When it comes to how Oracle Database can be improved, for me it is all about training and development in terms of gamification, creating awareness, and spreading the word to aspiring database administrators and database developers. As I have used it in the past and in recent times, many people are trying to get into IT, so the opportunity exists. Oracle has the market opportunity to take this time to spread its offerings and ensure that many aspiring professionals are aware of its services and products. From my perspective, there is not much to add regarding the needed improvements for the interface and the documentation. I give it a nine because I think Oracle sometimes can make things complicated. You have many services, many products, and many tools for different use cases. So it is difficult for someone who is only used to a particular product, such as Oracle Database, to understand all the other products and services that it provides. Probably streamlining it and making it available with categorized use cases for specific job roles would help. If you are a database developer, these are the tools that you need to be familiar with in Oracle's suite of products, and if you are a database administrator, these are the tools. Categorizing them based on the job role or function of people who are accessing these products and providing training capabilities on how to use them and how these products interchange and talk to each other would be very important because that is one of the things I struggled with when I started my journey as an Oracle Database administrator. Having that visibility of all the software products and providing free training and documentation on how you can improve and which products are best suited for integration to your product from Oracle would go a long way to help organizations and professionals. Regarding Oracle Database's AI capabilities, I am very keen on its governance and security. I think more work needs to be done on the security and ensuring that the database for a large number of people is watertight. AI is here to stay; however, governance and more stress testing of the AI capabilities needs to be done to ensure there is no breach of data. I would rate it currently at 6 over 10 and there is room for improvement. As long as there are government policies and Oracle policies that can mitigate any breaches of data and serious security issues, releasing people's records over the internet, there is always room for improvement in that regard.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"This solution is very, very, very stable."
"Technical support is great."
"The stability of Oracle is absolutely perfect."
"The most valuable feature is the high concurrency in terms of transactions."
"I like that it's stable. What's good is that Oracle manages the infrastructure. We have got better because they update the server by default or whenever it's needed. They try to fix it server by server because of their own support plans."
"It is really stable, and we haven't had any outages."
"Oracle database offers one of the industry's best diagnostic infrastructure that enables expert DBA to know exactly how system behaves under different workload, thus able to proactively prevent any performance bottlenecks or quickly respond to exceptional situation or even be able to predict future performance."
"You can scale the solution without any issues."
"A huge benefit of Tibero is its licensing costs are low."
"Tibero is very easy to setup and maintain."
"Tibero is a relational database management system, which supports disaster recovery, active cluster, active storage, etc."
"Tibero uses Hyper-Threading architecture, which is incredibly fast."
"Tibero has the mission to deliver reliable performance with a lower ownership cost."
"It is incredibly fast, much faster than Oracle in terms of compiling and processing speeds, very reliable and secure, never crashes or gets overloaded, the true data never gets falsified or corrupted, it is very easy to port your projects over, and it is considerably cheaper than any other software on the market."
"Migration from Oracle to Tibero is very easy and it took us about ten minutes."
"The most valuable feature is compatibility with the Oracle database."
 

Cons

"The product requires higher expertise compared to Microsoft. It could be easy to use."
"The software really doesn't need any improvement, but the way they do the billing should be improved. They charge by all the chips on the server, whether you use them or not. If you have a server that has 64 chips on it and you use one chip, they charge you for 64, and that's a terrible business model."
"I have been looking for a virtualization database engine from Oracle. They have third-party vendors that can do it but if Oracle comes with its own virtual engine, it would be helpful. Additionally, the solution could be more user-friendly and improve the Transparent Data Encryption."
"They should reduce its price and provide faster support."
"I only touched the online support and it's really not very useful because it's very difficult to find what you're looking for."
"The price should be lower."
"Oracle Database's migration capabilities could be improved because it's very difficult. So even if you migrate where you host your data, be it on Windows SQL Server, there is a problem because migrating the package is highly complex. The technical support could also be faster."
"Oracle already has cheaper pricing than others, but cheaper pricing is not enough for a cloud solution at this point."
"There could be more user friendly FAQs online and included in the software."
"In PL/SQL code, there is a scope of improvement. We expect more PL/SQL packages should be included in the next release."
"Manual installation is a bit tricky, but one can get used to it."
"The knowledge base is quite small and should be expanded."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"My company has opted for perpetual licensing. We only need to make payments toward the licensing of the product."
"The Oracle license is quite expensive, and we pay on a yearly basis."
"Oracle Databases license and maintenance prices are too high. The government ministry of finance gives us our budget and this solution is too expensive."
"I do not have first-hand knowledge of the price of the support. However, I have heard from my seniors or the experienced people who work on the pricing and scaling, the price of Oracle is a bit higher. The reason is Oracle provides enterprise-level applications, only large enterprises can afford Oracle applications or tools."
"Oracle Database could make the documentation better around licensing. The way you have to access software from Oracle is difficult. You have to go through the licensing lawyer to understand what your reach is when you subscribe to one unit. I wish the documents were easier to understand for everyone. This is a problem I have always grappled with and it's not changed. Having clarity is even more important now that I'm thinking of having a hybrid setup for the database in the cloud for high availability."
"The price of Oracle Database could improve, it is expensive and they are paid annually. We are looking for lower pricing and flexible pricing plans, they are very rigid in the price."
"We have a subscription."
"The tool is expensive. Compared to its stability and eligibility, the tool is expensive, but if I consider the tool's ROI to be better, the tool is affordable with its set of features."
"The overall costs are very low compared to Oracle."
"The price of Tibero is cheaper than that of Oracle."
