"The solution helps organizations gain flexibility in defining the structure of the data."
"AWS Glue is a good solution for developers, they have the ability to write code in different languages and other software."
"What I like best about AWS Glue is its real-time data backup feature. Last week, there was a production push, and what used to take almost ten days to send out around fifty-six thousand emails now takes only two hours."
"The most valuable feature of AWS Glue is scalability."
"The most valuable feature of AWS Glue is that it provides a GUI format with a drag-and-drop feature."
"Talend Studio has the ability to use it to ensure data quality."
"I can connect with different databases such as Oracle Database or SQL Server. It allows you to extract the data from one database to another. I can structure the data by filtering and mapping the fields. It is very user-friendly. You need to know the basics of SQL development or SQL queries, and you can use this tool."
"There are many architectures: hybrid, cloud, and on-prem."
"The rapidity of integration with data may be one of the valuable features."
"The most valuable feature for me when it comes to this solution is that it's easy to use."
"A very user friendly solution."
"It is user-friendly and the interface is good."
"The product's initial setup phase was easy."
"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."
"I haven't looked into Glue in terms of seeking out flaws. I've not come across missing features."
"On occasion, the solution's dashboard reports that a project failed due to runtime but it actually succeeded."
"I would like to see a more robust interface on the no-code side. This would be nice to be able to split cells."
"The solution’s stability could be improved."
"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."
"Overall, I consider the technical support to be fine, although the response time could be faster in certain cases."
"The crucial problem with AWS Glue is that it only works with AWS. It is not an agnostic tool like Pentaho. In PowerCenter, we can install the forms from Google and other vendors, but in the case of AWS Glue, we can only use AWS."
"The server-side should be completely revamped."
"The physical appearance of the product is an area of concern where improvements are required."
"In terms of features, it has all the features that I need. However, it consumes a lot of resources. It is using a lot of RAM, and they need to fix the issue related to resource consumption. It currently requires more than 24 gigabytes of RAM, which is a big amount of RAM."
"Talent consumes a lot of resources on my PC."
"The security features could be improved."
"There used to be many Youtube channels that offered Talend training, but now there don't seem to be any. The solution should offer more online training resources."
"Technical support and customer service need to be improved."
"The price for Talend Data Integration should be less expensive."
