We performed a comparison between Actian Ingres and Databricks based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out what your peers are saying about Snowflake Computing, Oracle, Teradata and others in Data Warehouse."The deployment of our solution across a number of servers using Ingres .NET has meant that we can protect the database server behind a highly secure firewall and deploy the front end solutions on a normal web server."
"It's easy to increase performance as required."
"The load distribution capabilities are good, and you can perform data processing tasks very quickly."
"Databricks is a unified solution that we can use for streaming. It is supporting open source languages, which are cloud-agnostic. When I do database coding if any other tool has a similar language pack to Excel or SQL, I can use the same knowledge, limiting the need to learn new things. It supports a lot of Python libraries where I can use some very easily."
"Databricks covers end-to-end data analytics workflow in one platform, this is the best feature of the solution."
"Databricks makes it really easy to use a number of technologies to do data analysis. In terms of languages, we can use Scala, Python, and SQL. Databricks enables you to run very large queries, at a massive scale, within really good timeframes."
"Automation with Databricks is very easy when using the API."
"It can send out large data amounts."
"It's very simple to use Databricks Apache Spark."
"The ability to reset the log file without stopping the DBMS would be helpful for us."
"Implementation of Databricks is still very code heavy."
"Can be improved by including drag-and-drop features."
"CI/CD needs additional leverage and support."
"There is room for improvement in visualization."
"This solution only supports queries in SQL and Python, which is a bit limiting."
"I have seen better user interfaces, so that is something that can be improved."
"There should be better integration with other platforms."
"Some of the error messages that we receive are too vague, saying things like "unknown exception", and these should be improved to make it easier for developers to debug problems."
