My customers don't use the solution's automation features. DB as a service solution is new to my customers, who don't know the solution. Our goal is to increase the knowledge of our customers. I would recommend the solution to other users because it's a new solution that has more functionalities. It's similar to a cloud solution but can be deployed on-premises or in the cloud according to the customer's needs. With this solution, the customer can recreate a cloud environment in their private cloud, and it's really interesting. Overall, I rate the solution a nine out of ten.

I wanted a tool that offers enough monitoring for everything related to load balancing in my databases. This seems to be a highly valuable feature of Nutanix Database Service. We want our database admins to have greater control when monitoring so that the databases we use today are more flexible, and the storage capacities can also be monitored. We only deployed it last month and haven't used it on a wider scale, but so far, it's perfect. Judging from the migration alone, Nutanix looks much faster than VMware. It has increased the uptime.

Valuable Features

"Nutanix Era effectively reduces operational overheads by streamlining the application team's implementation of multiple environments."
"Management and provision are the most important features of Nutanix Database Service."
"The time to provision the database went from taking a couple of days to now taking a few minutes. That is the immediate impact we saw. It helped the team to focus more. They can now be focused on support rather than spending time provisioning, which is a repetitive activity."

Room for Improvement

"Era should be compatible with various environments, such as VMware and Red Hat, to be hypervisor agnostic."
"The solution can increase its database compatibility and backup options."
"There will always be room for improvement, there is nothing perfect from day one. There are some technical challenges that we have with NDS. I believe with time it will be sorted out."

Pricing

"On a scale from one to ten, where one is cheap and ten is expensive, I rate the solution's pricing a five out of ten."
"The tool is expensive."
"The price of the solution is expensive."
