What do you like best about Scalable Magento2 stack AMI?

Scalable Magento2 stack AMI is probably the easiest way to set up a Magento2 system. I like that I don't have to debug error after error while setting up the hosting environment. Instead, this is a one-click install and I am good to go with a working Magento2 installation. The best feature however is the scalability of the whole system provided by the AWS infrastructure. The 24 x 7 support from Amazon is also a large added benefit. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Scalable Magento2 stack AMI?

Sometimes, the system while setting up does not identify the correct database. I was able to quickly resolve it with help from AWS support, so it was only a minor hassle. Also, the AMI runs only on larger instances. So, the per-hour cost is a bit higher than when you setup from scratch on a Linux AMI. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Scalable Magento2 stack AMI solving and how is that benefiting you?

Usually I am forced to setup the Magento2 system from scratch in a Linux AMI. Here, I don't have to find and install the packages of the right versions. It is all contained within the AMI. This is a huge timesaver when spinning up instances for development purposes. Additionally, the AMI makes sure the right environment variables are set, as this is something you might miss if you setup manually. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
