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.

Unified data workflows have empowered collaborative analytics and streamlined AI development

Regarding points for improvement for Palantir Foundry, I see that they are improving day by day. In the last one to two years, I have seen many improvements compared to the two years that I have worked on Palantir Foundry. There are many things that come up, but a few things are not intuitive enough. Now that we are in this AI phase, Palantir Foundry has created some wrappers around the models, allowing us to create using a no-code application, chatbots, and LLM functions. The problem is that interaction with outside applications can be difficult with the current setup that Palantir Foundry has. There are ways to do that, but it is not that intuitive, which is what I feel.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The user interface for the data integrator tool is probably the most valuable piece."

"My customers started to increase their ETL performance with great margins."

"Once you get the hang of it, it's a pretty cool data integration tool."

"The tool is declarative, and it only runs on the target staging databases, so I have full control over it and I can change the SQL that the tool generates."

"The possibilities provided by using knowledge modules and the integration with other Oracle products."

"The product has an ELT approach."

"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."

"The ability to extract from multiple sources, the flexibility of using the Knowledge module, and the ergonomics of the GUI are the features I've found most valuable."

More Oracle Data Integrator (ODI) pros

"Encapsulates all the components without the requirement to integrate or check compatibility."

"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."

"I like the data onboarding to Palantir Foundry and ETL creation."

"It is easy to map out a workflow and run trigger-based scripts without having to deploy to another server."

"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."

"The AI engine that comes with Palantir Foundry is quite interesting."

"It's scalable."

"The security is also excellent. It's highly granular, so the admins have a high degree of control, and there are many levels of security. That worked well. You won't have an EDC unless you put everything onto the platform because it is its own isolated thing."

More Palantir Foundry pros

Cons

"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 tool should improve its pricing. It prevents the application of Oracle ODI on small and medium projects in countries like Croatia, Germany, or the US. While there are no technological obstacles to using it, the high price makes it unfeasible for projects with smaller budgets."

"Overall performance needs improvement. Especially when running ODI clients on Windows desktops."

"Customer Service: It could be better. Technical Support: It could be better."

"I would like to see in the next version/release the ability to scale a package workflow or data flow process during the execution at run time."

"I rate it a seven out of 10 because there is room for growth because ODI is still new, in comparison to Informatica, which is a mature product."

"It needs easier security."

"I would like more different tools of transformation. In the current version I have only worked with lookup and filter, and sometimes it is not good enough for what I use it for."

More Oracle Data Integrator (ODI) cons

"The solution’s data security could be improved."

"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."

"The solution could use more online documentation for new users."

"They do not have a data center in Europe, and we have lots of personally identifiable information in our dataset that needs to be hosted by a third-party data center like Amazon or Microsoft Azure."

"Some error messages can be very cryptic."

"The startup pricing is high, causing concern despite being cost-effective in terms of total cost of ownership."

"Cost of this solution is quite high."

"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."

More Palantir Foundry cons

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The solution is expensive because of the model they use. The cost is for the license and for support."

"The license can be costly, but in certain complex cases, ODI proves to be the optimal solution."

"We found that the cost compared to other integration tools is a little high, but the solution works great."

"I rate the platform pricing as five out of ten."

"There is a standard license to use the solution but there are other costs in addition, such as hardware and operating system."

"Per user, it is $900 USD per year, though they will give some discount. However, even a 60% to 70% of discount for each won't help us much. On top of that, there is the perpetual license you must pay at the outset."

"ODI comes included when buying the cloud version of the Oracle database license."

"The solution is very expensive."

Reviews from Real Users

Below are some reviews and helpful feedback written by PeerSpot users currently using the Oracle Data Integrator (ODI) solution.

Brian D., Business Process and Strategy Specialist Advisor at NTTData, says, “The Knowledge Module (KM) is my favorite feature of ODI. This is where I learned how to use variables to make jobs dynamic. I took that knowledge and created a KM that would go into iTunes and pull the sales of eBooks. Making something that is reusable, like a KM, is important to not only reduce build time but also maintenance in the future.”

Ashok S., Applications Support Manager at a marketing services firm, mentions, "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."
