"The Backbone of Modern Cloud Infrastructure"
What do you like best about Amazon EC2?

Amazon Bedrock AgentCore : A set of tools to build, deploy, and securely operate AI agents at scale.

About Amazon : Amazon S3 Vectors (preview), Native vector support in object storage. Helpful for semantic search / retrieval workflows, etc. Works with Bedrock Knowledge Bases and OpenSearch.

Nova customization & HyperPod support: More control over AWS’s Nova models (in SageMaker etc.), with better SDK for security and flexibility.

Agentic AI tools + Marketplace category

AWS launched a category in its Marketplace for AI agents and tools (so you can find, buy, deploy them more easily).

New AWS Region: Expanding geographic footprint helps in lowering latency, meeting local data residency/regulatory needs, etc.

US Press Center Better performance & cost with chips & infra : Usage of new GPU types (NVIDIA Blackwell, etc.), improvements in cooling (liquid cooling IRHX), new server types, etc. All aiming at more efficient AI training & inference. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Amazon EC2?

Pricing Transparency – Costs can be tricky to estimate; a simpler, more predictable pricing model would help.

Learning Curve – The huge number of services and options can overwhelm new users; more guided workflows and simplified defaults would be great.

Console UI – While functional, the AWS Management Console can feel cluttered; a cleaner, more intuitive interface would improve usability.

Support Response Times – Premium support is excellent, but faster response at lower tiers would benefit small teams.

Service Integration Consistency – Sometimes features roll out unevenly across regions or services, which slows adoption. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
