Offers built-in utilities and tools that simplify management

We use it for a medium-sized company and for databases. The database is installed on it because it's best for the database. Efficiency and performance are good for the database as compared to other servers. I work on different general sites, website applications, servers, Linux, etc. Oracle…

The product improves site reliability, but it is not stable, and the initial deployment was a little difficult

It is a stretched cache layer between two data centers. It allows active implementation. We put our application cache data, load it into memory, and make it accessible across multi-data centers The solution improved our site reliability. The stretched cluster is a valuable feature. When we had…

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Oracle Database Appliance provides high stability."

"The most valuable feature of Oracle Database Appliance is the ease of management."

"The solution is simple to use and easy to maintain."

"The tool is a specific and effective system. I am impressed with its usability."

"Oracle is a stable database."

"The database is solid."

"The solution is pretty automated, which takes out the possibility of human error."

"Easy management (it saves a lot of installation and patching time)."

More Oracle Database Appliance pros

"The security is great."

"With VMware Tanzu Greenplum, one can make a huge database table and analyze the queries by adding in the SQL command. Some hint or command for the query goes over the multi-parallel execution."

"We use VMware RabbitMQ to transfer information from one point to another."

"Scalable (Massive) Parallel Processing (MPP) – The ability to bring to bear large amounts of compute against large data sets with Greenplum and the EMC DCA has proven itself to be very effective."

"We have been able to set up a messaging system that facilitates data integration between the software modules that we sell."

"The solution is stable."

"Large amounts of data can be moved pretty fast using the solution."

"RabbitMQ will help to remove a lot of the complexities and create a loosely coupled codebase."

Cons

"Sometimes, we cannot upgrade or patch it easily. The performance needs to improve."

"Oracle Database Appliance patching comes out two to three months after the regular patching cycle."

"They could incorporate a more secure and internet-centric management system for the platform."

"We would like the ability to add more storage without having to upgrade to Oracle Exadata."

"Even though the solution can handle a lot of data, it's just too expensive currently."

"If we were able to use Oracle Database to create mobile apps, that would be great. I don't know multiple languages, like Java, etc. I need to learn a separate language, right now in order to do this."

"I would rate the scalability a seven out of ten. It has some problems. Databases are huge. This leads to needing more and more RAM and capacity resources, making it hard to scale. Because of this, we use Exadata. That's definitely a point for improvement."

"The main thing would be to make ODA more affordable, to make it a more economical machine. Also, I would like to see virtualization, so you could implement all of your functions on one machine. Finally, improvement in the speed and performance would be good."

More Oracle Database Appliance cons

"The availability could be better."

"We needed to configure additional plugins. While it was relatively easy to do this on-premises, it became more challenging in the cloud."

"They need to enhance integration with other Big Data products... to integrate with Big Data platforms, and to open a bi-directional connection between Greenplum and Big Data."

"VMware RabbitMQ needs to create a new queue system."

"They should improve on the ability to scale your queues in a very simple and elegant way with the same power that they have would be great."

"The support feature could benefit from some improvement in terms of accessibility and responsiveness."

"The installation is difficult and should be made easier."

"VMware RabbitMQ's configuration process could be easier to understand."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The price of the solution should be less expensive. However, they will increase the price more."

"Oracle Database Appliance is a very expensive solution. If you have opted for the on-premises licenses from Oracle, then you have to pay yearly. If you have opted for the cloud subscriptions offered by Oracle, then you can pay either monthly or yearly."

"You must pay for the license."

"In regards to licensing, it is cheaper to maintain for Oracle applications, and it's an all-in-one solution."

"Compared to Oracle Exadata, Oracle Database Appliance is affordable."

"Oracle Database Application's support and maintenance are included in the contract."

"I would rate the pricing a four on a scale of one (high price) to ten (low cost)."

"Oracle’s pricing is ridiculously high."

More Oracle Database Appliance pricing and cost advice

"This is an open source solution."

"The price is pretty good."

"are using the open-source version, which can be used free of cost."

"The pricing for RabbitMQ is reasonable. It is worth the cost."

"It is the best product with best fit for price/performance customer objectives."

"Pricing is good compared to other products. It's fine."

"We are using the open-source version of this solution."

"It’s an open-source solution."
