Facilitating real-time business insights with enhanced data querying
Coherence is beneficial due to its multi-indexing to the same object and filtering based on data attributes within the object, followed by aggregation. These features facilitate querying data with multiple keys rather than just a single key. Its real-time data processing capabilities provide insights for business decisions with up-to-date information.

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

Pros

"Apart from the fact that we are assured high availability and disaster recovery, we use this product for different purposes as well."
"It has helped us cut down process time and manpower."
"We used it solely for IBM AS400 replication for disaster recovery/failover purposes."
"Customer Service: Excellent; their team is very knowledgeable and responsive."
"I think it is the best, most robust and flexible product available."
"No system downtime High Availability (HA)."
"It's used in our new architecture, for production, HA/DR and it works with different data groups."
"Knowing that our data is in multiple backup locations, provides us with piece of mind as far as a disaster recovery situation is concerned."
"This product helped our organization to focus on implementing business logic without worrying about scalability on user loads of huge data queries."
"Since we implemented Coherence, this data is in memory all the time; so the results are found in milliseconds instead of five seconds."
"It can handle an extremely high volume of data."
"It was suited for stock exchange marketing software, improved performance."
"The Customer Facing Application response time has been improved 95%."
"Space consumption is much less."
"Portable object format (POF serialization) allows objects to be serialized and deserialized between Java and .NET so the two platforms can exchange data seamlessly."
"The product is stable and solid."
 

Cons

"The version we're using is not portal ready."
"Replication errors need to be resolved."
"Customer support is good but they do try to squeeze out those service dollars."
"The MQSeries replication part doesn't work smoothly, sometimes requiring more manual activity to ensure synch between live and backup."
"The systems overheads need improvement."
"Replication of the IBM i spooled files and files on the IFS system (Windows-like environment). About 1/2 the time, we have to nudge the system a bit to get the file(s) over."
"Could make it easier to fix object errors."
"The monitoring part of MIMIX - VSP (Vision Solutions Portal) needs some improvements."
"Reloading really takes a lot of time."
"Oracle Coherence has considerable operational risks."
"I would like to see a more modern API like Hazelcast or Infinispan."
"Data transfer performance over geographical locations. Oracle database has better performance compared to Coherence when accessed from different regions."
"Cluster management tools that are independent of WebLogic. Dynamic cluster config rollout and rollback."
"Technical support is 3 or even 2 out of 10. Working directly through an account rep or a contact on Coherence dev team helps a lot."
"Customer service: Five out of 10."
"Configuration is too complex."
