It is not the cheapest service and needs to be monitored thoroughly. Tough beginning steps and need internal capacity to work with Appsync.

it is a powerful tool for building and deploying serverless applications. It is a good option to handle complex queries and real-time updates, and it integrates seamlessly with other AWS services.

Pros

The service integrates seamlessly with other AWS services, making it easy to connect to data sources such as DynamoDB, Lambda, and Elasticsearch.

Cons

AppSync can be difficult to set up for beginners, and the learning curve for GraphQL can be steep for those new to the technology. Additionally, the service is not as mature as some of the other offerings from AWS,
