Solution Architect at a comms service provider with 10,001+ employees

Intuitive, robust, manageable, and agile

In terms of what could be improved, I particularly think the scope of automation is very much limited. So they should introduce some more STK's and APIs for automation first thing. Secondly, in terms of Vscale Architecture, they should have some evangelists. When I go to the community for VMware ESXi or NSX, I get lots of information online everywhere because community members are talking, evangelists are talking. Additionally, I usually have a lot of KV articles and lot of community articles I can read and sort out the minor issues. But, in terms of Vscale, you need to be very mature in all aspects of the technology and when you get disturbed, you have to go through the entire documentation to figure things out. I think I heard this from one or two customers as well. Their resources are not able to find much online support for Vscale. As for what should be included in future releases, customers are looking for a unified management console, which they have, but the console should be more user-friendly. Secondly, they should have more scope of orchestration. Thirdly, regarding monitoring, there should be a built-in monitoring engine like we have in Nutanix. These are the things customers complain about sometimes.

Good performance and stability with a straightforward setup

Typically, if a client needs support, they contact us and we are the ones to offer it to them. However, we have contacted Oracle technical support and we have a back-to-back contract with them. They support our HR on-site team. We also get support from Oracle functional services and backend support. They are usually quite good, but at times it depends on which engineer is working. When we get support from India, there's sometimes a delay. If it's from Europe or the US, often we get faster results. Time zones also affect technical support response times and will dictate who responds to our requests.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Vscale's scalability is super good. Vscale's scalability, manageability, and performance are all three areas that I emphasize when I sell Vscale Architectures to the customer."

"Scalablility: When we need to upgrade from an eighth-rack to a full-rack, the real downtime is less then an hour."

"It has improved the way my organization functions by migrating apps to one consolidated platform that is dedicated to WebLogic and Oracle apps."

"Exalogic offers integration with other engineered systems, which increases the throughput capability and enables processing of bigger and heavier workloads."

"Enterprise high-speed interoperability: With IPoIB we can deliver to other environments, either IP-Ethernet-based or IP-InfiniBand-based protocol, both with minimum bandwidth capacity of 10Gbps, 20Gbps, or 40Gbps, redundantly."

"This is NOT a product someone wants to deploy in a business that requires reliability and accountability."

"If you are using only LINUX/Solaris and Oracle Fusion MW products, then this is a great platform."

"There are many benefits of Exalogic, but I believe the most important point is production stability."

"The most valuable feature I've seen in the Exalogic platform is the integration it has with the Exadata."

Cons

"In terms of what could be improved, I particularly think the scope of automation is very much limited. So they should introduce some more STK's and API's for automation first thing."

"Exadata's current speed is almost enough but sometimes much slower than the older mainframe systems, so some performance improvements would be helpful."

"Every deployment or configuration change in Exalogic is a surprise. It is not reliable."

"Provisioning more than a dozen VMs can be problematic for the proxy servers to handle, and some of the jobs fail."

"It's very expensive. Oracle Platinum Services (patching) is terrible, and we haven't had a patching exercise occur without significant problems and often impact to production operations."

"The solution is prone to disk failures. This needs to improve."

"Currently the management functions of Exalogic are not as smooth as one would desire."

"Technical support is an issue for Oracle, not only for Exalogic products; it needs to improve."

"Initially, yes, there were stability issues. A number of redesigns were needed to stabilize the Hypervisor, control the stack layer, as well as the software defined network drivers (Mellanox bugs causing compute nodes to reboot)."

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available

"Get the price of the license you will need for the middleware that will be running on top of the Exalogic. Otherwise, you can use another middleware solution, as long as it can run on top of Oracle Linux."

"Pricing and licensing are two very delicate aspects when talking about Oracle, especially engineered systems. The prices are quite high compared with other similar products, so the CapEx analysis and investment return have to be very well studied."

"To expand the hardware's capability requires a massive investment."
