The solution improves ETL performance but faces challenges with version upgrades
For ETL, I feel the performance is excellent. If I create jobs in a standard way, the performance is great, and maintenance is also seamless. It is serverless, so I do not need to worry about other integrations. It runs on a serverless VM. Glue services from AWS are regularly upgraded with new properties and functions. We use PySpark and other frameworks, which help customize our ETL process in a standard way. During our process, we utilized the typical SQL ITIL process standard in Glue-oriented ETL services, which helped us improve performance and time. AWS running time, mostly during the morning, saved us time compared to the old ETL method. There are many email notifications once a job is successful or fails, and we get notifications using SES or AWS's Simple Notification Service. Glue is integrated with both email alerts, and we are responsible for managing the full data journey from end to end.

A well-established product that meets all our specifications in terms of usability
In the initial stage when we went with Data Integrator Cloud Service it was primarily the nativity factor that was key for us. Having a single vendor supporting the entire suite of applications, and the ability to configure activities and direct integration with various other Oracle products, were the main attractive features within ODI. This is a well-established product that's good to have if you hold an Oracle suite of applications. It meets all our specifications in terms of usability.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Its user interface is quite good; you just need to choose some options to create a job in AWS Glue, and the code-generation feature is also useful because if you don't want to customize it and simply want to read a file and store the data in the database, it can generate the code for you."
"For ETL, I feel the performance is excellent."
"The best thing about AWS Glue is its scalability and how easy it is to process a large amount of data."
"AWS Glue is very quick to start without cold starts, unlike AWS Lambda."
"We no longer had to worry much about infrastructure management because AWS Glue is serverless, and Amazon takes care of the underlying infrastructure."
"The price is very good; it's enticing people to move to the cloud."
"The most valuable feature of AWS Glue is scalability."
"In my opinion, it is one of the best tools in the market for ETL processes because of the fact that you pay as you use, which separates it from other big tools such as PowerCenter, Pentaho Data Integration, and Talend."
"Oracle Data Integrator helps us build tables and data marts and allows us to schedule them daily, for nearly real-time data warehousing."
"This is a well-established product that's good to have if you hold an Oracle suite of applications."
"The data is stored in the cloud, making it easy to download data simultaneously into multiple smaller servers, effectively downsizing the process."
"The most valuable thing to me is its simplicity. A person with zero knowledge can also develop the integration without having extensive technology knowledgebase. They can also work on creating their own integration."
"It's on the cloud, so it's scalable and quite easy to work with."
"The solution is easy to manage and offers good integration. You can run all the tasks one by one which is really helpful, and pick the day and time to do so."
"The solution is very stable and it's great once you get it working correctly."
"Oracle integration cloud has got the adapters for all their products, which makes the integration a little faster and makes it easier to implement the integration quickly."
 

Cons

"AWS Glue's error handling is difficult."
"If there's a cluster-related configuration, we have to make worker notes, which is quite a headache when processing a large amount of data."
"It is not clear how the partition discovery would have been affected by more data coming in."
"I haven't looked into Glue in terms of seeking out flaws. I've not come across missing features."
"The solution could be cheaper. The price of the solution is an area that needs improvement."
"Not enough resources or services are available to run managed Spark jobs within the solution."
"The crucial problem with AWS Glue is that it only works with AWS."
"The solution's visual ETL tool is of no use for actual implementation."
"It can be made much easier for users. They should be allowed to easily monitor the data extraction and flow, allowing them to observe real-time data flow within the software, making the process straightforward."
"I've found technical support not very effective. They should work to improve their services."
"I would like to see different cloud adapters or connectors in case of integration. When you have Oracle to Oracle, they are good. They have really good connectors, but if it is a different ERP, like Obsidian, that is where they are faced with problems in OIC."
"The solution could be improved when it comes to bulk uploading; there are problems with it when you hit the upper limit."
"This is an expensive solution compared to other products on the market."
"The pricing could be more competitive."
"Licensing costs for this Oracle solution are expensive. ODI forms an integral part of the overall PaaS solution and becomes a kind of backbone for that particular service, which is painful because from a PaaS perspective, the licensing costs just shoot off the roof."
"The solution is expensive."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The solution's pricing is based on DPUs so it is a good idea to optimize use or it can get expensive."
"If you are using the solution for an enterprise business, it will be expensive."
"It is an expensive product. I rate its pricing a nine out of ten."
"I rate the tool's pricing a four out of ten."
"This solution is affordable and there is an option to pay for the solution based on your usage."
"AWS Glue follows a pay-as-you-go model, wherein the cost of the data you use will be counted as a monthly bill."
"I would rate the solution a six or seven on a scale of one to ten, with ten being very expensive. Specifically, I rate its pricing a six out of ten."
"AWS Glue uses a pay-as-you-go approach which is helpful. The price of the overall solution is low and is a great advantage."
"The price is competitive compared to Boomi which is much higher."
