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

"It is very fast. The response times are very fast."
"The latest version is a lot more organized than the previous version. We can check out the regular files and our dictionaries and our created files, which are a little better organized right now."
"Oracle Database is easy to install and set up."
"This solution is stable and we have not had any issues."
"A really large and very useful language to process data."
"I like the performance power and the interface of the solution."
"It's fast compared to other databases."
"Oracle Database is fast and easy to use."
"Tibero is a relational database management system, which supports disaster recovery, active cluster, active storage, etc."
"Tibero has the mission to deliver reliable performance with a lower ownership cost."
"A huge benefit of Tibero is its licensing costs are low."
"Tibero uses Hyper-Threading architecture, which is incredibly fast."
"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."
"Tibero is very easy to setup and maintain."
"The most valuable feature is compatibility with the Oracle database."
 

Cons

"Real zero-downtime patching, that's what I want. When you have a fallback system with RAC and Data Guard, the autonomous help framework could support it, but collecting the logs and reading the logs is still a nightmare."
"Right now we are paying per license to Oracle and for whatever additional features we are leveraging. For that we need to pay extra on top of the license; there are a lot of additional costs, and that is the reason we are looking for open source databases now."
"Technical support is definitely challenging as they are not always the most forthcoming with information, nor are they the most highly-trained techs when you open SRs."
"The additional options are expensive. If you want to buy a rack, partitioning, diagnostics, or tuning, those options are expensive, but it is difficult to say if it is a negative or not."
"The integration with other vendor solutions needs improvement. It is difficult to connect to other hardware."
"We have downtime during upgrades that can last from hours to days."
"Initial setup was complex because of the odd way the application used the database, the application vendor's conversion tools, and our stringent requirements."
"We believe that the usability could be improved, especially within the data lakehouse. We found content management to be a little bit more simpler within the GUI part."
"The knowledge base is quite small and should be expanded."
"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."
"There could be more user friendly FAQs online and included in the software."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The pricing is something that Oracle should work on to make the product more affordable, especially to businesses in third-world countries."
"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."
"It is an excellent product, as long as the organization can afford the price tag."
"The licensing cost is not based on a yearly subscription but rather on the number of devices used annually."
"You have to purchase extra licenses for Oracle Data Guard."
"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."
"Its price is a little bit high in terms of competitiveness. It is a little bit expensive. For any additional features, there are additional costs."
"We pay for a yearly licensing subscription. Funds permitting, we have plans to increase usage for Oracle Database in the new year."
"The overall costs are very low compared to Oracle."
"The price of Tibero is cheaper than that of Oracle."
