Find out what your peers are saying about Microsoft, Oracle, SAP and others in Relational Databases Tools."A really large and very useful language to process data."
"The initial setup isn't too difficult."
"Scalability, reliability, and performance are what we are getting with this solution. It is highly scalable and has very good performance. It also has in-built monitoring and optimized optimizer. It is quite stable and secure. When it comes to integration, you can integrate it with other tools as well. However, we have been using Oracle Database within our own premises. So, it is kind of difficult for us to basically do a kind of integration with the outside software. We prefer to do things within our own premises."
"The solution is extremely stable."
"Oracle Database is the best based on stability and high performance."
"It's one of the leading databases on the market."
"The tool supports a large volume of transactions compared to other databases we've used. One feature that had a significant impact is Oracle Data Integrator. It allows us to transfer data from the enterprise database to the data warehouse. This is useful for creating different data sets for finance teams and other departments."
"The most valuable feature is that it is a complete product with all of the functionality that you need, and there is no need for any special features."
"The paramount advantage is the exceptional speed."
"It's a distributed relational database, so it does not have a single server, it has multiple servers. Its architecture itself is fast because it has multiple nodes to distribute the workload and process large amounts of data."
"The ability to store data in memory is a standout feature, enhanced by robust failover mechanisms."
"The most valuable feature is the ability to create pipelines, streamline and extract data from the pipelines."
"The product can automatically reinstall and reconfigure in case of a shutdown."
"The product's initial setup phase was pretty straightforward, with no complex processes."
"MemSQL supports the MySQL protocol, and many functions are similar, so the learning curve is very short."
"Oracle could improve the finance system."
"They can simplify and make the deployment more user-friendly. Deploying Oracle solutions requires a lot of technical input. If that can be improved, it would really add value to the business."
"I believe that the simplicity of installation and configuration for logging in to Microsoft and PostgreSQL could be improved."
"The tool's deployment and configuration is difficult. Sometimes, the network DNS settings aren't connected, so we need to check and enable the configuration, which is the difficult part. Maintenance requires a bit of effort. We need to monitor the database performance, check the number of concurrent users on Oracle, and handle any unwanted queries from users. You need at least two people to do it."
"The product's price can be lower since it is a bit of an expensive solution."
"It could be slightly more intuitive, but other than that, we really like it as a solution."
"The adaptability to various APIs is something that needs to be improved."
"The cost of this solution needs to be improved."
"Having the ability to migrate servers using a single command would be extremely beneficial."
"It is not the optimal choice for direct data collection through queries, and it's more suited for aggregation tasks."
"We don't get good discounts in Pakistan."
"There should be more pipelines available because I think that if MemSQL can connect to other services, that would be great."
"The product can be developed further to provide more appropriate output to users as it is one of the areas where there are shortcomings."
"Poor key distribution can significantly impact performance, requiring a backward approach in design rather than adding tables incrementally."
"For new customers, it's very tough to start. Their documentation isn't organized, and there's no online training available. SingleStore is working on it, but that's a major drawback."
