PALANTIR DATA ENGINEER at a healthcare company with 10,001+ employees

Unified healthcare pipelines have improved data trust and accelerated operational decisions

One challenge regarding how Palantir Foundry can be improved is the learning curve. Foundry has a very broad ecosystem with Ontology, Pipeline Builder, Code Repositories, and AI integrations. For new engineers or business users onboarding, it can take time, especially if they are coming from more traditional data platforms. Better documentation, simplified onboarding paths, and more beginner-friendly examples would help accelerate adoption. Another area is debugging complexity. While lineage and monitoring are strong features, troubleshooting deeply interconnected pipelines can still become difficult in a large enterprise environment. Sometimes error logs and pipeline failure messages could be more descriptive or developer-friendly, especially for distributed PySpark jobs. Another pain point is customization limitations in certain UI-driven components. While low-code tools are great for rapid development, highly customized workflows sometimes still require engineering workarounds or deeper technical implementation. The platform is extremely capable, but improvements around usability, debugging experience, DevOps flexibility, and ecosystem openness would make it even more effective for enterprise engineering teams.

GTM Lead at Capgemini

The solution is seamless, but the database sometimes leads to confusion

We used to have multiple different kinds of databases, which internally, had different compliance levels. Retention management is very different now. If the policy is live and the claim has been completed, I couldn't archive the claim. I needed to keep a reference integrity of that claim and understand which policy paid out the claim. With this solution, the policy came in six months ago and qualified for archiving. The claim had been paid and in every environment, the claim had been closed, including the reporting system, the claims system, etc. With the payment set gateway, I can just go and archive. But, we had a hard time during this process. I rate the overall solution a seven out of ten.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Previously, the team used to take more than a week to gather data for a particular entity and make it ready for downstream use cases, and that was reduced from seven days to close to 30 to 45 minutes because everything was automated using pipelines and schedules."

"Combining data sources and hosting models in Palantir Foundry has helped my work because it is convenient to work in one environment rather than moving from one application to another, as Palantir Foundry allows for that one-stop shop where I can accomplish much of the work."

"The solution provides an end-to-end integrated tech stack that takes care of all utility/infrastructure topics for you."

"Palantir Foundry has positively impacted my organization by increasing the operational throughput of the yard, which focuses on building new ships or repairing existing ones."

"Compared to other SaaS tools, Palantir Foundry is definitely a time-saver, though I do not have specific metrics to share."

"From my experience, one of the best features Palantir Foundry offers is that you have everything in one ecosystem."

"The best features Palantir Foundry offers for my work include that building the ontology is very easy and it is easy to use."

"Live video sessions enhance the available documentation and allow you to ask questions directly."

More Palantir Foundry pros

"They lead in terms of business functions, and no other solution has business functions already implemented to perform business analysis, with a lot of prebuilt business functions for machine learning and orchestration that we can use directly to get an analysis out from the existing enterprise data."

"The most valuable feature is the S/4HANA 1909 On-Premise"

"Having this solution enables us to approach our clients to upgrade their databases, and we upgrade them according to their business requirements."

"SAP is one of the most seamless ERPs that have integrated SAP archiving within Excel. I have not seen this with any other database."

"Its connection to on-premise products is the most valuable. We mostly use the on-premise connection, which is seamless. This is what we prefer in this solution over other solutions. We are using it the most for the orchestration where the data is coming from different categories. Its other features are very much similar to what they are giving us in open source. Their push-down approach is the most advantageous, where they push most of the processing on to the same data source. This means that they have a serverless kind of thing, and they don't process the data inside a product such as Data Hub. They process the data from where the data is coming out. If it is coming from HANA, to capture the data or process it for analytics, orchestration, or management, they go to the HANA database and give it out. They don't process it on Data Hub. This push-down approach increases the processing speed a little bit because the data is processed where it is sitting. That's the best part and an advantage. I have used another product where they used to capture the data first and then they used to process it and give it. In Data Hub, it is in reverse. They process it first and give it, and then they put their own manipulations. They lead in terms of business functions. No other solution has business functions already implemented to perform business analysis. They have a lot of prebuilt business functions for machine learning and orchestration, which we can use directly to get an analysis out from the existing data. Most of the data is sitting as enterprise data there. That's a major advantage that they have."

Cons

"For example, exporting data from Palantir Foundry is very difficult and has many limitations."

"The Workshop application could be improved because it is not very customizable, but it is still very strong."

"The startup pricing is high, causing concern despite being cost-effective in terms of total cost of ownership."

"The workflow could be improved."

"I want to say that Palantir Foundry is quite expensive; it is not so easy for budget review and budget transformation of the company, which is quite expensive."

"From an organizational perspective, it is advisable to note that initially, the cost may be low, but as time passes, cost can be a significant factor in deciding whether to continue using Palantir Foundry or not, so those considerations should be taken into account."

"Regarding pricing, I heard about it, and until last year, the license was one million dollars. They have now increased this to four million dollars, which is high."

"Sometimes it takes time to refresh the UI, especially since it is cloud-based."

More Palantir Foundry cons

"Nowadays there are some inconsistencies in data bases, however, they upgrade and release the versions to market."

"Its performance needs improvement. It is a little slow. It is not the best in the market, and there are other products that are much better than this."

"The company has everything offshore."

"In 2018, connecting it to outside sources, such as IoT products or IoT-enabled big data Hadoop, was a little complex. It was not smooth at the beginning. It was unstable. It took a lot of time for the initial data load. Sometimes, the connection broke, and we had to restart the process, which was a major issue, but they might have improved it now. It is very smooth with SAP HANA on-premise system, SAP Cloud Platform, and SAP Analytics Cloud. It could be because these are their own products, and they know how to integrate them. With Hadoop, they might have used open-source technologies, and that's why it was breaking at that time. They are providing less embedded integration because they want us to use their other products. For example, they don't want to go and remove SAP Analytics Cloud and put everything in Data Hub. They want us to use SAP Analytics Cloud somewhere else and not inside the Data Hub. On the integration part, it lacks real-time analytics, and it is slow. They should embed the SAP Analytics Cloud inside Data Hub or support some kind of analysis. They do provide some analysis, but it is not extensive. They are moreover open source. So, we need a lot of developers or data scientists to go in and implement Python algorithms. It would be better if they can provide their own existing algorithms and give some connections and drop-down menus to go and just configure those. It will make things really quick by increasing the embedded integrations. It will also improve the process efficiency and processing power. Its performance needs improvement. It is a little slow. It is not the best in the market, and there are other products that are much better than this. In terms of technology and performance, it is a little slow as compared to Microsoft and other data orchestration products. I haven't used other products, but I have read about those products, their settings, and the milliseconds that they do. In Azure Purview, they say that they can copy, manage, or transform the data within milliseconds. They say that they can transform 100 gigabytes of data within three to five seconds, which is something SAP cannot do. It generally takes a lot of time to process that much amount of data. However, I have never tested out Azure."
