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 have found it beneficial when moving data from one source to another."
"AWS Glue's most valuable features are the data catalog, including crawlers and tables, and Glue Studio, which means you don't have to use custom code."
"I also like that you can add custom libraries like JAR files and use them. So, the ability to use a fast processing engine and embed basic jobs easily are significant advantages."
"The solution's technical support is good. Whenever we raise a use case where we face an issue in our company, we get a response from the solution's technical team."
"The most valuable feature of AWS Glue is scalability."
"The solution integrates well with other AWS products or services."
"It is AWS-integrated. There is end-to-end integration with the other AWS services. It is also user-friendly."
"I like that it's flexible, powerful, and allows you to write your own queries and scripts to get the needed transformations."
"The most valuable feature is stability."
"Broker and UM are the best features."
"What I like best about webMethods Integration Server is its portfolio of connectors."
"It has a good integration server, designer, and a very good API portal."
"Currently, we're using this solution for the integration server which helps us to integrate with the mainframe."
"What I found most valuable in webMethods Integration Server is that it's a strong ESB. It also has strong API modules and portals."
"It frankly fills the gap between IT and business by having approval and policy enforcement on each state and cycle of the asset from the moment it gets created until it is retired."
"Operationally, I consider the solution to be quite good."
"In terms of performance, if they can further optimize the execution time for serverless jobs, it would be a welcome improvement."
"The product has only a few built-in transformations."
"The price of the solution could improve."
"The technical support for this solution could be improved. In future, we would like to connect more services like Athena or Kinesis to help control more loads of data."
"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."
"It is not clear how the partition discovery would have been affected by more data coming in."
"Glue could perform better. It sometimes takes too long to test a Glue job. Google Cloud Platform offers more Python scripts than AWS."
"The mapping area and the use of the data catalog from Glue could be better."
"Other products have been using AI and cloud enhancements, but webMethods Integration Server is still lagging in that key area."
"Upgrades are complex. They typically take about five months from start to finish. There are many packages that plug into webMethods Integration Server, which is the central point for a vast majority of the transactions at my organization. Anytime we are upgrading that, there are complexities within each component that we must understand. That makes any upgrade very cumbersome and complicated. That has been my experience at this company. Because there are many different business units that we are touching, there are so many different components that we are touching. The amount of READMEs that you have to go through takes some time."
"It is quite expensive."
"The Software AG Designer could be more memory-efficient or CPU-efficient so that we can use it with middle-spec hardware."
"The stability of the various modules of the product suite have been a bit of a concern lately. Though their support team is always easy to reach out to, I would prefer it not come to that."
"The deployment should be simplified."
"webMethods Integration Server needs to add more adapters."
"Support is expensive."
