We performed a comparison between Actian Ingres and Oracle Database Appliance based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out what your peers are saying about Snowflake Computing, Oracle, Teradata and others in Data Warehouse."The deployment of our solution across a number of servers using Ingres .NET has meant that we can protect the database server behind a highly secure firewall and deploy the front end solutions on a normal web server."
"The solution is stable. The product is scalable. The technical support is very helpful. The initial setup is straightforward. I consider the product a strong solution for our customers."
"The performance of the system is the solution's most valuable aspect. In combination with the database, it gives perfect results. It's a better system than using other kinds of integrated systems. In general, the ODA control is much simpler to use and offers up the best performance."
"The most valuable features of the solution revolve around its performance, simplicity, and its installation phase."
"We value the appliance architecture with its “everything-in-a-box” highly standardized setup."
"The database is solid."
"Oracle Database Appliance provides high stability."
"If the database goes down on one of the servers, the load is automatically shifted to another server. You can troubleshoot the one that is down without affecting uptime."
"The initial setup was straightforward and quick - I was able to configure everything within an hour."
"The ability to reset the log file without stopping the DBMS would be helpful for us."
"Sometimes, we cannot upgrade or patch it easily. The performance needs to improve."
"Since we don't have the room to scale up, I rate this solution a six out of ten for scalability."
"Even though the solution can handle a lot of data, it's just too expensive currently."
"The product's technical support services need improvement."
"I would rate the scalability a seven out of ten. It has some problems. Databases are huge. This leads to needing more and more RAM and capacity resources, making it hard to scale. Because of this, we use Exadata. That's definitely a point for improvement."
"The main thing would be to make ODA more affordable, to make it a more economical machine. Also, I would like to see virtualization, so you could implement all of your functions on one machine. Finally, improvement in the speed and performance would be good."
"I would like it if the scalability could be increased without having to change versions."
"It would be beneficial to have dedicated RAM included in the Oracle Database Appliance."
