User access control has improved but monitoring and integration features require more flexibility
Oracle OUD can be improved. Compared to the 11g version, they have already improved many things in 12c. For monitoring purposes, they can enhance it further. Currently, many people are using third-party tools such as Grafana, Dynatrace, Splunk, or ELK stack. Oracle OUD should leverage these tools for better monitoring integration. Additional features that could be improved include automatic tuning for JVMs, automatic tuning recommendations for JVM or any caching or index perspective, REST APIs for customer-facing apps, MFA settings, version control for schemas, and schema validation. It would be beneficial if they provided a GUI-based schema designer. Additionally, if they could simplify Oracle OUD proxy for cloud load balancing, similar to Ping's proxy concept, that would be great.
