We performed a comparison between Oracle Database Appliance and Teradata based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Data Warehouse solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The database is solid."
"We value the appliance architecture with its “everything-in-a-box” highly standardized setup."
"The most valuable feature is the performance."
"The solution is pretty automated, which takes out the possibility of human error."
"If the database goes down on one of the servers, the load is automatically shifted to another server. You can troubleshoot the one that is down without affecting uptime."
"We use the solution for our Java applications."
"The performance due to the all-flash of ODA is very nice."
"The initial setup was straightforward and quick - I was able to configure everything within an hour."
"I've never had any issues with scalability."
"The most valuable feature of Teradata is the quick processing of large data."
"The most valuable features of Teradata are that it is a massively parallel platform and I can receive a lot of data and get the queries out correctly, especially if it's been appropriately designed. The native features make it very suitable for multiple large data tasks in a structured data environment. Additionally, the automation is very good."
"A conventional and easily defined way to build a data warehouse or a layer of data marts."
"It effectively has allowed us to remove over 20 portion copies of the data sets on other DB platforms for real-time operational reporting purposes."
"It's a pre-configured appliance that requires very little in terms of setting-up."
"Cuts time to process huge amounts of data with efficient analytical queries."
"Building a data warehouse with Teradata has definitely helped a lot of our downstream applications to more easily access information."
"Since we don't have the room to scale up, I rate this solution a six out of ten for scalability."
"We would like the ability to add more storage without having to upgrade to Oracle Exadata."
"Oracle could improve its capacity for built-in visualization."
"The license cost could be cheaper, especially for long-term contracts."
"Virtualization needs improvement. It's not easy to back up the virtual machines in the Oracle VM architecture. I would also like to see native support for Veeam Backup Software."
"If we were able to use Oracle Database to create mobile apps, that would be great. I don't know multiple languages, like Java, etc. I need to learn a separate language, right now in order to do this."
"I would like it if the scalability could be increased without having to change versions."
"I would be happy to see the Oracle Auto Service Request (ASR) pre-installed in it instead of installing it in a separate machine."
"I would like to see an improved Knowledge Base on the web."
"Teradata needs to pay attention to the cloud-based solution to make sure it runs smoothly."
"Needs compatibility with more Big Data platforms."
"Teradata hardly supports unstructured data or semi-structured data"
"I've been using the same UI for 20 years in Teradata. It could use some updating. Adding more stability around Teradata Studio would be outstanding. Teradata Studio is a Java-based version of their tool. It's much better now, but it still has some room for improvement."
"Teradata is an old data warehouse, and they're not improving in terms of new, innovative features."
"The user interface needs to be improved."
"Data synchronization to the DR site."
