Integrates diverse data sources and streamlines ETL processes effectively
Regarding potential areas of improvement for Azure Data Factory, there is a need for better data transformation, especially since many people are now depending on DataBricks more for connectivity and data integration. Azure Data Factory should consider how to enhance integration or filtering for more transformations, such as integrating with Spark clusters. I am satisfied with Azure Data Factory so far, but I suggest integrating some AI functionality to analyze data during the transition itself, providing insights such as null records, common records, and duplicates without running a separate pipeline or job. The monitoring tools in Azure Data Factory are helpful for optimizing data pipelines; while the current feature is adequate, they can improve by creating a live dashboard to see the online process, including how much percentage has been completed, which will be very helpful for people who are monitoring the pipeline.
Peeyush Chouksey - PeerSpot reviewer
Allows us to integrate different cloud services with different applications
It's lacking a lot of mapping features that Oracle OSB and SOA have. It needs to evolve a lot. When it comes to mapping, you are quite restricted. If you have to use a specific, typical function, you need to do a Java callout or something. OSB has a lot of features they are using like Java APIs because it's on-premises.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The most valuable feature is the ease in which you can create an ETL pipeline."
"The solution is okay."
"The solution can scale very easily."
"Azure Data Factory is a low code, no code platform, which is helpful."
"The most valuable feature of this solution would be ease of use."
"I am one hundred percent happy with the stability."
"When it comes to our business requirements, this solution has worked well for us. However, we have not stretched it to the limit."
"The most valuable aspect is the copy capability."
"Having a single vendor supporting the entire 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."
"It's on the cloud, so it's scalable and quite easy to work with."
"Oracle integration cloud has got the adapters for all their products, which makes integration faster."
"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."
"Oracle Data Integrator helps us build tables and data marts and allows us to schedule them daily, for nearly real-time data warehousing."
"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."
 

Cons

"Azure Data Factory could benefit from improvements in its monitoring capabilities to provide a more robust feature set. Enhancing the ease of deployment to higher environments within Azure DevOps would be beneficial, as the current process often requires extensive scripting and pipeline development. It is also known for the flexibility of the data flow feature, particularly in supporting more dynamic data-driven architectures. These enhancements would contribute to a more seamless and efficient workflow within GitLab."
"Sometimes, the compute fails to process data if there is a heavy load suddenly, and it doesn't scale up automatically."
"Sometimes I need to do some coding, and I'd like to avoid that. I'd like no-code integrations."
"While it has a range of connectors for various systems, such as ERP systems, the support for these connectors can be lacking."
"A room for improvement in Azure Data Factory is its speed. Parallelization also needs improvement."
"The solution needs to integrate more with other providers and should have a closer integration with Oracle BI."
"The initial setup is not very straightforward."
"The product could provide more ways to import and export data."
"It's lacking a lot of mapping features that Oracle OSB and SOA have. It needs to evolve a lot."
"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."
"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."
"The pricing could be more competitive."
"Bulk uploading can be a problem when you hit the upper limit."
"This is an expensive solution compared to other products on the market."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Azure Data Factory gives better value for the price than other solutions such as Informatica."
"Azure products generally offer competitive pricing, suitable for diverse budget considerations."
"Data Factory is affordable."
"This is a cost-effective solution."
"I am aware of the pricing of Azure Data Factory, but I prefer not to disclose specific details."
"My company is on a monthly subscription for Azure Data Factory, but it's more of a pay-as-you-go model where your monthly invoice depends on how many resources you use. On a scale of one to five, pricing for Azure Data Factory is a four. It's just the usage fees my company pays monthly."
"Our licensing fees are approximately 15,000 ($150 USD) per month."
"The solution's pricing is competitive."
"The price is competitive compared to Boomi which is much higher."
