AWS IoT CoreSencha
Likelihood to Recommend
AWS iot core is very useful if you need to scale very quickly for managing lots of devices without handling the underlying infrastructure cost. It can enable real time publishing and subscription of devices, monitoring and early stage intervention in case of unexpected issues while developing a full stack solution. However, healthcare scenarios where government intervention is needed should be developed and scaled by following the set of compliance policies of the government and the SLA requirements of the customer. Finally, it is great where you need to do data science research after anonymizing data

Sencha is suited for:
  • Enterprise applications that are really huge
  • Development happens on huge teams, on-shore an offshore model, one can divide and conquer by splitting in modules easily
  • Budget is not a constraint
It's not uited for:
  • Small budget applications
  • Not too many components are needed
  • Static or less dynamic content based websites
  • Turnaround time is shorter and developers have to spin something around in a short duration of time

Usability
I give AWS IoT Core's overall usability this rating because it is very easy to use and is enjoyed by all of our staff. The only problem is that it sometimes glitches and it freezes a lot. So overall, the usability of AWS IoT Core is very good, and we will continue to use it.

It covers all the aspects of IoT services required for an IoT company. It supports all the industry-wide protocols for secure data transmission and integrates powerful AL and ML technology for data analytics. For data storage, Amazon S3 is a great solution. Strong tech support and user community. Since it is widely used as compared to other products, there is an abundance of training and learning material on the web.
