Tools and dashboard enable us to view our peak loads and to tune the system as we go, reducing costs
Confidential Computing is really the key for us because of the security requirements for HIPAA compliance. With HIPAA compliance, there are policies and rules in place on the ability to look at a patient's data. There are rules around security, encryption, and decryption on any part of that data. When you put in the data, it is encrypted when it goes to storage, and when you pull the data back, it has to be decrypted. And you have to have two-phase authentication built into that. The Confidential Computing adds another layer of security to the storage infrastructure, which is pretty slick stuff. The NetApp service's high availability is very important when it comes to upscale and downscale. Our system is a digital system so it requires immediate response for telemedicine. When your patients are going through a telemedicine session, you need the video to work properly and respond in a timely manner, and the doctors are actually taking notes regarding that specific patient session. In terms of its storage snapshot efficiencies, the service is highly efficient. We are only doing things in small batches right now because we have not converted all of the data, but we have tested them in the Google Cloud and they work efficiently.

Pros

"In terms of its storage snapshot efficiencies, the service is highly efficient. We are only doing things in small batches right now because we have not converted all of the data, but we have tested them in the Google Cloud and they work efficiently."
"High availability is very important to us because we have a production environment. High availability is the highest priority for us to continue keeping our systems running."
"Storage was taking up maybe 10 to 20% of my life at the startup, and now it takes up zero. I was personally running all the infrastructure for the company. Now that we've moved to NetApp, I don't have to worry about making sure it's up and running. It's made my life personally much better."
"The product's most valuable features are differential and cumulative backup functionality."
"The interface is good."
"Replication and performance tuning are valuable features."
"The most valuable feature is the ability to perform encrypted backups after any learning."
"The product works very fast. It automates a lot of operations in the background."
"From the database perspective, Oracle is the best."
"Oracle Database Backup Service is an easy-to-use consolidation solution that's dashboard-driven."
"The backup is reliable and intuitive."
 

Cons

"I would like for the sales team to get in contact more often and let me know what I should be doing next, what we should be doing about new features. So it would be nice if I heard a little bit more from him. From a technology perspective, I have no complaints."
"The user interface has room for improvement. We would like this service to be more integrated with Azure, which is very easy to manage and use. It was easy to create volumes and add capacity pools in Azure, but in Google Cloud, we can only create separate volumes. We need more management or configuration options in the user interface."
"It would help if they increased the area in which they employ artificial intelligence, by starting to do assessments on the environments, to project those. They're not using any AI tools, currently, on the administrative side."
"It's already fast, but still, they could improve the speed."
"The product's technical support services need improvement in terms of response time."
"The solution needs to add an archive function."
"Deployment is overly complex and could be streamlined."
"We cannot use the product with other brands."
"They should base their strategy according to the country and the regulations there, and focus more on the on-premises deployment."
"Oracle Database Backup Service is not a cheap solution."
"We encounter issues while restoring differential and cumulative backups."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"We don't need so much space, and there is no option to pay as we go or use just what we need. Also, the only way to increase performance is by increasing the level of the service."
"On a scale from one to ten, where one is cheap, and ten is expensive, I rate Oracle Database Backup Service a seven or eight out of ten."
"It's an expensive solution and is an area that needs improvement."
"The only problem with Oracle is its pricing."
"Price is always an area that could be made better, as it is quite expensive."
"The platform is expensive."
"The platform is expensive."
