Room For Improvement

Azure Data Factory needs better setup, connectivity, documentation, support, performance, and UI for enhanced functionality and user experience.
Oracle Integration Cloud faces issues with file management, integration flexibility, high costs, and complex debugging, needing significant improvements.
The ability to handle the largest volumes of data is another concern; if I have to manage more than one terabyte of data every day, I am not comfortable dealing with Azure Data Factory and had to switch to Oracle Data Integrators (ODI) because it lacks performance features.
Senior Consultant Oracle Technologies at a tech vendor with 10,001+ employees
If I am making a pipeline, it should give me suggestions, such as which activity should be used, so that I don't have to remember each activity.
Test Engineer at Happiest Minds Technologies
Incorporating more dedicated API sources to specific services like HubSpot CRM or Salesforce would be beneficial.
Chief Analytics Officer at Idiro Analytics
Setup and deployment can be done in OCI, the Oracle Cloud Infrastructure, allowing for role-based access and configuration, managing access levels for Oracle Integration Cloud Service environments such as Dev, Test, and Production.
Technical Consultant at Argano
The mapping is a bit complex, so configuration is not very easy for a new user.
Senior Software Engineer at A.P. Moller - Maersk
Most large customers use multiple clouds, and Oracle's partnership with Azure and other hyperscalers needs additional development on the Integration Cloud Service side.
Senior Director at LTI - Larsen & Toubro Infotech
 

Setup Cost

Azure Data Factory's pricing is competitive but complex, requiring careful monitoring to manage costs for high data usage.
Oracle Integration Cloud Service offers competitive, flexible pricing, providing value despite high initial costs, especially for Oracle customers.
The pricing is cost-effective.
Chief Analytics Officer at Idiro Analytics
It is considered cost-effective.
Sr. Technical Architect at Hexaware Technologies Limited
If integration points exceed 30, I recommend that customers use Oracle Integration Cloud Service as it becomes cost-effective with its pay-as-you-use model and multiple available packages.
Senior Director at LTI - Larsen & Toubro Infotech
Oracle Integration Cloud Service's pricing is affordable and reasonable considering its facilities.
Technical Consultant at Argano
At TCS, we also have our own instance because we have purchased the product from Oracle.
Solution Architect at a tech vendor with 10,001+ employees

Kunal Das - PeerSpot reviewer
Test Engineer at Happiest Minds Technologies
Drag-and-drop pipelines have saved days of work and now automate data movement and backfilling
If the AI features were more improved so that I don't have to provide each and every detail, Azure Data Factory could be improved in a much better way by improving the AI features. For example, if I want to fetch any data from a raw source, I need to provide each and every detail. But if I am just uploading my raw data and if AI will sync with that data, it can analyze that data and give me proper suggestions on how that should be done in a proper way. Automatic suggestions could improve in a much better way. As I have mentioned, the AI features as well as more drag-and-drop activities could be improved. If I am making a pipeline, it should give me suggestions, such as which activity should be used, so that I don't have to remember each activity. If I have used one activity, I shouldn't have to remember what activity should I use next. It should give auto-suggestions. That is why I have given a nine out of 10. Currently, I don't know about its governance and security, but in view of its improvement, I think Azure Data Factory should improve in these areas. As I already mentioned, the AI features should be improved. Also, the auto-suggestion features should also improve.
Sathish Pamisetty - PeerSpot reviewer

Security and integration features are appreciated but some bugs need addressing
The main feature of Oracle Integration Cloud Service is its budget-friendly pricing compared to other middleware tools such as MuleSoft, Dell Boomi, or Workato. Additionally, Oracle Integration Cloud Service provides tools such as PCS and Apex for building user interfaces, allowing users to create UIs with drag-and-drop features. Oracle Integration Cloud Service offers capabilities for data customization and validation, handling different date formats, and API calls using REST and SOAP. With approximately 60 to 70 adapters, it allows integration with systems such as SAP, Salesforce, and ERP. Oracle Integration Cloud Service also comes with pre-built adapters, offering easy setup and security features such as OAuth for connecting with systems such as Salesforce.
