We performed a comparison between AWS Glue and TIBCO Spotfire based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Cloud Data Integration solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."We no longer had to worry much about infrastructure management because AWS Glue is serverless, and Amazon takes care of the underlying infrastructure."
"The solution is highly user-friendly, and its features are easy to use. The new addition of AWS Glue Data Catalog is also very beneficial, making the tool even more helpful for its users."
"The most valuable feature of AWS Glue is scalability."
"Glue is a NoSQL-based data ETL tool that has some advantages over IIS and ISAs."
"The solution is stable and reliable."
"Its user interface is quite good. You just need to choose some options to create a job in AWS Glue. The code-generation feature is also useful. If you don't want to customize it and simply want to read a file and store the data in the database, it can generate the code for you."
"One of the best features of the solution is its ability to easily integrate with other AWS services."
"I appreciate AWS Glue for its cost-effectiveness."
"Live Query data on demand, R and Python integration, and the ability to write HTML and JavaScript text areas are all valuable features."
"I appreciate Spotfire's range of visualization options, advanced analytics features, and seamless integration with other TIBCO products."
"Spotfire is excellent for scientific applications, especially because of its integration with RNG."
"The ability to connect to many different data sources is one of the key features. The other would then be the different ways in which that data can be visualized."
"We particularly like the data angling feature of this solution. This gives us the ability to work on data transformations, join files, and carry out other data preparation tasks all in a single tool."
"It allows users to quickly analyze data from a variety of sources and visualize it with powerful, interactive graphs, and charts."
"TIBCO Spotfire is easy to use. We initiated Spotfire as POC, with support from a tech team based in South Africa. While they assisted with the setup, we conducted the POC ourselves."
"The solution is an affordable one."
"I have encountered challenges with multi-region support."
"Glue could perform better. It sometimes takes too long to test a Glue job. Google Cloud Platform offers more Python scripts than AWS."
"I haven't looked into Glue in terms of seeking out flaws. I've not come across missing features."
"If there's a cluster-related configuration, we have to make worker notes, which is quite a headache when processing a large amount of data."
"One area that could be improved is the ETL view. The drag-and-drop interface is not as user-friendly as some other ETL tools."
"There should be more connectors for different databases."
"The price of the solution could improve."
"In terms of improvement, the performance of AWS Glue could be faster."
"The number of charts available out of the box in Spotfire can be enhanced."
"Personalising Spotfire, as a whole, is painful and is something that could be made easier."
"We encountered difficulties connecting the special data sets, as the post data set did not contain any shared columns, making it difficult to establish a connection between the data sets."
"The solution might be generic."
"I would like more easy-to-implement analytical algorithms. At the moment they include things like forecasts and regressions. They need to add a lot more of these types of things to the product because not everyone is a data scientist."
"We would like to see some improvement in the default properties of the solution, so that there is less need for us to spend our time coding."
"The initial setup is complicated and needs experience and knowledge."
"When it comes to data manipulation, there are features which are good, but one of the features which has really been missing in Spotfire is an offline ability for data manipulation."
