Functional administrative controls, highly scalable, and reliable
ESB will connect in real-time data between the two systems. For example, for one of our customers, we implemented Salesforce and with an on-premises system but the account master data and project master data did not work together. As soon as it requests the information, I have to fix the data from the SAP on-premise with this solution. This is the use case for service and sales implementations. The solution has enabled us to be able to fix our data by combining the cloud and on-premises systems which has helped a lot.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Performance is everything and this has proven itself over the years."
"With Oracle Service Bus, we can connect with different types of systems. Another feature I like the most is the security feature."
"Overall it is a pretty good solution."
"The communication between applications is already defined, which means that you don't have to redefine your service infrastructure at the lower level."
"For situations where they are many integration points, whether they are on-premises or in the cloud, this is a good solution."
"Oracle Service Bus is a great tool for handling data and we use it to bridge the gap between the more modern technologies we have and our older technologies like mainframe."
"Service Bus is good at routing the transformation."
"What I found most valuable in Oracle Service Bus is its time to market. It's excellent."
"I have found the best feature are the administrative controls."
"The solution has enabled us to be able to fix our data by combining the cloud and on-premises systems which has helped a lot."
 

Cons

"It would be ideal if they could optimize it a bit."
"If you talk about the robustness of the product, TIBCO is better. The performance of TIBCO is better compared to Oracle."
"While I have not used the latest versions, resource efficiency could be optimized, considering past experiences"
"The pricing of the product could be better. It's a bit high."
"Security features can be improved to better protect the server."
"The cost of the solution is too high. There are cheaper better solutions out there."
"The main problem could be related to timeout issues. This can happen due to legacy systems that might not allow the use of microservices."
"There is significant room for improvement in the monitoring capabilities."
"This solution is running on the Eclipse platform and this is where all the designing takes place. The Eclipse performance should be improved. The Open Studio tool we have been using for the development is not up to the industry standard and the performance should be improved."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The pricing is on the higher side."
"The price of this solution is better than the subscription-based Mule ESB."
"Oracle Service Bus is a bit expensive"
"This is a very expensive product and the price varies depending on factors such as the number of processors and the number of users. Our licensing fees are approximately $300,000."

"We have an unlimited yearly license."
