How Alternatives Are Selected
1. AWS Lambda

By Amazon Web Services (AWS)

What can I say? AWS Lambda popularized the serverless paradigm and leads the space. It’s reliable, affordable, and relatively easy to use. I do wish the supported Node.js versions would follow the current release version more closely. The Lambda Node.js version is what our team standardizes on for any Node-related projects, and Lamda’s lagging behind the latest Node version often limits the tools and features we can use across the board. Any other criticism would be about the overall difficulty and complexity of integrating and managing AWS services.Read all insights and reviews for AWS Lambda

4. Docker

By Docker

Docker has been a game changer for how we manage and deploy our applications. Once it's set up properly, it removes so many of the "it works on my machine" issues by letting everyone run code in the exact same environment. We've used it heavily for app development and microservices testing across different operating systems, and the consistency it provides is unmatched. Using Docker with Kubernetes is like the cherry on top. Orchestrating the containers to scale up with K8 Pods is the biggest upgrade we could've done to our infrastructure for high traffic, high availability applications.Read all insights and reviews for Docker

Our team mostly works with Windows machines, PowerShell and the Microsoft environment, hence the .NET platform is a great extension for us to have. Microsoft invests a lot into their ecosystem with M365, Graph API and Azure cloud based offerings. We find it very useful and handy to integrate the MS products with .NET and use it for web and desktop app development.Read all insights and reviews for Microsoft .NET platform
