Find out what your peers are saying about Oracle, Quest Software, SolarWinds and others in Database Development and Management."The most valuable feature is its robust infrastructure management tools."
"It has wizards that are very helpful in the installation, and it handles automation as well as virtualization once deployed."
"AI has been deployed within Nutanix. It's very easy to provision the machine within minutes of the application orders. They can hand those over and work along with the AI team to get the data available quickly for business analysis."
"One feature that is very good is the backup and validation process that's built into Era."
"We have an enterprise-level backup product that we're required to use, so we don't rely on Era's version. [But] it could be an awesome first-line backup. It's very elegant the way they designed it. It's quick and it doesn't take up nearly as much storage space as traditional backups. It would definitely help to save on tier-one storage."
"There are a lot of options for working with the database."
"The Time Machine is the most valuable feature for us. Using it means that we don't have to take regular snapshots, yet we are still able to restore the database quickly in the event of a problem."
"The most valuable feature of Nutanix Database Service is the ability to manage multiple vendors."
"After creating a RabbitMQ service, they provide you with a sort of web management dashboard."
"Simple and straightforward admin portals: Made it easy for users and worked out excellently for our requirements"
"The product's reliability is the most valuable feature."
"The solution improved our site reliability."
"Reliability for the messages is key. RabbitMQ ensures your messages are safe. They are not deleted and stuff."
"The solution is stable."
"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."
"I like the high throughput of 20K messages/sec, and that it supports multiple protocols."
"This solution could be improved by integrating with more database providers."
"The initial setup was a little tedious and complex. If they could make the setup slightly more user-friendly, then that would definitely be beneficial. If they could give a clear indication of what ports are required across the business and multiple VLANs, then your prep work can be done beforehand and before you do the actual installation. Because the documentation that was provided was not 100 percent accurate, so we had to do a lot of custom firewall rules after we deployed Nutanix Era."
"The downside of this solution is that it's more expensive than its competitors."
"The solution needs to improve compatibility with other back-ups and products."
"The patching should be a one-button function. Also, it works about 80 percent of the time, but 20 percent of the time it requires manual intervention. And sometimes, until you understand the technical underpinnings of that process, you can't fix it. I thought we would move past that. In the last version, they broke a big chunk of that for me, and that's why I'm waiting for the new release because they promised me it would fix the problem."
"It would be helpful if we could patch Windows operating systems with the solution."
"The solution should provide more integration with more databases."
"It should be able to be consumed by other customers because only the enterprise cloud customers are able to buy this software."
"I saw some limitation with respect to the column store, and removing this would be an improvement."
"The product needs to focus on offering more use case documentation because browsing the internet to find it can be a process filled with struggles."
"The next release should include some of the flexibility and features that Kafka offers."
"Lacks sufficient inbuilt machine-learning functions for complex use cases."
"We needed to configure additional plugins. While it was relatively easy to do this on-premises, it became more challenging in the cloud."
"Their implementation is quite tricky. It's not that easy to implement RabbitMQ as a cluster."
"they need to interact more with customers. They need to explain the features, especially when there are new releases of Greenplum. I know just from information I've found that it has other features, it can be used to for analytics, for integration with Big Data, Hadoop. They need to focus on this part with the customer."
"VMware Tanzu Greenplum needs improvement in the memory area and improved methods for quick access to the disc. So, one of the quick goals of Greenplum must work on enhancing access to the disc by adding hints in the database."
