In the future, they should change their licensing policy. Right now, it's quite difficult because you have to pay for cores, number of cores, and it depends— if you use some servers, it's one price, if you use another server like IBM, it's another price and it's complicated. Their licensing model could be improved.

I've been using it for over ten years.

The stability is fine for the time being, but it could be more stable.

The scalability is fine.  I can't complain.

Support is fine. I don't remember having any complaints.  It's quite good.

There is a lot that can improve in Oracle Database. For example, it could be more user-friendly and should be easier to integrate into the cloud.

Oracle Database is highly scalable. It supports the cluster configuration with the hundreds of nodes, the performance is good. The data volume Oracle Database consumes is quite scalable.

I haven't seen huge installations with petabytes of data but I know the solution has good capabilities. If the solution did not have good capabilities the major institutions would not use it.

For my region, all the Oracle support technical support is from India. I have some experience with interacting with them. There have been very few times I have created service requests. Most of the information I am able to find from their knowledge base is available on their website and other resources.

I have previously used Postgres, MariaDB, and Informix.

Oracle corporation invests a lot into its core technology. For example, if you compare it with Postgres, it is capable to handle heavy workloads. Additionally, with Oracle Database you can make very complex database architecture. In freeware solutions, you have to employ 10 times more database administrators than for those who use Oracle. It requires a lot of people for freeware databases.

The initial setup is simple. However, in order to install it correctly, you have to have some experience. You must know where the data must be put. It is better to have assistance when installing the solution. 

The length of time of the installation depends on the installation environment.

Oracle Database requires a lot of maintenance and the amount depends on the scale and the initial requirements. Each project can be very different.

The price of Oracle Database is quite high compared to other solutions. It has a lot of options, such as security for partitioning and real application clusters. These options are not for free. Once you want to use it, you have to pay extra.

I would recommend this solution to others.

I rate Oracle Database an eight out of ten.
