Facilitates complex data integration with ease and flexibility
It would be great if ODI could link the designer, mapping, and workflows in a more simplified manner, maybe in one combined interface. It would be excellent not to have to go into different areas to perform different activities but rather have a user-defined interface where we can configure a job, run it, monitor it, link packages, and link subprocesses all in one frame instead of having the designer separately, mapping separately, and monitoring and session management separately. With respect to data quality challenges, it would be great to give an option to fix data quality issues based on AI. Integrating AI with ODI that provides recommendations on how to fix those data quality issues after analyzing and profiling business data would be excellent. One of the main disadvantages of the Oracle Data Integrator (ODI) is that it sometimes takes a lot of resources when handling multiple jobs. The scalability and the ability to handle multiple workloads of several parallel ETL jobs could use improvement, and certain parallel threads should be added along with the ability to configure multiple jobs from the same data directory structure.

Finds security and customization features impressive, although cost concerns persist
My experience with Palantir Foundry and Azure has been good. Palantir Foundry is costly, but Azure is open, which allows for easier experimentation. Being a closed product, Palantir Foundry is difficult to practice offline unless we have an enterprise edition. However, it is very secure compared to other platforms. Palantir Foundry's best features include security, built-in features, low-code, no-code platform, and ease of use. The collaborative workspaces within Palantir Foundry contribute to team efficiency and project outcomes through seamless operation. The ease of customization is particularly notable. I have worked with the data lineage feature in Palantir Foundry, which comes by default. We simply need to tick the checkbox and make necessary configuration changes within the system itself. We do not need to procure another lineage platform as Palantir Foundry has its own built-in features for data lineage, data governance, and data security. The lineage feature helps enhance our data management practices by allowing us to understand the origin of data, track all activities happening on the data, identify users and consumers, and monitor how it flows across the system. This makes it easier to generate reports based on the lineage database. The predictive analytics capability within Palantir Foundry impacts financial forecasting strategies through its AIP functionality, which includes numerous pre-built models, LLMs, and data science application libraries. Using the AIP library within Palantir Foundry helps us develop quick resolutions for predictive models and analytics.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The most valuable features of ODI are the ease of development, you can have a template, and you can onboard transfer very quickly. There's a lot of knowledge modules available that we can use. If you want to connect, for example, a Sibyl, SQL, Oracle, or different products, we don't have to develop them from scratch. They are available, but if it's not, we can go into the marketplace and see if there's a connector there. Having the connector available reduces the amount of hard work needed. We only have to put the inputs and outputs. In some of the products, we use there is already integration available for ODI, which is helpful."
"The tool improved our data integration workflow primarily due to its compatibility with Oracle. Its integration makes it very convenient for analytics. Its most valuable feature is robust extended capability. The solution's debugging capabilities are good."
"Oracle provides strong support. I can get solutions quickly, and any tickets I submit to Oracle are responded to and resolved rapidly."
"The initial setup is easy."
"The most valuable features of ODI are the knowledge modules, such as the Loading Knowledge module and the Check Knowledge module, they are helpful. We can check for the constraints in ODI. That helps in figuring out what are the constraints that are the primary keys created in the tables. We can check them with the Check Knowledge module."
"Oracle provides great documentation."
"The main benefits that Oracle Data Integrator (ODI) brings to the table include data quality, data completeness functionality, metadata management, and the reverse engineering feature, which allows integrating the metadata of diversified data sources with a single click."
"It has the ability to easily load slowly changing dimensions."
"Live video sessions enhance the available documentation and allow you to ask questions directly."
"The data lineage is great."
"Palantir Foundry is a robust platform that has really strong plugin connectors and provides features for real-time integration."
"Great features available in one tool."
"The ease of use is my favorite feature. We're able to build different models and projects or combine different projects to build one use case."
"I rate Palantir Foundry a ten out of ten."
"The AI engine that comes with Palantir Foundry is quite interesting."
"The virtualization tool is useful."
 

Cons

"The solution lacks some functions and features."
"It has been very good. Just recently, I've faced an issue, but I solved it somehow. While integrating with a file, I faced an issue where I wanted output files, and I had used the text field limited quotations, but at the end of the file, there was a line breakage for the last column. So, we just removed the text field because it was not working correctly for us."
"The resource management aspect of the solution could be improved."
"There could be better compatibility with other ETL tools and cloud platforms."
"ODI components may not fulfill as much as Informatica PowerCenter or IBM DataStage. The pushdown optimization is not as effective as other tools."
"We used a third party to do the implementation of ODI."
"​The stability of the software could be improved. Sometimes, the software just crashes. ​"
"At present, when multiple steps are executed in parallel in the load plan and errors occur, the error handling mechanism does not function correctly."
"The solution's visualization and analysis could be improved."
"The startup pricing is high, causing concern despite being cost-effective in terms of total cost of ownership."
"The major hindrance with Palantir Foundry is that being a very closed product, the cost optimization and costing are not exposed to the end users."
"It requires a lot of manual work and is very time-consuming to get to a functional point."
"Some error messages can be very cryptic."
"If you want to create new models on specific data sets, computing that is quite costly."
"The data lineage was challenging. It's hard to track data from the sources as it moves through stages. Informatica EDC can easily capture and report it because it talks to the metadata. This is generated across those various staging points."
"Cost of this solution is quite high."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"ODI comes included when buying the cloud version of the Oracle database license."
"The solution is expensive because of the model they use. The cost is for the license and for support."
"I have yet to determine the exact figure for Oracle Data Integrator (ODI) pricing, but it has lower pricing than Informatica."
"I rate the platform pricing as five out of ten."
"Being an ODI developer, I never had to pay for this product. I know that the pricing/licensing is not really low, but the product is really good."
"The license can be costly, but in certain complex cases, ODI proves to be the optimal solution."
"The solution is very expensive."
"We found that the cost compared to other integration tools is a little high, but the solution works great."
"Palantir Foundry has different pricing models that can be negotiated."
"It's expensive."
"The solution’s pricing is high."
"Palantir Foundry is an expensive solution."
