We performed a comparison between Oracle Exadata, SAP IQ, and Teradata Cloud Data Warehouse based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out what your peers are saying about Snowflake Computing, Oracle, Teradata and others in Data Warehouse.
"What I found most valuable in Oracle Exadata is its newer technology that gives better performance. It has more recent hardware and significant changes in the architecture, so it's better than older solutions."
"Oracle has reliable solutions and this one is no different."
"This product can noticeably enhance performance of contextual Oracle databases."
"Exadata is a fantastic machine. Two features stand out. The first is the resource input/output management tool that allows you to manage the resources to the neck on the Exadata box."
"The performance of the data is the most important part."
"The most valuable feature is the time to solution."
"We can use virtualization on Exadata."
"They just have a lot of products, and they work well together."
"The column-based technologies (basically all the database for ITP) are used for SAP IQ. It is used as a column-based solution."
"It is very robust for ad hoc DW queries and its columnar compression is unique and valuable."
"Valuable features for us include the compression, speed, fast response time, and easy object maintenance."
"Columnar storage allows high compression, high load rates and high query performance."
"Unbeatable speed and compression with a colummn-structured relational database."
"The primary benefit of SAP IQ is its ability to limit the expansion of the costly SAP HANA database, which has limited storage capacity. This necessitates a form of data management that involves moving data from SAP HANA to SAP NLS, which is essentially archiving. This allows us to retain access to the data via a link whenever it is required."
"The most valuable feature is the ease of running queries."
"The product is reliable."
"The cloud is ten times better than physical hardware; it is more cost-effective and the upgrade process is ten times easier."
"We used the support from Oracle Exadata to complete the implementation."
"We have a little trepidation with the system as it does have a learning curve. Also changing to a binary logging format for us feels like retrograde motion, but sadly almost all Linux variants have moved in this direction."
"The technical support is in need of improvement."
"Sometimes it takes too long time to get help with technical issues."
"It's too expensive per terabyte. It's complex."
"Since the product is an appliance, it is very costly."
"The scalability can be improved as it is not a parallel execution."
"License or upgrade management can be difficult and time consuming because it requires login to a separate console."
"Concurrency and functional error messaging."
"I think the universe should be part of the Sybase IQ tool set."
"Multiplex is very problematic. There are consistency problems in the metadata, meaning it is possible to lose metadata consistency. You should make sure you have healthy backups."
"The solution works best when combined with other SAP solutions. If the environment has other systems other options might be better."
"The organization who owns the product does not support it well and appears not to be doing significant development for the future."
"The room for improvement would be the marketing of the product, because this product is much better than advertised."
"It could be a bit more user-friendly."
"Stability-wise, we have had some issues with automation and the ability to handle large datasets."
"The cost of Teradata Cloud Data Warehouse has room for improvement."
