Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"One of the most valuable features is storage scaling."
"Aurora's compatibility with MySQL or PostgreSQL benefited our database management. The migration from on-premise MySQL to Aurora was similar, so we didn't need to change our source code."
"Aurora's features that I find the most beneficial include its database backup strategy, performance options, and input-output operations."
"They now offer some really good scaling and limitless versions that are available to me, which I find very impressive."
"One of the standout features of Amazon Aurora is that we do not need to maintain disaster recovery or manage availability zones."
"We had better control over the parameters that we could tweak in terms of intermediate storage and better indexing capabilities."
"Amazon Aurora stands out for its ease of use in a managed environment, inbuilt security, continuous backups, numerous read replicas, multi-region automated replication, and seamless integration with other AWS services."
"Aurora is a key pillar for us, offering performance and availability."
"Tibero is very easy to setup and maintain."
"Tibero is a relational database management system, which supports disaster recovery, active cluster, active storage, etc."
"Tibero uses Hyper-Threading architecture, which is incredibly fast."
"The most valuable feature is compatibility with the Oracle database."
 

Cons

"While Amazon Aurora meets your current scaling and storage needs, there is room for improvement in cryptography and scalability compared to other databases."
"A challenge I noticed is during migration from PostgreSQL RDS to Amazon Aurora. There are technical challenges, such as the inability to provision the database using a PostgreSQL snapshot directly."
"It would have been helpful if they had provided some benchmarking numbers."
"Room for improvement might be in the UI, integrations, or data working capabilities for better user experience."
"The product's distributed query process for MySQL needs improvement."
"In Oracle, tools like Veridata allow for comparing databases and certifying data accuracy, even offering repair capabilities, which are missing in Aurora. There should be a similar comparison tool in Aurora."
"There are tuning challenges."
"It is a bit costly. The features are quite good, and I wouldn't say it requires any technical improvements. But from a cost perspective, some clients wouldn't go for Aurora because of that."
"The knowledge base is quite small and should be expanded."
"In PL/SQL code, there is a scope of improvement. We expect more PL/SQL packages should be included in the next release."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"It is quite expensive."
"There is no need to buy a license for the product. We can pay as per the use case."
"The price could be lower compared to its competitors."
"The tool’s pricing depends on the instance type. For cost optimization purposes, we use the result instance category."
"I would rate the pricing a six out of ten, with ten being expensive."
"It is an expensive solution."
"The price of Tibero is cheaper than that of Oracle."
"The overall costs are very low compared to Oracle."
