Amazon Linux AMI (64-bit) Reviews & Product Details

Extremely compatible with the AWS and ec2 architecture and suitable for java based workloads and legacy applications. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The packages support in this version were outdated as it was near its end of support. So it became difficult to run particular application with updated packages and was not very well suitable for contanarized environments. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like the ability to be able to analyze and manage user data; you can generate keys for hosts being configured; the feature to add public keys to facilitate logins for administration has a part of preparing repositories which allows me to manage packages better; the integration with Amazon Elastic and Amazon EC2.

Too many protocols for package installation and too many runtimes for my taste, the only supported method to connect to instances is SSH. I wish were more methods; I would like more security updates. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The best thing about this is the speed of deployment. Our deployment agility has improved a lot and also we do not have to go through learning new methods to deploy everytime as the learning curve here is not steep and our teams loves it Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Sometime pricing transparency is limited so it becomes difficult to budget the resources for this. We deployed a 3rd party multi cloud dashboard to get rid of that problems Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Amazon Linux AMI is no longer in support however they have launched Amazon Linux AMI V2 which is more powerful, secure, robust and is promising for support up to 2023. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

No doubt Amazon Linux AMI v2 is more powerful than the older version, however, the older version was a bit more convenient in terms of UI and usability, it will take time to adapt to the new version. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like the capacity to have the option to break down and oversee client information. Using Amazon Linux AMI, I was able to create keys for the host. It allowed me to manage packages better. The element to add public keys to work with logins for organization has a piece of getting ready storehouses. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

All good. Awesome.. but with taking notes that it requires basic experience to operate it; overall no dislikes Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

In Amazon machine image that I really like that I easily to launch Amazon Linux server in any environment like on-premises and cloud that few step only after launch 2 minutes is running Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I don't like that Amazon Linux server connect to the third party software like putty. I suggest you any ony connect the server through the cmd and direct connect. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Using Amazon Linux AMI we can easily deploy Linux servers and virtual machines just by selecting the AMI as it will be predefined with certain softwares. Compared to other cloud platforms, Amazon has wide range of AMIs Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Nothing to dislike about it, thing is we need know basic Linux commands to operate in it, as it is not a GUI. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Highly optimized Amazon Machine Image for AWS. Seamlessly works on top of EC2 instances and integrates easily with other services like S3. It is included in AWS Free Tier version. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Documentation and support was not up to the mark. Even currently it's in maintenance support. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Like most of the EC2 instances, the Amazon Linux AMI is just another type. I usually launch the Ubuntu instances, but this is another option for those would prefer something different. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

No real dislikes. The only inconvenience is if I'm used to using a certain instance type with a specific OS, moving to something else could involve a learning curve. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
