"IntelliFlex is easy to scale - one of its best features is that you can upscale it to the size you want."
"It is very stable. It's 100% uptime. Speed and resilience are one of the greatest features of this product. In almost twenty years we've never had downtime, except for outages for patches and upgrades. We've never had a system failure in twenty years."
"It would be good if Exadata made some new features available regarding data retrieval and speed capacity functions."
"The improvement could be made on the hardware level as the habit in the industry is to go better and faster and larger with every iteration."
"The cost of the solution is high and can be improved."
"A room for improvement in Oracle Exadata is that it's not very easy to use in a microservices environment. It's not easy to split databases, and if this was easier to do in Oracle Exadata, it would make the solution better.

"The solution could always be more stable and more reliable."
