Cons
"Oracle Database Appliance patching comes out two to three months after the regular patching cycle.""If we were able to use Oracle Database to create mobile apps, that would be great.

It is really not good. I almost have to work on script by script in it. There is always some issue with the user interface.""The product's technical support services need improvement.""Oracle Database Appliance could improve by having better integration."

More Oracle Database Appliance Cons →

"I was struggling with installing a few things. It would be good if was somewhat similar to RedHat. There should be more documentation regarding installation troubleshooting.""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.""When you have complex tasks, RabbitMQ is hard to use.""The initial deployment was a little difficult.""The solution needs improvement on performance.""VMware RabbitMQ needs to create a new queue system.""The debugging capabilities and testing flexibilities need to be improved.""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."
