We used Cloud9 in a large project with multiple developers and with many integrations with AWS tools. It really had simplified the team work.

Pros

Pair programming is very easy to implement. Command line tab is shared between all the developers. All usually and must-have functions of a typical IDE are presents.

Cons

We use Cloud9 when we have to develop projects on AWS ecosystem. For small and fast daily tasks using a local IDE is probably the best choice.

Alternatives Considered

PhpStorm

Reasons for Switching to AWS Cloud9

Integration into AWS and simple pair programming capability.

Cloud9 is your cloud IDE for your code hosted on AWS

Reviewed on 2021/08/03

Overall a good tool for editing, debugging and deploying your AWS application on cloud.

Overall a good tool for editing, debugging and deploying your AWS application on cloud.

Pros

It runs on cloud, that means you don't need any IDE specific configuration, everything comes prebuilt in cloud9. Also, it supports many languages like php, js etc. It is used for easy deployment of your code into EC2 in instances. Also, other team mates can collaborate and make changes to the code and instance hosted on ec2 through cloud9

Cons

It is mainly used when your code is deployed in AWS ec2 instances. Otherwise, we use our normal IDE and console to edit and deploy applications

Overall, AWS Cloud9 provides a robust, browser-based development environment with robust AWS integration and real-time workflow features. While simple and cost-effective, its functionality can be inconsistent, and it can feel limiting if you are not fully invested in the AWS ecosystem.

Pros

AWS Cloud9 is an easy-to-use, browser-based IDE that makes coding easy and collaborative. It provides preconfigured environments for easy integration of AWS services and includes a built-in terminal. Plus, it’s cost-effective with a tier that’s available for free.

Cons

AWS Cloud9 can be slow on large projects and has limited customization options. It is heavily tied to AWS, which may not be right for everyone, and extended functionality can increase costs.

AWS: Where cloud services and Data Management Unite

AWS is the best cloud service platform in the market and what makes me say that is how AWS provides everything in one place like pre-installed libraries like NumPy, pandas, matplotlib, etc. and one can start a project instantly. Cloud9 can be integrated with data services like S3 and RDS which makes the work easier by having data sets stored on AWS

Pros

I would say the access to the main reason I'm going to stick with it since, I can connect and integrate with data stores, warehousing, and relational databases in one place I can fairly see that it stands out. The main features I would mention are collaboration feature where others can connect, the environment can be customized as per requirement and Integration with different tools

Cons

what I did not like about cloud9 is that it does not support GPU which could make to use other AWS tools to get work done. Cost is still being applied when the use of this product is idle which can be minimized.
