AWS Cloud9 vs. Rapid SQL

AWS Cloud9 is great for product engineering and coding where you must take time to pair program and code in a specific isolated environment. It is entirely cloud based so there's no worry about saving and data consistency. It is all hosted on the Amazon Web Services cloud. It is less appropriate for more general workflows that don't require a specific cloud instance.

Rapid SQL can be used from our notebooks connecting to a SQL Server allowing us to test performance issues and provide insight on how to fix them.

• Great, fast interface - There is a large list of shortcuts that make development on this IDE an experience that can sometimes even compare to something native.
• Integrated debugging/troubleshooting - AWS Cloud9 has integrated debugging tools that are quite well-designed.
• Lambda integrations - Cloud9 allows you to instantly run and maintain Lambda functions. It's probably the best IDE for developing on AWS Lambda.

• Robust
• Simple to use

• According to the project that is being executed it can become slow.
• It does not have the basic text manipulators.
• Shared terminals sometimes take a while to display.

• User base support is not as great as MySQL, SQL Server, and Oracle.
• The included editor could be refined. I notice some of the reserved words were not highlighted.

The interface for Cloud9 needs some improvement. It is simply not as powerful and intelligent as a local text editor would be and thus it lacks the capabilities of fast filling when coding. Otherwise, I think it has a fair interface that they have tried mimicking an IDE.

Customer support is managed by the Cloud support team. I won't be able to comment on details, but it's fast.

Support is outstanding and gets answers quickly when confronted at a client site with an issue.

S3 is a great service for storing unstructured data. It is cheap and us an user we don't have to care about scaling. Amazon S3 is a managed service. We use it for avery simple projects in our organization.

The IT department uses it so we adopted the software. I would have chosen SQL Server myself.

• This software has been really useful for our company since thanks to the fact that you can work together with other colleagues in the same code, it is much easier to advance in the development of projects and thus be able to make your delivery in a much shorter time.
• Because it provides all the necessary tools to develop projects, there is a great saving of time and costs.
• It is easy to use so any user can use it and this makes it possible to streamline each project much faster and more if you do not necessarily have to be in the company to advance in them, and this is thanks to the fact that it can be used from anywhere with internet access.

• A great debugger that saved me a lot of time
• The editor was not very user-friendly as some of the reserved words need to be highlighted
• It's not as costly compared to Oracle, so it's a great value product
