MR
Cloud Security Support at a tech vendor with 501-1,000 employees
AI-driven queries have transformed how I discover hidden cloud assets and misconfigurations
One of the improvements that could be made to CloudQuery is the GUI. In the past, I had issues where I couldn't see all the information that would pop up at the bottom. That might be fixed by now, but I was experiencing issues with the GUI itself. CloudQuery's AI capabilities lack governance and security features. While the AI is great for helping me craft SQLs to find assets in the environment, it does not have real security features for blocking or similar tasks. I can set up SQLs for alerting, but I find that a bit limiting. For what it is, CloudQuery is great. The only improvement I could suggest would be to set up more alerting features, but overall it is great for what it is, and I would say it feels a little bit limiting.

Real-time data streaming has simplified transformations and kept enterprise databases synchronized
Oracle GoldenGate is good, but I would like to improve it. There is a need for whoever installs and configures Oracle GoldenGate to set the correct parameters for the use cases we need to use. In some cases, we had performance problems related to the streaming because there was a lot of information to stream concurrently. However, you can tune Oracle GoldenGate to use more RAM on the source side or more processes. I think that sometimes what is missing is knowledge about the tool from the person responsible for configuration. At this moment, Oracle GoldenGate is a very good tool, and I do not know in which area we can improve it. Perhaps the debug part of the tool could be improved. In some cases, I use the utility for how Oracle GoldenGate generates messages about the statements that it streams because of bugs, and in some cases, it is not very user-friendly. It may be possible to improve the API or the path related to debugging, but not the tool itself. The tool itself is good. I remember that in some configurations, we had problems with the streaming of DDL, which are changes to Oracle object structures such as tables and procedures. A new feature could be to perform streaming for operational objects such as procedures, functions, packages, or grants. This would synchronize source and target for these aspects, not only for data or the main types of structures, but also for others. I remember that there was some configuration in which you performed the streaming of the entire schema, or if you performed streaming for only tables, then you were unable to stream grants and other Oracle objects. I think it is important to introduce that capability.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"CloudQuery has positively impacted my organization because instead of navigating through multiple cloud consoles, I can run an SQL query and get, for example, all my S3 buckets that are public, private, or that I need to do something with."
"The AI-generated SQL works well for my team as it gets things right most of the time."
"For small databases, GoldenGate handles the migration well."
"Oracle GoldenGate helps to select and target specific tables for replication. Any changes or operations on those tables are immediately reflected in the source and target environments."
"The setup is simple and it can handle bi directional replication very easily."
"The most valuable features of Oracle GoldenGate are the schema application and performance."
"The flexibility for customization as well as the scalability of the tool is very important, as we expand our environment we can expand and scale up the tool on the go."
"This solution is stable and we aren't facing any issues."
"The initial setup is straightforward. It doesn't take too much time or effort to implement the solution."
"It is a scalable solution."
 

Cons

"CloudQuery really acts as an asset inventory tool, which is great, but I find that somewhat limiting."
"In the future, I would appreciate a more user-friendly monitoring interface for easier management and troubleshooting."
"Troubleshooting issues is not always the easiest. It should be easier to troubleshoot. Their support can also be improved. They don't read your problem statement and waste a lot of time. GoldenGate for big data is actually a separate license. It is sort of a separate product, but it might fall underneath your GoldenGate category. If we're talking about big data, its interaction with big data sources is poorly documented."
"The tool's connections are disconnected at times. The tool needs to integrate other databases."
"The licensing model should be improved to be more cost-effective for the end users."
"It would be great if Oracle added some enhanced features or more functionalities to Oracle GoldenGate."
"The technical support in Egypt is not responsive."
"Oracle support is very frustrating in terms of how they pass tickets back and forth and don't read your problem statement."
"You cannot put everything in Golden Gate for the license and large models."
