Pros

More Oracle SOA Cloud Service Pros →

"The stability of the solution is the most valuable feature.""Valuable features include web service development and cloud connectivity.""The ability to stand up a highly available SOA Suite, which has full DR capabilities, in a remote center and synchronize the databases using Data Guard.""In Oracle SOA Suite some applications are not able to use REST, but it can support both SOAP and REST. You're able to integrate quite a lot of systems, which may not be able to in other solutions. You can also use XML and JSON. It is a standardizing type of tool. It doesn't matter whether I'm using JSON or XML, it can convert them.""Middleware jobs developing for EC, ERP, and shipping systems become easier.""The most valuable feature of this solution is the option to design, and the development can happen at the same time.""We were able to scale out using multiple application and web servers balanced by hardware load balancers and Weblogic clustering.""The most valuable feature of Oracle SOA Suite is all the platform's capabilities."

It could be lower.""Its function options can be improved.""The product is not user-friendly.""The solutions can improve the communication or translations between formats, such as JSON and XML.

Pricing and Cost Advice
  • "​It is an interesting solution, but only if you get a good price for it. Usually there are better options in the market with better prices.​"
  • More Oracle SOA Cloud Service Pricing and Cost Advice →

  • "Oracle pricing is expensive. Support is based on your license. AWS is much better than Oracle in this regard."
  • "It is necessary to evaluate the requirement regarding the platform usage and what the main operation area of the platform will be."
  • "This product is WebLogic based, hence it can be both resource hungry as well as expensive from a licensing point of view."

  • "The pricing is not very high as compared to its competitors."
  • "The product is moderately priced."
  • "Oracle SOA Suite is an expensive solution."

    Overview

    SOA Cloud Service provides an integration platform as a service (iPaaS) so that you can quickly provision your new platform, start developing and deploying your APIs and integration projects and provide real-time analytics as you transition to Digital Business.

    Oracle SOA Suite is a comprehensive, standards-based software suite to build, deploy and manage integration following the concepts of service-oriented architecture (SOA). The components of the suite benefit from consistent tooling, a single deployment and management model, end-to-end security and unified metadata management. Oracle SOA Suite helps businesses lower costs by allowing maximum re-use of existing IT investments and assets, regardless of the environment (OS, application server, etc.) they run in, or the technology they were built upon. Its easy-to-use, re-use focused, unified application development tooling and end-to-end lifecycle management support further reduces development and maintenance cost and complexity.
