We performed a comparison between MySQL and Oracle Multitenant based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Relational Databases Tools solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."It is a scalable solution."
"However, it is easy to scale MySQL using the functions provided with the product."
"MySQL is open-source. There are a lot of open-source communities trying to come up with their own patches, and to come up with their own features, which help MySQL develop faster than traditional databases like Oracle, which is closed source."
"I like MySQL because of its community."
"The installation process for the most scalable solution is remarkably quick, taking only a short amount of time."
"It was easy to install."
"The feature I found most valuable is activity performance."
"We use the basic features of MySQL. The interface that allows us to see the parameters of the server is good."
"You can scale the solution as needed."
"The database becomes pluggable. Inside this container is called a pluggable database and each application contains this pluggable database inside Multitenant. We can then share resources like control files, memory, etc. This lets you stop and start each application without impacting the others. This resource sharing is the most valuable feature"
"Multitenant has a container database with many pluggable databases."
"The best thing about Oracle Multitenant is its ability to consolidate multiple databases into one engine."
"The feature that I like on Multitenant is the ease - it is very easy for my team to run the database."
"Maintaining databases is a valuable feature for us."
"The most valuable features are the speed and ease of use."
"It's easy to use and works great."
"It would be helpful if there were a graphical user interface to administer, configure, and tune it."
"In the next release, I would like to see the scalability features improved to allow you to configure it and reduce the complexity with the configuration, making it easier for the end-user to scale. Make it as simple as it can be."
"It should have some code analytical functions. It can also have a monitoring tool."
"Clusters are hard to perform so we use no SQL alternates like MongoDB."
"The performance, stability, and security are areas with shortcomings in MySQL, where improvements are required."
"The user interface could be more user friendly. Mainly because most of the times we see black and white digital lines. Something like Python."
"I would like to have features that allow us to jump between the cloud and our on-premises system."
"I would like to see the automatic backup feature in the solution as well. Data is very important and we need to preserve it in a safe place. It would be good if MySQL can back up the data automatically."
"The user interface for this solution can be made better."
"The solution lacks a GUI for commands."
"It would be beneficial to include this solution with Oracle Enterprise, but Oracle charges additional fees for it."
"That said, Oracle in general doesn't invest in their UI for any of their applications. If we're talking about the dashboard or other user experience, there is room for improvement. I'm talking about on premises. The cloud version has started to improve."
"While the product is overall excellent, it is quite expensive."
"Technical support could be faster."
"It can be complicated to scale up the solution, but it's scalable."
"This solution is a bit complicated when collecting from containers - that feature should be a bit better."
