, and security layers. Creating architecture documentation that previously required several hours can now be completed much more quickly. Architecture design and documentation have had the biggest impact on my team. These are part of our day-to-day work that were time-consuming previously, and now they are easy to accomplish.

Containerization has accelerated testing cycles and consistently reduced time to market
Docker on Ubuntu 18.04 LTS is a very mature product, and I don't think there is a lot of improvement that they need to do on their end. The Docker team is coming up with new features, and integration with the IDE, for example, would be amazing. Support on Windows is not so great from Docker, so that is something that they could examine. I chose nine out of ten for Docker on Ubuntu 18.04 LTS because I think they could improve a little more on optimization. It sometimes demands a lot of RAM and computing power, so that is one area that the Docker team could improve upon.
