I will directly compare AWS with the previous product my company was using GCP. I personally prefer AWS over GCP is because in comparison with gcp aws has a lot to offer as in terms of features and services. It is robust,secure and as a NodeJs developer me and my team have achieved more scalablity by integrating AWS to our project.
What is your favorite aspect of this product?
According to me the best feature is the AWS Ec2 servers, because of there secure and agile in nature, we can order ec2 accoring to our requirement at any time and you can scale upward and downscale the server at any time this is probably the best feature of AWS
