Serves as a data lake for database activity and helps to centralize and normalize data

Pros

"It allows us to run models against it and do reports against it without understanding the different database technologies."

Cons

"It can be simplified as it is a little complicated."

Product version discussed: 10.3
A database security solution with a valuable GBDI feature

Pros

"The centralization of the data is probably the most useful feature because we span multiple database technologies. We also find the GBDI portion of it very helpful. "

Cons

"It would be better if it were more user-friendly. Right now, it's a little bit of a complicated product to use. Another problem that we have is with encrypted traffic on Oracle. This is because it requires a database outage. That's a pain in the butt because you're monitoring critical systems, and they don't like outages."
