AWS Cloud9 Reviews & Insights

AWS Cloud9 is being used as the cloud-based IDE by my team and part of the organization. The business problems it solves is the need for an integrated environment that allows for pair programming. This helps reduce bugs and other issues when it comes to writing some application code. Since it is cloud-based, we don't have to save the code and push it back and forth anymore, thus saving time.

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.

Our company is using many components of AWS for our ingestion data migration process, from an AS400 system to our Cloud Database through AWS and Snowflake Computing. AWS Cloud9 is being used to debug and implement code that is crucial for our ingestion build with our AWS CLI.

It is well suited for any size business. My company, which is a larger company, uses this with our various environments. AWS Cloud9 is a feature that we do not use very often, but only when we are changing our code. It is a good alternative to writing code on applications like command prompt for your processes.
