It was a very new and exciting experience of using blockchain in which we were trying to create are own web3 application to enhance our current setup as we wanted our to be accessed over by multiple users either via API call or testing and use case was fulfilled by the service. As we didn't have much deep level knowledge, it was easy to understand and implement.

Amazon Managed Blockchain Likes & Dislikes

Like

It is totally managed by AWS and its scalability, patching and monitoring is a plus point for new users. As it is under the AWS umbrella, managing the security is quite easy to keep the application safe. Deployment is very easy because of the managed state of the service. Otherwise, setting up a self-hosted platform can lead to multiple issues, which we didn't want to face.

Like

The simplification it provides for the development with secure, scalable infrastructure and integration.

Like

ease of use for sure, typical Amazon layout makes it easy to navigate, low cost for an Amazon service

Dislike

Costing was one of the major concerns we had about using the service. As it is a managed service customisation is limited which is understood. It is an AWS managed service so it can lead to some issues while integrating with outside scope.

Dislike

It can be costly for smaller-scale projects or developers.

Dislike

takes a few people to get it off the ground, blockchain is still new so some confusing pain points, overall a good product but you need to really understand blockchain technology to utilize it all
