Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"The subset of SQL that my client is using is completely supported.""I use CockroachDB to test big data samples and to create the best structure for databases. We have four users and required 10 people for deployment and maintenance.""The most valuable features of the solution are its resiliency features and the geo-partitioning capabilities.""CockroachDB is highly reliable.""The tool's most valuable feature is node syncing, which takes only 0.54 milliseconds.""The best feature of CockroachDB is the ability to keep the nodes in different locations.""The availability and the easy to use feature is the most valuable. The documentation is also good.""The product has valuable security features."

"Multitenant has a container database with many pluggable databases.""The best thing about Oracle Multitenant is its ability to consolidate multiple databases into one engine.""The most valuable features are the speed and ease of use.""It's easy to use and works great.""Maintaining databases is a valuable feature for us.""The database becomes pluggable. Inside this container is called a pluggable database and each application contains this pluggable database inside Multitenant. We can then share resources like control files, memory, etc. This lets you stop and start each application without impacting the others. This resource sharing is the most valuable feature""You can scale the solution as needed.""The feature that I like on Multitenant is the ease - it is very easy for my team to run the database."

Cons
"CockroachDB needs to improve store processes.""The product must improve its disaster recovery features.""The closer they can make CockroachDB to being completely compatible with Postgres, the better. It's almost compatible, but not completely. If it was, it would be nice to just be able to use Postgres libraries without any fiddling.""The initial setup and pricing could be improved.""The platform could be more extensible.""We are looking for more features to support distributed high availability and geo-partitioning.""Cockroach does not support all types of protocols. I need to improve it myself to support a CouchDB on my network.""I find the serverless offer a bit confusing."

"That said, Oracle in general doesn't invest in their UI for any of their applications. If we're talking about the dashboard or other user experience, there is room for improvement. I'm talking about on premises. The cloud version has started to improve.""While the product is overall excellent, it is quite expensive.""The user interface for this solution can be made better.""It can be complicated to scale up the solution, but it's scalable.""The solution lacks a GUI for commands.""It would be beneficial to include this solution with Oracle Enterprise, but Oracle charges additional fees for it.""This solution is a bit complicated when collecting from containers - that feature should be a bit better.""Technical support could be faster."

Pricing and Cost Advice
  • "I've used CockroachDB at a small scale on the free accounts because we are only testing."
  • "The pricing is good but can be made cheaper. I would rate the pricing a five out of ten."
  • "The platform is affordable even for the enterprise version. It provides value for investment in terms of performance."

  • More CockroachDB Pricing and Cost Advice →

  • "This solution is a little bit pricey."
  • "For me, I will go with it if I have the budget. Some features are nicer than before, but at the end of the day, you always have a limited budget. I prefer to upgrade and get a specific hardware when possible. At the end, you will have to make a compromise. You will not get everything you would have liked to have."

    Overview

    CockroachDB is a distributed SQL database built on a transactional and strongly-consistent key-value store. It scales horizontally; survives disk, machine, rack, and even datacenter failures with minimal latency disruption and no manual intervention; supports strongly-consistent ACID transactions; and provides a familiar SQL API for structuring, manipulating, and querying data.

    CockroachDB is inspired by Google’s Spanner and F1 technologies, and it’s completely open source.

    Oracle Multitenant - an Oracle Database 12c Enterprise Edition option – introduces a new architecture that enables customers to easily consolidate multiple databases, without changing their applications. This new architecture delivers all the benefits of managing many databases as one, yet retains the isolation and resource prioritization of separate databases. In addition, Oracle Multitenant enables rapid provisioning and upgrades, and fully complements other options including Oracle Real Application Clusters and Active Data Guard. p>
