We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"What I like best about Oracle Exadata is its good performance. It's also a very fast solution.""It is the best solution for OLTP and data warehousing.""The offloading of data to the SIM is a valuable feature.""The technical support team are real professionals. I admire their technical skills and supports. Their supports are really admirable.""Oracle Exadata has very good hardware.""Oracle is easy to use for peripheral things, such as the data vault and the data firewall, data sync, and partitions. These are the features that give an edge to other databases.""Compression is a great feature, where one can really save a lot of storage.""The storage capacity and the performance of Oracle Exadata are good. When comparing the performance to other technologies it is very good. I am satisfied with the management of the solution."

"The solution has a powerful aggregating feature""You can create your own rules that include mathematic calculations."

More TIBCO Live Datamart Pros →

"It's one of the fastest databases in the market. It's easy to use. From a maintenance perspective it's a good product. The segmentation, or architecture of the product is different than other databases such as Oracle. So even in 10 years, the data distribution for such segments will not affect other segments. The query performance of the product, for complex queries, is very good. It has good integration with Hadoop.""Pivotal Greenplum's shared-nothing architecture.""Very fast for query processing.""Tanzu Greenplum's most valuable features include the integration of modern data science approaches across an MPP platform.""It's super easy to deploy and it also supports different languages and analytics.""It works very well with large database queries.""A very good, open-source platform.""With VMware Tanzu Greenplum, one can make a huge database table and analyze the queries by adding in the SQL command. Some hint or command for the query goes over the multi-parallel execution."

Cons
"The solution takes a lot of time to clone the environment. I would like to see some improvement in the cloning support or the time it takes on the storage side.""It would be good if Exadata made some new features available regarding data retrieval and speed capacity functions.""The performance could be improved.""It's too expensive per terabyte. It's complex.""The setup is a little bit complex. We would like to see the installation part get easier.""There is room for improvement with the handling of the Temp IO, which is often used for JOIN statements.""We had issues with system restoration.""The solution lacks a visualized console."

More Oracle Exadata Cons →

"The solution's setup could be quicker and easier.""Improvements need to be made on the load balancing side."

More TIBCO Live Datamart Cons →

"Implementation takes a long time.""We would like to see Greenplum maintain a closer relationship with and parity to features implemented in PostgreSQL.""They should add more analytics. Their documentation could also be improved so that I don't have to bother my co-workers and tech support so often.""Lacks sufficient inbuilt machine-learning functions for complex use cases.""I saw some limitation with respect to the column store, and removing this would be an improvement.""Tanzu Greenplum's compression for GPText could be made more efficient.""If you have a user consuming a huge load of resources, it takes down the entire system.""Initial setup is a little complex. It took around two weeks to deploy."

    Overview

    Oracle Exadata allows enterprises to run any Oracle Database workload with the highest performance, scale, availability, and security on fully compatible cloud and on-premises infrastructure. Exadata uses a scale-out design with unique optimizations that include persistent memory, SQL query offload, and built-in resource management to optimize performance for OLTP, analytics, machine learning, and mixed workloads running in consolidated environments. By running hundreds or thousands of optimized Autonomous Database and Exadata Database instances on Exadata Cloud or Cloud@Customer infrastructure, customers are able to minimize their infrastructure, reduce management, improve developer productivity, and lower total costs by up to 40%, as described in Wikibon’s analysis (PDF).

    The main benefit of Exadata is its speed. It hosts operating systems, CPU memory, and hard drives. It runs all types of databases, including online transaction systems, processors, and data warehouses, while remedying the poor performances of older databases.

    Oracle Exadata features a simple and fast database storage system that protects and backs up your critical data. It accelerates data warehouse performance for faster access to business information and data. It is the ideal database solution for companies looking to build up their infrastructure from scratch.

    Oracle Exadata Database Machine Key Benefits

    • Rapid, reliable, and scalable deployment: Exadata is the most cost-efficient and highest performance platform for running Oracle databases. Exadata’s deployment is very straightforward since the database servers, storage servers, and network are pre-configured, pre-tuned and pre-tested by Oracle experts. This ensures that all your components work seamlessly together. Any Oracle Database application can be seamlessly migrated to and from the Exadata Database Machine, with no changes to the original application.

    • Powerful, cutting-edge hardware: Exadata is the most versatile database platform. It uses powerful database servers and a scaled-out, intelligent storage layer.

    • Accelerate database processing: Exadata Storage Server implements a unique, highly efficient database-optimized storage infrastructure that enables Exadata’s unparalleled performance without any of the bottlenecks that traditional storage experiences. Each storage server contains CPU processors that are used to offload database processing. The CPUs in the storage servers do not replace database CPUs, but work alongside them to accelerate database workloads.

    Reviews from Real Users

    Oracle Exadata stands out among its competitors for a number of reasons. Two major ones are its robust performance and its wide variety of database features that make it a comprehensive database solution.

    Adriano S., an IT system integrator at a financial services firm, writes, "Oracle Exadata's performance is one of its best features. We are very satisfied with it. The previous equipment used to make a payment for all the government employees used to take at least two days for some of the transactions. Now, it will take hours to make the same amount of payments. Another thing is the flexibility to organize all our databases. We can use it with new features that come with this version of Oracle 19c, which is the container database. With container databases, we can work with many databases, organized, and segregated, and still access the functions and management, the things that most of the technical people like to have in place."

    Paulo X., a sales manager at LTA-RH Informatica, notes, "Regarding features, there are so many that we can offer to customers. When we sell Exadata Cloud, there are many options to choose from, especially when it comes to enterprise database options. In my experience, the main features that are appreciated are various ones like GPS and the assortment of security options."
