Offers security and good performance

Price-wise, the tool is expensive, and I feel it is an area where improvements are needed. Oracle Database as a Service is not as popular as other tools because we use AWS and GCP. Oracle is okay in terms of performance for banking businesses and some big companies. As I use the tool in Heineken, I know Oracle is an okay security solution. We use and deploy some applications and features from Oracle that are better than what others offer. The data in the tool is actually stored in the production part, so it is always kept a secret. I don't think that AI has been integrated into the tool. The AI used by Oracle is not as strong as that used by AWS. I recommend the tool to others, especially banking, finance, and insurance companies where the security needs to be better. There is maintenance for the tool required, but I don't know which company does it for our organization. I rate the tool a ten out of ten.

Performs much better than traditional databases, integrates well and lot of learning resources available

It improved the performance. For example, data structures like hashmaps in Redis make it a very fast database – much faster than traditional SQL databases. It can perform at significantly higher speeds. Latencies are very low. Our primary focus wasn't on saving money but on improving performance for that specific feature. So, performance has been the key improvement. Every calculation happened in real time. It improved the performance 10X. In our company, we have limited resources, so we can't manage the database ourselves. We use services from Azure for that. So, Redis integrates well with those services. We use Azure Cache for Redis.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"As a database administrator, it has a lot of features to help you manage the database and the backup."

"The most valuable feature is the integration into other Oracle applications."

"The scalability and high availability are the most valuable features of Oracle DaaS."

"I like the solution’s performance and real application concepts."

"The most valuable feature of Oracle Database as a Service is the object types. The object types are not available in other databases, such as SQL and Postgres. Additionally, the security is very good."

"Improves client satisfaction by decreasing their problems."

"The most valuable feature of Oracle Database as a Service is its use as a provisioning database."

"It is a good solution and has a large community."

More Oracle Database as a Service pros

"The most valuable features of Redis are its ease of use and speed. It does not have access to the disc and it is fast."

"I use Redis mostly to cache repeated data that is required."

"Redis is a simple service that does what it promises."

"The ability to fetch and save data quickly is valuable."

"Redis is good for distributed caching management."

"The in-memory data makes it fast."

"I find Redis valuable primarily for its caching capabilities, particularly in handling cache requests effectively. Its simplicity in managing key-value pairs for caching is one of its strengths, making it a preferred choice over more complex databases like MongoDB for specific use cases. However, I haven't explored Redis extensively for managing complex data structures beyond caching, as MongoDB might be more suitable for such scenarios."

"It is particularly efficient for cloud-based storage and operations."

More Redis pros

Cons

"I would like the tool to improve the setup because it is complex."

"The solution's pricing could be less expensive."

"Improvement in Oracle DBaaS could focus on enhancing performance monitoring and reporting tools."

"The solution’s initial setup is very complex."

"There is room for improvement in PL/SQL. It is not user-friendly and it is hard to understand."

"The support provides help based on the same size fits all kinds of approaches, making it an area where improvements are needed."

"The solution’s pricing could be improved."

"It would be better if we could have a little bit of automation or a chance for autoscaling with Oracle Database as a Service."

More Oracle Database as a Service cons

"The tool should improve by increasing its size limits and handling dynamic data better. We use the client ID or associate it with a key for static content. The solution will not be easy for a beginner. Unless you understand SQL data, it will be difficult to understand and use Redis. It also needs to be user-friendly."

"Redis should have an option to operate without Docker on a local PC."

"If we use a lot of data, it will eventually cost us a lot."

"It's actually quite expensive."

"In future releases, I would like Redis to provide its users with an option like schema validation. Currently, the solution lacks to offer such functionality."

"There is a lack of documentation on the scalability of the solution."

"The only thing is the lack of a GUI application. There was a time when we needed to resolve an issue in production. If we had a GUI, it would have been easier."

"Sometimes, we use Redis as a cluster, and the clusters can sometimes suffer some issues and bring some downtime to your application."

More Redis cons

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The solution is quite expensive but worth the money."

"It is notably expensive when compared to the features offered by other alternatives."

"This is an expensive solution."

"Pricing for Oracle Database as a Service is expensive."

"Oracle Database as a Service has a yearly licensing fee, which is expensive."

"There should be a standard way to license the database in a virtual environment (e.g. VMware) and there should be a low-end version (like Standard Edition One) again."

"The solution's price is reasonable but depends upon the negotiation."

"The price of Oracle Database as a Service is reasonable."

More Oracle Database as a Service pricing and cost advice

"Redis is not an overpriced solution."

"Redis is an open-source solution. There are not any hidden fees."
