Oracle MySQL Cloud Service Reviews

We specialize in providing solutions for Oracle's complexity, making it easier for businesses to navigate and manage their data effectively. We utilize a KPI monitoring solution to collect and transfer data into Oracle for data processing workflow.

The access to a suite of management and administration tools that simplify tasks such as database provisioning, configuration, and monitoring.

It can be quite challenging to work with, and it's not known for its user-friendliness. It requires a significant amount of expertise and effort to manage, especially when dealing with substantial volumes of data.

I have been working with it for two years.

The system is generally stable; however, during month-end processes that involve calculations and data aggregation, we have experienced occasional delays.

The current solution lacks scalability and there's room for improvement in that aspect. Right now, I'm developing products for end-users, with around three to four hundred employees utilizing screens, seeking to enhance their user experience and efficiency in generating reports and outputs.

The customer support provided is highly commendable. However, it's a commonly held perception that this support can be costly in Korea. While the core solution itself is not exorbitant, the support services are associated with a significant maintenance fee, often ranging from twenty to thirty percent.

The installation process can be quite challenging. To streamline this, we don't install Oracle directly. Instead, we opt for a method involving copying code, which is time-consuming.

This process entails creating spaces, and it consumes a significant amount of time. However, once we have an Oracle database established, we can conveniently duplicate it to create an identical setup. This allows us to create another space, acquire the necessary licenses, and overall make the process much more straightforward. The deployment process typically spans several days, and the number of required personnel depends on the project's size and complexity. When it comes to data migration, involving both before and after images, the entire process usually extends to six or seven months.

The price of the solution is not very expensive. However, the issue lies in the ongoing maintenance charges, which can be quite high and burdensome.

These days in Korea, discussions often revolve around cloud services, with a focus on technologies like Hadoop and MongoDB, also there's a new Oracle service, that is related to handling large datasets. The challenge is that not many people are aware of this Oracle service, and this lack of knowledge is seen as a limitation compared to technologies like Hadoop. Hadoop can extend across multiple servers, which allows for clustering and scaling. Oracle, on the other hand, traditionally operates on a single server without easy expansion to multiple servers. However, Oracle introduced a solution to address this limitation a couple of years ago, but it seems that it hasn't gained widespread recognition yet.

Overall, I would rate it ten out of ten.

We collect data from end-users and store the data using the Oracle MySQL Cloud Service.

The most valuable feature is the data aggregation function.

The technical support is in need of improvement.

It is difficult to do any coding with this solution.

We have been using this solution for the past couple of years.

The Oracle MySQL Cloud Service is stable.

This solution is scalable enough. We haven't seen any problems with it.

We have about 60 users within my project.

The technical support from Oracle needs to be improved.

We performed a cluster-based setup that needs some configuration, so I would say that the initial setup is complex.

We compared Oracle to other competing databases and found advantages with this solution. Beyond that, we haven't tried working with any similar tools.

My advice to anybody who is researching this solution is that it is a better option than other solutions. 

I would rate this solution a six out of ten.

Having multiple reliable databases has improved our business greatly because having a robust database is so integral to the company in general.

The support is not that great. They're not really supporting directly anymore and relying on experts to figure out technical issues. Oracle does offer a website where you can open a service request, etc., however, general technical support could be improved.

The solution is, without a doubt, very stable. 

The scalability of the database is absolutely guaranteed by the new features. We have 20-30,000 users on the solution right now.

Technical support is lacking in general.

As a global company, we have all types of business needs, and all types of cloud and on-premises solutions. We chose Oracle MySQL because it was the best option, and still is.

The initial setup was very easy.

Implementation was handled by our internal team.

The solution is very expensive. Of course, you pay for what you get. So there is a reason why those products are very expensive compared with the other products. You are paying for some very good features.

We use a hybrid version of the solution.

I would recommend Oracle MySQL.

I would rate the solution seven out of ten. I would rate it higher if support was better.

I use MySQL for the database, to store data on my web application

The solution overall is very powerful.

Sometimes MySQL does upgrades on the server. When we are still using the old server and when they integrate the upgrade, they don't carry along some of the old syntaxes. The versions don't sync.

The stability of the solution is very good. I wouldn't have used it for the past seven years if I was not satisfied.

The solution is very scalable.

We've never used the solution's enterprise support. We can get support from the MySQL communities, so we've never needed to contact technical support.

Previously, we used Node.js. It's a document-oriented database. Complexity-wise, there was a chance it could fail, which is why we ultimately switched.

The initial setup is very straightforward.

The simplicity of the solution is very good. It's a straightforward solution and makes for a very good cloud option.

I would rate the solution nine out of ten.
