Allows you to develop your own components and can be used as an OEM
Sometimes, scalability is part of planning. It depends on what you mean by scalability. People talk a lot about it, but scalability is not always about system functionality. Sometimes, it may be planning the job you're doing. If you want to split it into several jobs or servers, you don't actually have to have it built in as a functionality. You can create a job using a loop, which runs and controls several jobs in a loop that may be controlled. Scaling should not always be part of the infrastructure based on whether the engine can scale or not. I think it's your plan or project that should scale and split, and you can define these parameters. These parameters include how many servers you want to run or how many executions you want to do on different parts of the data. It's not always an issue of the engine running. Sometimes, your database should be configured to support partitioning. The product may scale very well without partitioning, but if the basic response is very slow, you didn't solve the problem. You should solve the problems at a higher level, not just at the execution level. They should be solved at the database level and communication level, and you should have firewalls. We are trying to add to the open source the ability to generate code for containers and Kubernetes that exist in the subscription version. Once you do this, Kubernetes will take care of the scaling, so there is no problem.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"It is fully featured. It has allowed me to do everything I wanted to do."
"The data integration aspect of the solution is excellent."
"You can use Talend SDK to develop your own components and add them to the product."
"It is easy to use and covers most of the functions needed. We can use the code without any extra effort. The open source is very good. They have the same commercials with additional connectors. The graphical design environment is also very easy."
"Talend can connect to multiple data sources, including relational data sources, ERP, CRM, and others."
"The product's initial setup phase was easy."
"The Talend Studio connected to the Talend MDM (Master Data Management) is the most valuable feature. Talend Studio is used to create a job stream that connects to multiple data sources, matches, compares or creates a golden record for overall identification. It also has a good catalogue of objects that can be dragged and dropped for building models."
"We're able to handle large amounts of data with ease."
"It is user-friendly and the interface is good."
 

Cons

"The user interface could improve. We are looking at some cloud-based databases, and I don't think they support that."
"If I compare Open Studion to other solutions, their interface is robust but not so fancy looking. This is an area that could use improvement. I would like to see an updated interface."
"The server-side should be completely revamped."
"Inter-version compatibility is a problem, and migration projects between versions are required."
"he overall marketing and documentation of this product need to improve a lot."
"The high price of the solution is an area of concern where improvements are required."
"We need more components to be more efficient. We use a lot of components, such as Salesforce, and it's not easy to use. There's are minor bugs and it's not easy to use some of the features."
"I rate Talend Open Studio's stability an eight out of ten. Talend has some problems sometimes."
"The only other thing is that you have to integrate into an API gateway. We're in Azure, so we use Microsoft Azure Gateway. It doesn't come with its own gateway, which is another sort of big plus side that we saw in Boomi. Talend isn't quite there yet with the API gateway."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"Price could be lower. It is getting too expensive when compared to some other solutions, which is actually a little bit concerning."
"Pricing and licensing are fairly straightforward. It is reasonably priced and managed."
"Right now, because we're using the open-source version, there's no cost."
"Pricing is always a challenge. It is quite an expensive model, but because the platform is so simple to use, we haven't had to purchase any additional licenses."
"Talend Open Studio is priced too high."
"For Talend Open Studio, there is a need to make yearly payments towards the licensing cost. Talend Open Studio is a bit expensive, in my opinion."
"I am using the open-source version and it is free."
"It is an open-source tool which means it is a free solution."
