Solid product and service delivery by excellent engineering organization

They use docker to deploy containerized infrastructure as code solutions that can be rapidly created through our CI/ CD pipelines. This allows us rapid deployment of features into Production without having people in DevOps spend years building out such systems from scratch (it's hard). Their management console looks simple enough; it has some nice graphs you might want if your team wants metrics about their fleet size etc - I guess this could also have something like Nagios plugins? But my only

Pros
  • The ability to deploy your application across various environments e.g., Dev/QA/Prod
  • GUI and API interface
  • Easy integration with other tools e.g., Jenkins, TeamCity, etc
  • Easy deployment of containers using docker
  • Easy to use
Cons
  • The team can't be more fast when it's not working
  • Support

buoYance is awesome and worth checking for

The best feature of buoyancy which I like most about its toolkit was it's ability to allow us easy access into our AWS environments without having too many tools or configurations required by other similar products we were using at that time (such as CloudFormation). It also allowed me good control over my environment with ease since everything can be done via code/config files instead from console UI itself - so no need if you're not comfortable in writing scripts etc., just use your IDE +…

Pros
  • I like the fact that it's a toolkit which allows me to easily manage my AWS environments, specifically in regards to my VPC instances and their security and access control
Cons
  • I dislike the fact that it's unable to do more complex things such as creating new VPC instances etc
