I feel one of the worst API tooling right now are the ones that come with AWS. Everything from the AWS Console's UX and accessibility to Dynamo's APIs are just a nightmare to understand and deal with day to day.
- madelinecameron 10y agoI don't understand why AWS' free-tier requires putting things into a VPC. It is a complete turn-off. It took me days to figure how to configure it correctly to access it through SSH without following a guide that builds out some giant infrastructure. It should just be one-click to throw everything up that I need and hide all of that extra config behind a wall that I can access if I want / need to.
- blakeyrat 10y agoIt used to be much better. It's gotten worse and worse as they've just added on more and more "products" with very little integration to the "products" already present, and with widely varying quality. (There was a HN post just yesterday about their missteps on the Lambda product.) It feels like AWS has just kind of mutated organically with absolutely no kind of central planning.
