What do you like best?
As compared to all other container images, the size of the alpine image is significantly less that means the alpine docker image is light in weight
What do you dislike?
some of the Linux tools/applications not supported
What problems are you solving with the product? What benefits have you realized?
earlier my image was taking more storage because of that, we needed to add external volume in our Linux machine, but once we moved all containers with alpine images, that issue resolved
Recommendations to others considering the product:
yes, anyone who wants to migrate their application from VMs based to the container than I will suggest using the alpine image as a base image

Works fine
Works as expected. Had some issues to ssh into the VM at the beginning.
What I missed was that the user is 'ec2-user'.
Setup a separate security group for ssh on my IP and it worked like charme.
No access
Concur with previous; no way to login with key, password, etc. Was unable to use at all, but had to pay for 1h of use.
Not able to SSH
Even after binding a key and opening a PORT for ssh, it asks for password for root user and no default password works for that.
