We performed a comparison between AWS Glue and webMethods Integration Server based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Cloud Data Integration solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The most valuable feature of AWS Glue is that it provides a GUI format with a drag-and-drop feature."
"The key role for Glue is that it hosts our metadata before rolling out our actual data. This is the major advantage of using this solution and our clients client have been very satisfied with it."
"The solution helps organizations gain flexibility in defining the structure of the data."
"I also like that you can add custom libraries like JAR files and use them. So, the ability to use a fast processing engine and embed basic jobs easily are significant advantages."
"I like that it's flexible, powerful, and allows you to write your own queries and scripts to get the needed transformations."
"Glue is a NoSQL-based data ETL tool that has some advantages over IIS and ISAs."
"Data catalog and triggers are the two best features for me. AWS Glue has its own data catalog, which makes it great and really easy to use. Triggers are also really good for scheduling the ETL process."
"The most valuable feature for me is the visual interface of AWS Glue."
"Ease of implementation and flexibility to hold the business logic are the most valuable features."
"The tool is very powerful and user-friendly."
"The stability is good."
"The product supports various types of digital documents, including XMLs and EDI."
"The most valuable feature is stability."
"It's a visual tool, so our transformations can be quickly implemented without a lot of fuss. The fact that we have an easy way to expose REST services is also very interesting. It offers the possibility to connect over GMS to synchronize message brokers."
"The messaging part is the most valuable feature."
"The product is very stable."
"In terms of performance, if they can further optimize the execution time for serverless jobs, it would be a welcome improvement."
"The mapping area and the use of the data catalog from Glue could be better."
"I have encountered challenges with multi-region support."
"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."
"AWS Glue is more costly compared to other tools like Airflow."
"In terms of improvement, the performance of AWS Glue could be faster."
"I haven't looked into Glue in terms of seeking out flaws. I've not come across missing features."
"The setup and installation is a bit complex without advanced knowledge or training."
"The learning curve is a little steep at first."
"The Software AG Designer could be more memory-efficient or CPU-efficient so that we can use it with middle-spec hardware."
"t doesn't represent OOP very well, just a method and proprietary interface called IData."
"This product is for larger companies. Compared to TIBCO I think webMethods is better in terms of ease of use and support."
"A while ago, they were hacked, and it took them a very long time to open their website again in order to download any service packs or any features. I don't know what they could do differently. I know that they were vulnerable, and there was some downtime, but because they were down, we were unable to download any potential service packs."
"Rapid application development has to be considered, especially for UI, where user interference is crucial."
"The UI for the admin console is very old. It hasn't been updated for years and is pretty much the same one that we started with. This is something that could be refreshed and made more modern."
"Business monitoring (BAM) needs improvement because the analytics and prediction module very often has performance problems."
