Good at handling replication, provides cross-database replication but SAP can provide better support for cross-database replication to newer technologies

SAP can provide better support for cross-database replication to newer technologies. The product supports Oracle, but I am not aware of what other technologies it supports. If someone wants to replicate their data from Sybase to a newer technology for data warehousing or other purposes, it would be better if they supported those.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Complete/custom machine real-time replication process (including apply and verification of destination)."

"Provides high degree of comfort regarding High Availability (HA)."

"From the simplest to the most complex environments, and with millions of transactions, MIMIX can adapt to any environment."

"Apart from the fact that we are assured high availability and disaster recovery, we use this product for different purposes as well."

"We used it solely for IBM AS400 replication for disaster recovery/failover purposes."

"I think it is the best, most robust and flexible product available."

"No system downtime High Availability (HA)."

"In case we have an emergency or a sudden issue on the production system, we can put our point of sale terminals in local mode for 1 hour, switch over to the backup system, verify that all is running OK, then the POS systems can reconnect, and our users can sign on again and continue working."

More MIMIX [EOL] pros

"We use this solution for all kinds of communications like RFC, BAPI, IDoc, connecting with the orders, accounts, finance, data stuff, banking, everything."

"It speeds up the performance in terms of how fast you are able to access the data, look at it, get it reported to you, and send it to somebody. It also reduces the amount of storage."

"We can customize any workflow and we also like the business domain modeling that can be done."

"The most valuable thing about this product is that it replicates data between SAP databases (ASE to IQ) very successfully."

"Currently, there is a Hadoop-based infrastructure with several engineers to maintain the data, and now, using SAP Replication Server, it has become automatic and requires fewer people to put data in the data warehouse."

"This product has a catalog with the location of all the objects which were replicated, and it's very simple to maintain."

"It's pretty good at handling replication, even under high load. It also provides cross-database replication, for example, from Sybase to Oracle."

"SAP is renovating different things. We are using external tools to connect as of now. It is going well, and now the new generation integration platforms are going to be pretty easy."

More SAP Replication Server pros

Cons

"The version we're using is not portal ready."

"Could make it easier to fix object errors."

"The MQSeries replication part doesn't work smoothly, sometimes requiring more manual activity to ensure synch between live and backup."

"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."

"The monitoring part of MIMIX - VSP (Vision Solutions Portal) needs some improvements."

"Installation is pretty easy but it can be fairly complicated to setup and configure."

"The solution could use better dashboards for new users. They can look complicated until you get used to using the solution."

"Customer support is good but they do try to squeeze out those service dollars."

More MIMIX [EOL] cons

"There is a need to improve performance in high transactional processes."

"The private solution is expensive. If you're in a situation where you're paying IBM or AWS or somebody just to host you specifically, you're paying people to run it and you're taking care of all the upgrades."

"It's a very expensive solution."

"There is room for improvement in terms of pricing and faster support."

"Improvement is a never ending story, and HANA is doing some improvements. We are able to adopt that, and we have to do it by integration with HANA. They are very major changes that we need to see."

"If someone wants to replicate their data from Sybase to a newer technology for data warehousing or other purposes, it would be better if they supported those."

"I would like to see it become mobile-friendly."

"It's complex. It's necessary to understand a little about infrastructure, like network LAN and VLAN environment."

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available

"You can pick one of the hosted cloud services as opposed to owning it and doing it yourself. Your cost of ownership on the hardware, the data storage, and the maintenance all go down. It depends on what service you use."

"It's a very expensive solution."
