Data virtualization and integration enabled while caching and scalability room for improvement
In terms of improvements for Denodo, regarding performance, in cases where there are multiple virtualizations—such as reading from one Denodo view that is virtualized, and from that view there's also virtualization, and another team is reading from that view—if multiple virtualizations happen with no caching in between, it becomes slow. This occurs because it is cascading; whenever at the top level someone is reading data, that request is getting cascaded to the nth level, causing issues, especially in cases such as Power BI reports. We need to consider implementing some persistent layer in between. The scaling process should improve because many things are getting automated. The scale-out part needs to be automated, though I am uncertain whether Denodo has already implemented that feature.

A product that is easy to install and offers good stability to users
The API part of the solution is an area in the solution where improvements are made since I see that TIBCO is currently trying to revamp its tool by focusing more on redesigning it. There was a tool called Mashery, which is an API management tool that was acquired by TIBCO. TIBCO Cloud Integration is not a user-friendly tool when it comes to the installation phase or for maintaining the systems since its architecture is really complex. I think in the UK, one of the major telecom providers for whom I had done the infrastructure setup uses TIBCO Cloud Integration. Basically, TIBCO Cloud Integration is a bit difficult to install and manage the platform, but I feel there are improvements in the tool's latest version, especially on the API management side. Instead of moving to the higher version and converting the older version of TIBCO Cloud Integration or the legacy platform covered under TIBCO, they still use it because the architecture is completely different, and the components that the product has are completely different from what the new version of the product offers, making it one of the major reasons why TIBCO is coming up with a new version of the product that will be released in the upcoming year. The legacy platform of TIBCO will run on the cloud directly. TIBCO plans to develop a unified tool that is supported on the cloud and in an on-premises environment.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Data mining is one of the valuable features. We're able to connect all of the data sources with the installed driver, so that is a good advantage in Denodo. Being able to join the tables and view them is also valuable."
"The most valuable aspects of this solution are the short time frame in which you can deliver and connect."
"Denodo's best features are its performance, easy data transformation, and the job scheduler."
"Overall, I would rate Denodo a nine out of ten."
"The GUI interface allows easy connection of all data sources like API, JSON, or any JDBC source."
"In PL/SQL, first you need to gather all the data and then start writing the file, but in Denodo you fetch the data and write the data simultaneously. So, for example, if you have 1 million or 2 million records, you don't have to wait to fetch all of the 2 million; you can keep on fetching and writing in the file simultaneously."
"In general, it's good for us to make tests so we can scout the data."
"Denodo makes it easy to export data as a service or data link to other services."
"The product's initial setup phase was easy."
"I like that it is a very good integration tool with many other things. TIBCO is very good for cloud integration"
"I am really impressed by TIBCO's integration of any level of complexity."
 

Cons

"There have been some issues when you are at a table. Currently, Denodo exports data sets for a tabular model. When you are finished modeling your database or data warehouse they export a link to be used in Tableau. They should support other tools like Power BI."
"The solution should have its own acceleration technology."
"The solution is slow when there are many virtualization layers."
"The cache configuration is more complicated."
"The stability of the features can be improved."
"Lacks integrations with AWS, GCP and the like."
"We would like this solution to be more universally user-friendly. At present it is really only aimed at IT specialists."
"Denodo currently integrates with ChatGPT, but the ability to manage and utilize them directly within Denodo would be a significant improvement."
"The deployment was rather complicated."
"TIBCO Cloud Integration is not a user-friendly tool when it comes to the installation phase or for maintaining the systems since its architecture is really complex."
"Integrations could be better. Although integration is good, we have faced some block issues."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Talking with my manager and others, nobody has complained about the pricing so far which is a positive sign."
"There is an express edition and a licensed enterprise edition."
"The licensing charges for this solution are payable annually."
"The licensing should be improved, as the cost per connector is quite expensive."
"Denodo provides a lightweight 30-day free trial, but when we do courses on top of it, it costs $150 for each person."
"I don't know the actual cost, but it's tens of thousands of dollars per month."
"Depending on the size of the client you want to work with, it can be prohibitively expensive at times."
"I am not super familiar with the pricing, but so far, it seems good. We have been happy. We haven't seen any problems. The only time we had to pay extra was during the upgrade. We didn't upgrade at the time they told us to upgrade, and we had to pay extra to keep the service. They had stopped the support for the older version and moved to the newer version. It was not their fault. It was our fault because we didn't get on board quickly."
"We don't pay for a license."
