Real-time data capture has accelerated releases and now improves trust in our data warehouse
The checkpoints would help me to figure out where the problem was if there's any lag, but I had to do a lot of manual work to figure out where the lag is. Striim would not intuitively tell me the culprit table or database behind the lag. I believe that is an improvement Striim could definitely do. Passwords were an issue. Property variables were not supported for passwords, meaning I had to make sure the password is manually populated. I believe if Striim could read from AWS secrets or its own secret mechanism to store the password, that would really save a lot of time so that I don't have to keep updating the password whenever there is any change. The user experience of triggering alerts if there's any lag which Striim identified, which is outside normal processing time, could intrinsically be done by Striim. I believe that was lacking. I would wait for Striim to tell me, instead of me going and validating whether Striim is lagging behind. If Striim could itself tell me that it's seeing a lot more volume than expected, that would really make me give it a higher number.

Data governance has improved and complex integrations are handled with flexible customization
Regarding Talend Data Fabric, the ease of use and the customization options that are available are particularly valuable. There are a lot of built-in components and features that we can modify in any way we want to transform the data and make it analytics ready. Talend Data Catalog is another product that, when combined with Talend Data Fabric, can be used for the data governance. The stewardship, ownership, and curation happen mainly from the Data Catalog side. Within Talend Data Fabric, the role-based access control is used for user segregations such as security, infrastructure-related or integration-related activities. It bifurcates the roles and responsibilities. From the data standpoint, the RBAC functions with the help of Data Catalog.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Striim acts as the perfect modern bridge for legacy environments, keeping both our development teams and business stakeholders happy."
"Striim is capable of absorbing a large number of transactions, and the difference between the two databases is always less than a second, which demonstrates efficiency and highlights the variety of sources and targets I have used."
"We were confidently in a situation to call Snowflake as a single source of truth, and I believe with Striim, we were able to do that because without Striim, the SLA would be much higher, and there would not have been much confidence in Snowflake."
"Striim is definitely my data migration tool and data reflection syncing tool. It reduces manual intervention because it automatically syncs the data from the warehouse."
"The initial setup is very easy."
"The Talend data integration has been one of the most valuable features."
"Talend has very good support for big data."
"Everything in Talend Data Fabric is GUI-based, making it very user-friendly and easy to learn quickly."
"There are a lot of built-in components and features that we can modify in any way we want to transform the data and make it analytics ready."
"What I find most valuable about this solution is the 900 connectors because it allows me to integrate any tool and any cloud system I need to integrate and they have a connector out of the box."
"It is a smart tool for us to design data pipelines. It lets us populate our three data lake instances. We like this solution for its connection capabilities, since it is very important to be able to use many different types of software. We tested a lot of SAP sources successfully, including cloud sources with SAP. It is also very easy to anonymize data with TIBCO, as well as populating HDFS files, packet files, and raw files. It is very easy to do that with Talend Data Fabric."
"From my experience around Business Intelligence for data and analytics for around twenty-something years, I can say that what I appreciate about Talend Data Fabric is that we can connect sources to everything and be able to customize everything."
 

Cons

"I think Striim could be improved with better pricing and enhanced documentation."
"I would say Striim performance needs improvement because we use more GoldenGate, so I tend to compare GoldenGate with Striim."
"I think the initial schema mapping tool in Striim can have a learning curve when dealing with deeply nested mainframe structures or complex copybooks."
"The user experience of triggering alerts if there's any lag which Striim identified, which is not normal, could intrinsically be done by Striim."
"We encounter issues getting email notifications. They should provide enough information about the configuration process for email components."
"The support is not very good. The team is not well-trained, and resolving a ticket can require several discussions."
"We are currently using version 7.3.1, but preferred the version before. The problem that we currently have is that Talend are releasing patches for Talend Studio every quarter. Our technical team has to be on top of these patches and constantly ensure everything is updated."
"The downside, however, is indeed the pricing, which has been the biggest challenge; since it went to Click, there is no longer a free license version such as Talend Open Studio, so either you pay or you do not have anything."
"Deployment can be difficult, but I didn't test the latest version yet. With Talend products, every release brings a lot of new features and functionalities. This is never a small adaptation, because the tool is maturing, but we need to test the latest version and to check its deployment capabilities."
"Talend's architecture is complex to configure, especially due to the various components involved. It requires a more intricate setup."
"I would like to see better integration with other tools because every tool waiting for approval in terms of leveraging machine learning takes a long time."
"Support is something that drives me crazy these days."

Questions from the Community

What is your experience regarding pricing and costs for Striim?
It's very fair. We had a private cloud, and it's not based on the number of events. It was based on the number of cores and CPU cores.
