We performed a comparison between Oracle Database Appliance and VMware Tanzu Data Services based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Data Warehouse solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The performance due to the all-flash of ODA is very nice."
"The most valuable feature of the solution is the ability to combine all the data without the need for additional devices."
"NVM Express (NVMe) solid-state drives: This technology brings outstanding I/O performance for midsize databases. We have tested it by doing POCs on customer sites and the results were quite satisfying."
"Easy management (it saves a lot of installation and patching time)."
"The product is excellent. It is simple and reliable in terms of installation and maintenance."
"The database is solid."
"The solution is pretty automated, which takes out the possibility of human error."
"I give it a nine out of 10 because it gives the customer easy access to a complete database solution within 30 minutes."
"Pivotal Greenplum's shared-nothing architecture."
"Companies can scale the solution, so long as they have server room."
"It's one of the fastest databases in the market. It's easy to use. From a maintenance perspective it's a good product. The segmentation, or architecture of the product is different than other databases such as Oracle. So even in 10 years, the data distribution for such segments will not affect other segments. The query performance of the product, for complex queries, is very good. It has good integration with Hadoop."
"The security is great."
"Scalable (Massive) Parallel Processing (MPP) – The ability to bring to bear large amounts of compute against large data sets with Greenplum and the EMC DCA has proven itself to be very effective."
"The solution improved our site reliability."
"The product has been stable and I have never faced any kind of problems with it."
"We use VMware RabbitMQ to transfer information from one point to another."
"We would like the ability to add more storage without having to upgrade to Oracle Exadata."
"In my opinion only one single command should be used for all ODA models, as it’s confusing."
"Oracle Database Appliance patching comes out two to three months after the regular patching cycle."
"Virtualization features could also be improved. A web-based GUI would be a good start."
"The setup is a bit complex."
"Even though the solution can handle a lot of data, it's just too expensive currently."
"The solution's initial setup is not easy."
"The product's technical support services need improvement."
"If messages pile up until the space of the memory is full, then basically, the cluster goes down, and someone has to log in through the backend and purge all messages."
"Tanzu Greenplum's compression for GPText could be made more efficient."
"Initial setup is a little complex. It took around two weeks to deploy."
"The product has to improve the crisis management, especially in memory issues."
"It will be very useful if we could communicate with other database types from Greenplum (using a database link)."
"Lacks sufficient inbuilt machine-learning functions for complex use cases."
"Implementing a circuit breaker scenario using RabbitMQ is complicated. This complexity arises because manual intervention is required to manage worker details and handle operations based on worker IP addresses."
"Maintenance is time-consuming."
