Featured Reviews

Avinash Gangu - PeerSpot reviewer
Centralizing database tables enhances workflow efficiency for ease of use
I was looking for some content as part of a comparison analysis. However, one of the pain points is that it is way too free-flowing. I have to skim through all the security pages to get to the crux of it. I was looking for a table that suggests which facets such services address with proofs of reference from professional conferences. The document is a 63-page read, making it very difficult to navigate without a summary. I was looking for a summary at the start, however, if I have to do it myself, I might as well integrate from AWS Docs and then Informative Exchange. The current document contains a lot of information, which is great, but there needs to be a summary indicating the story's essence. Unless there's a correction, it is not present in the document.
Laxman  Molugu - PeerSpot reviewer
Enhances operational efficiency with valuable prepackaged content and cost-effective pricing
For organizations that operate within an SAP ecosystem, SAP Process Orchestration is recommended due to its cost-effectiveness and the availability of valuable prepackaged content. It is important to consider the needs of your industry, as SAP Process Orchestration may not meet all requirements in consumer-oriented sectors. I'd rate the solution eight 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

"The solution is stable and reliable."
"The most valuable feature of AWS Database Migration Service is it catches all the history changes, such as inset, observe, and delete. It tracks everything."
"The product is cheaper than all platforms"
"Even if it does break down, it will automatically recover itself and resumes from where it stopped."
"This efficient workflow has been particularly helpful."
"AWS Database Migration Service is good for smaller workloads and provides compatibility."
"If your infrastructure is already on Amazon, it simply makes the most sense to use a tool officially provided by them as an additional service, rather than having to rely on a third-party solution."
"The installation is easy."
"The solution is easy to use."
"The solution provides very good and central logging systems. It offers high flexibility with vertical and horizontal extend capacity."
"It provides essential features such as continuous monitoring of all interfaces are crucial for our needs."
"The most valuable feature of SAP Process Orchestration is its flexibility in being able to build integrations with SAP systems and non-SAP systems."
"Orchestration is beneficial for us."
"I think it is a very stable tool. My company did not have any problem with the tool."
"It is a scalable solution."
"The product has good technical support but you usually will not need it because it is quite stable."
 

Cons

"If they had some sort of functionality where, at a specific point in time, if I want to start a new job, it should automatically pick up from where it has been left rather than having people worry about the exact job number and the timing."
"There are a set of complexities and challenges when a user wants to integrate AWS products with Microsoft products."
"One area that AWS DMS can improve on is its conversion of data types. For example, in Oracle, you have a data type called RAW, but in PostgreSQL there is no such thing. Thus, AWS DMS doesn't know what type I want to use when migrating from Oracle to PostgreSQL, and when performing the migration, AWS DMS changed the RAW data type to the byte data type, which isn't what I wanted."
"In my experience, AWS Database Migration Service performs well for its primary purpose of data migration. One area that could be improved is its support for non-AWS file formats, particularly when integrating data from sources stored outside of AWS. For example, handling AWS Data Lakes, Delta Lake, or Hadoop file formats stored in S3 requires extensive configuration and isn't always straightforward. It would be beneficial to streamline this process to ensure smoother migrations from non-AWS environments to AWS. As for additional functionality, I think enhancing support for these external file formats and simplifying configuration steps would be valuable improvements for the service."
"The cost is a concern. We use DMS because of its simplicity, but the price could definitely be more competitive."
"The performance of data migration could be smoother."
"I was looking for a table that suggests which facets such services address with proofs of reference from professional conferences. The document is a 63 page read, making it very difficult to navigate without a summary."
"This solution can offer more tweaks where the latency can be brought down to fifteen seconds."
"The product roadmap suggests it will approach the end of support in several years, and a lot of innovations are now implemented by SAP not in SAP PO, but in SAP Integration Suite, hence, the platform is stable, but doesn't receive a lot of new features in recent updates."
"Process Orchestration doesn't provide authentication for data sent to us, meaning we have to rely on client certificate-based or basic authentication."
"SAP Process Orchestration breaks down sometimes."
"Some configurations can be a little tricky."
"It is scalable, but there can be performance issues with high data volume or traffic, especially during month ends."
"Process Orchestration needs to provide secure connectivity as no one has any data information."
"It is not a scalable solution for the cloud. I would not recommend this for the cloud."
"It's very difficult to find errors in a simple way."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The pricing is per hour, though I do not have the exact figures. If you have specific questions about the service, a personal support team from Amazon is available, but this will bring in additional costs."
"I rate the product price a seven on a scale of one to ten, where one is a high price, and ten is a low price."
"For Egypt, the product's prices are high, making it a specific problem in one region and not globally."
"I would rate the pricing a seven out of ten."
"AWS Database Migration Service is the least expensive solution, but is still expensive."
"AWS Database Migration Service is very inexpensive."
"Pricing for the solution is reasonable, but could still be reduced."
"Pricing can be improved."
"The cost of SAP products is quite high but the quality is really good."
"It is a very expensive solution. We only pay for the license."
"The product is not a low-priced solution, but I can say that it is competitively priced in the market."
"The price of SAP Process Orchestration was reasonable."
"Looking at market conditions, vendors nowadays are giving products at very low price levels. However, SAP Process Orchestration have not yet reduced their prices. The prices could be reduced a lot to stay competitive."
"We subscribe to annual licenses, and the competitive license cost is reasonable."
"The pricing depends on what type of client you are with SAP and the contract you have. There is a licensing cost that needs to be paid."
"It's not an expensive solution."
