Analytics features have improved our reporting workflows and support data‑driven decisions
The feature is called Oracle R Enterprise, and I have not worked with it. I have not used Oracle Enterprise. I am hearing about it for the first time. We have not used machine learning. We do not work with it for creating any data models from machine learning. My overall rating for this product is 8.

High-speed shared storage has accelerated AI research workflows and supports massive job queues
The best features Weka offers are high speed, exceptional performance, and reliability. It is probably the best file system I have ever used. These features have helped my workflows and users by enabling us to train and perform inferencing of AI workflows of proteins against target diseases, which allows us to run jobs in approximately half the time that we would with slower storage. Weka is always available, incredibly reliable, and backed up, so we could not do this work without it. Additionally, Weka is incredibly easy to use because there is a web UI that allows us to create and resize file systems at will, making different directory structures available to different users at any given time, and the speed is exceptional. Weka has positively impacted my organization because we previously had NFS, which would take down the cluster when under high load. Now we have no concerns about highly loaded multiple thousands of jobs running simultaneously against this file system. The system handles it without any issues. To share more about the scale, we have anywhere between 1,000 to 10,000 jobs in the queue at any given time, and the system handles it without any problems. Our volumes are approximately half a petabyte on one system and about a third of a petabyte on another system for various storage uses, and it enables all our work to go efficiently.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"When it comes to data mining, I am acquainted with most or all of the Oracle tools and have had a positive experience with them."
"Oracle Advanced Analytics effectively prevents threats and helps maintain a secure network environment."
"Oracle is number one in the world for security, safety, and privacy."
"Oracle Data Mining provides a powerful functionality as it enables users to discover new insights hidden in data."
"One of the valuable features is the ability to pull together multiple sources of information and the tools are easy to use which is the main factor."
"The dashboard interface is intuitive and the user is able to interact with it to receive good results from the analytic."
"We have used Oracle Data Miner, which has a drag-and-drop interface that creates the workflow and is easy to use to build workflow-based modeling."
"When needed, we will work closely with Oracle support and implement their workaround in our application."
"There are many options where you can fill all of the data pre-processing options that you can implement when you're importing the data. You can also normalize the data and standardize it in an easier way."
"It doesn’t cost anything to use the product."
"Weka is a very nice tool and it helped me to solve any machine learning problem in one minute."
"The path of machine learning in classification and clustering is useful. The GUI can get you results. No programming is needed. No need to write down your script first or send to your model or input your data."
"The interface is very good, and the algorithms are the very best."
"It’s pretty straightforward, it's user-friendly, it’s free, and with YouTube videos, online guides, and e-books on machine learning using Weka, you can quickly learn to use its good interface for data visualization, filtering, and creating different scenarios and instances."
"In Weka, anyone can access the program without being a programmer, which is a good feature since the entry cost is very low."
"My main recommendation is that if you want artificial intelligence, or machine learning, go for an easy and quick tool like Weka, otherwise, any language will have a more expensive entry cost."
 

Cons

"The performance, scalability and queries should be addressed, as well as the data distribution of certain data techniques."
"Since a separate Oracle database is needed, the data loading and cleansing the raw data can be a time consuming process."
"I would like to see an improvement in the ease of implementing customized data sources and the like."
"Basic capabilities, less professional than would be expected from a company dealing with databases as a core business."
"It is not a really easy product to use, so you have to do a lot of configuration."
"There are some transactions we have not been able to find through the dashboard."
"One area for product improvement is the user experience, particularly when navigating through screens."
"Problems in handling huge data sets."
"For production, it's not the best option."
"A few people said it became slow after a while."
"The product is good, but I would like it to work with big data. I know it has a Spark integration they could use to do analysis in clusters, but it's not so clear how to use it."
"Not particularly user friendly."
"The solution doesn’t really have very good technical support."
"If you have one missing value in your dataset and this missing value belongs to a specific attribute and the attribute is a numeric attribute and there is only one missing data, whenever you import this data, the problem is that Weka cannot understand that this is a numeric field. It converts everything into a string, and there is no way to convert the string into numerical math. It's really very complicated."
"I believe is there are a few newer algorithms that are not present in the Weka libraries. Whereas, for example, if I want to have a solution that involves deep learning, so I don't think that Weka has that capability. So in that case I have to use Python for ... predict any algorithms based on deep learning."
"If there are a lot more lines of code, then we should use another language."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The solution is priced well."
"As far as I know, Weka is a freeware tool, and I am not aware if they have an online solution or if it is a commercial product."
"Currently, I am using an open-source version so I don't know much about the price of this solution."
"The solution is free and open-source."
"We use the free version now. My faculty is very small."
