We performed a comparison between NGINX Plus and Oracle SOA Suite based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Application Infrastructure solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."NGINX Plus' most valuable feature is the ingress controller."
"The flexibility of its modules allow it to be scalable."
"The web proxy and the database proxy are excellent."
"With NGINX, I appreciate its ability to route traffic geographically."
"When you use NGINX, you have more options and power."
"Nginx is extremely efficient in terms of the connection rate to the CPU cycles ratio, and in terms of the bandwidth to CPU cycles."
"The product is lightweight and fast."
"The most valuable feature of the solution is that it is simple to configure."
"The Oracle SOA Suite has many useful features, and different organizations may place different emphases on the importance of each feature. Certain features are particularly important to the organization, such as the ability to access databases and transform messages, as well as the use of proxy services to secure web services with usernames and passwords. These features can be critical for enabling effective integration and data exchange between systems and applications."
"In Oracle SOA Suite some applications are not able to use REST, but it can support both SOAP and REST. You're able to integrate quite a lot of systems, which may not be able to in other solutions. You can also use XML and JSON. It is a standardizing type of tool. It doesn't matter whether I'm using JSON or XML, it can convert them."
"The new product has come out with SOA Cloud Service and Integration Analytics as well, which gives more options for clients to pick their point of requirements."
"The stability of the solution is the most valuable feature."
"I would rate my experience with the initial setup an eight out of ten, where one is difficult, and ten is easy."
"The most valuable feature of this solution is the option to design, and the development can happen at the same time."
"Provides connectivity between discrete systems and has availability."
"The ability to stand up a highly available SOA Suite, which has full DR capabilities, in a remote center and synchronize the databases using Data Guard."
"Make modules easier to enable or disable. The beauty and ugly side of the NGINX modules is you have to know how to compile the module. For beginners or non-very technical aspirant(s) going for NGINX, they have to learn how to compile the modules."
"Only improvement needed that I would point to is scalability. With it, I mean clusterized organisation on a low level. At the moment, the best alternative is RHEL HA."
"Improvement needed in NGINX Plus could focus on optimizing memory usage for users."
"Our most challenging part was to run an older PHP website reverse-proxied through NGINX. That was not fun."
"The KPI should be more focused on load balancing and the latency in application calling from the end system."
"The user interface could be improved."
"The drawback is that you must obtain a license for everything."
"It would be good if NGINX provided a graphical user interface."
"The installation and adjustment process seems too complex."
"The technical support is good, we have premier support which costs extra."
"Decrease the number of internal resources which the product uses."
"The Maven integration in JDeveloper is very basic and might be enhanced to allow the proper use of Maven."
"Various parts of SOA, BPEL, and so on, each have their own consoles which need to be accessed individually with different logins. It would be better from an admin perspective if all the consoles were accessible via a single login."
"SOA, OSB, SOA Cloud Service."
"An important area that can be improved is the product's data monitoring. When we use the solution for interfacing or end-to-end data monitoring, we want to know exactly where the data is going and exactly where it is failing, or where there is an issue."
"One area that could be better is the human task feature. It could be improved to provide more functionality and customization options because it has limited options available."
