Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The solution has a self-backup, so you don't need a DBA (database administrator) to do a backup."
"Oracle Autonomous Data Warehouse is used globally to deliver extreme performance on large Financial data sets."
"It is a very stable tool...It is an extremely scalable tool."
"The solution is used for analytics and it works for our data security needs."
"I loved the simplicity of loading the data and simply relying on the self-tuning capabilities of ADW."
"I really like the auto-tuning, auto-scaling, and the automatic load balancing and query tuning in the system."
"It is an extremely scalable solution since you can dynamically change the resources as some other cloud solutions."
"The performance and scalability are awesome."
"The parallel load features mean that Greenplum is capable of high-volume data loading in parallel to all of the cluster segments, which is really valuable."
"It's one of the fastest databases in the market. It's easy to use. From a maintenance perspective it's a good product. The segmentation, or architecture of the product is different than other databases such as Oracle. So even in 10 years, the data distribution for such segments will not affect other segments. The query performance of the product, for complex queries, is very good. It has good integration with Hadoop."
"Very fast for query processing."
"Companies can scale the solution, so long as they have server room."
"The product is not complex."
"Pivotal Greenplum's shared-nothing architecture."
"The solution's technical support is good."
"It can be configured to be a very fast message broker. I like the stability, the built-in admin tools and plugin architecture."
 

Cons

"My main suggestion for Oracle is the configuration and key values that come for JSON files. When we create a table, especially if you see in our RedShift or some other stuff, if I create a table on top of a JSON file with multiple array columns or superset columns, those column values create some difficulty in Oracle."
"They should make the solution more user-friendly."
"It doesn't work well when you have unstructured data or you need online analytics. It is not as nice as Hadoop in these aspects."
"Ease of connectivity could be improved."
"I would like to see Application Express and Oracle R Enterprise fully supported, and I would like to see Oracle Data Mining supported as a front end."
"There is a need for more storage to be allocated, but over a period of time, it becomes impossible to reduce it after using it."
"One of the major problem is creating custom tablespace. The ADB serverless option doesn't support custom tablespace creation, which could cause issues during on-premise database migration that requires specifically named tablespace. There should be an option to create customized tablespace."
"The solution could be improved by allowing for migration tools from other cloud services, including migration from Amazon Redshift, RDS, and Aurora."
"The user interface could be improved."
"We needed to configure additional plugins. While it was relatively easy to do this on-premises, it became more challenging in the cloud."
"RabbitMQ is clearly better supported on Linux than it is on Windows. There are idiosyncrasies in the Windows version that are not there on Linux."
"When you have complex tasks, RabbitMQ is hard to use."
"The installation is difficult and should be made easier."
"The support feature could benefit from some improvement in terms of accessibility and responsiveness."
"Initial setup is a little complex. It took around two weeks to deploy."
"We would like to see Greenplum maintain a closer relationship with and parity to features implemented in PostgreSQL."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The cost is perfect with Oracle Universal credit."
"ROI is high."
"Oracle Autonomous Data Warehouse's pricing is fair and reasonable compared to the other cloud vendors."
"In terms of architecture and pricing structure, I feel it is a little bit costly compared to Azure. It's fine compared to RedShift, but compared to Azure, it's a bit pricey when you calculate for one TB storage plus around five hours of reporting with the frequency of 1TB data. The cost adds up, making Oracle a bit expensive."
"The price depends on the configuration we choose."
"The solution is expensive."
"We pay approximately $70,000 per month. The cost includes maintenance and support."
"On a scale from one to ten, where one is a low price and ten is a high price, I rate the pricing an eight."
"Pricing is good compared to other products. It's fine."
"It is the best product with best fit for price/performance customer objectives."
"Tanzu Greenplum's pricing is really competitive and gives excellent value for money."
"The product is available for free use since it is an open-source technology."
"It is an open-source platform. Although, we have to pay for additional features."
"It’s an open-source solution."
"Since the tool is an open-source product, there is no need to pay anything."
"The price is pretty good."
