Helps to store Docker containers and images but deployment can be complex

If there were a way to use containers as tasks directly, that would simplify things. Currently, when we use EC2 instances, scaling horizontally means increasing the instance count by five times, which might not be cost-effective. Maybe using containers directly for tasks could be a better option. Setting up this product initially does take quite a bit of time, and maintaining it also requires effort. Doing it via command line would be challenging, so I find it easier to manage through the interface.

Suitable for OCI environment but needs to improve pricing

We haven’t had any problems with the setup of Oracle. The deployment will take less than seven to ten days since it can give good reports. For deployment, we first need to understand the customer requirements and build the architecture around the deployment. We have the customer sign off on it and then go into the software deployment side. This is the proper life cycle of how to do it in the enterprise space. There are a lot of thoughts around the initial way or how we need to structure and architect the environment. For enterprises, it is a complex process. It will take one to two months to have all the sign-offs before we can go into implementation. It is followed across all the installations. I rate the initial setup of the solution a ten 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

"What I like most about Amazon ECR is that it's swift."

"The autoscaling functionality is the main beneficial feature of Amazon ECR. It simplifies management, but some configurations can complicate things a bit."

"The most valuable aspect of ECR is its user-friendliness."

"There are no issues. The service is remarkably stable."

"The technical support services are excellent."

"One feature of Amazon ECR that I find particularly useful is its web interface, which makes management easy. The ability to manage and support token image updates is crucial for us. Moreover, utilizing load balancers via AWS features allows us to manage all traffic."

"The integration with AWS services is very easy, and the deployment and initial setup are pretty straightforward."

"The most valuable feature of Amazon ECR is its ease of use and the centralized management console."

More Amazon ECR pros

"In terms of features, upgradeability to the latest version of Oracle suites has been a good feature. All we have to do is just patching or an upgrade, it's pretty easy. Then, it gets regularly updated. That's what I like about it."

"I am impressed with the tool's upscaling and resiliency features."

"The most valuable features of the Oracle Cloud Platform are good visualization and analytics. The solution is very well integrated with predictive analytics and forecasting. These features go beyond the traditional reports and visualization."

"The most valuable features are the manageability and the user interface."

"It is more secure and more controlled than an on-premises deployment."

"Overall, I would say that Oracle Cloud provides support with zero down time and the high probability is very good."

"The solution is stable."

"The main benefit is that you're getting all of the resources you require on a subscription base. So, you get to pay as you go instead of having to have a CAPEX, you convert your CAPEX to OPEX to cover the data center cost."

More Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) pros

Cons

"There is no room for improvement mentioned; it's good as is."

"It would be great if they could also provide a reference to fix the errors or vulnerabilities in the images rather than just notifying us about them."

"The Amazon ECR interface could benefit from improvements to enhance user experience."

"I suggest making it more aligned with the Docker registry version two API specification."

"The UI for managing ECR and other services could be improved. It could be user-friendly compared to other cloud services."

"Providing more ways to scan the image integrated with ECR would enhance security in the software development life cycle."

"Improving the documentation for easy understanding will help bring in more clients to use Amazon ECR."

"The documentation could be improved."

More Amazon ECR cons

"Customer service could be improved."

"Oracle Cloud's support could be improved because its second-line support has weak engineers who handle stuff a little bit slowly."

"The price of the subscription is too high and excludes some potential customers."

"The pricing model of Oracle Cloud Platform is an area of concern. Oracle Cloud Platform should be made available at a cheap price."

"The deployment from on-premises to the cloud is a bit complicated."

"I would like the Oracle Cloud Platform to have a more user-friendly UI similar to Microsoft Azure."

"Oracle Cloud is not a user-friendly tool. From an improvement perspective, I want Oracle Cloud to be more user-friendly."

"The product features related to the manufacturing domain must be improved."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The main difference between Amazon ECR and other solutions, like Google Kubernetes Engine, is that I haven't personally used GKE. However, I know that GKE costs around $60 per month, which is quite cost-effective."

"Amazon ECR does not have a high cost."

"My company currently has Amazon ECR under the pay-as-you-go model. The tool is more affordable than Azure Container Registry, and it's worth the money."

"The solution's price is reasonable compared to its competitors"

"The product is expensive."

"The solution's prices are high in India as compared to the US."

"The subscription is a pay-as-you-go model, with fees that are dependent on usage."

"Its pricing is complex, but as partners, we can get away with quite a bit of discounting because we deal with them directly. I would rate their pricing probably a one or two out of five because they're quite expensive. Microsoft Azure will probably be the cheapest because depending on the Microsoft product that you have, they have some sort of bundling. There are things that they give you to get you onto Azure. AWS is probably somewhere in the middle."

"The pricing for Oracle Cloud services is reasonable. Additionally, compared to other service providers, Oracle has a substantial presence and established infrastructure in Bangladesh. Considering all these factors together makes Oracle Cloud an ideal choice and a strong contender in the market."

"In Oracle Cloud Platform, one needs to make payments towards the subscription charges."

"Oracle Cloud's pricing is competitive. The tool changes its pricing when there is a change in its architecture."

"The solution is expensive. I would rate the pricing as ten out of ten, where one is cheap and ten is expensive."

"The cost may be a bit high for many potential users."

"It is cheaper as a solution model. It isn’t cheaper than SAP but offers more features and competition."
