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."The most valuable feature of the solution is that it is simple to configure."
"The most valuable features are the gateway and the ability to publish to sites."
"The load balancing module, which is equivalent to LTM, is the focus of the PSE. So far, the features of both are identical. I believe NGINX has more features for securing these services, but in terms of load balancing, both are massive solutions."
"The web proxy and the database proxy are excellent."
"When you use NGINX, you have more options and power."
"Application Gateway with application-level firewall tool and load distributor and balancer (also serves for A/B testing)."
"NGINX Plus also has NGINX App Protect. It's a separate module, which is inspired by the F5 apps."
"The product is resilient."
"Conceptually, how it integrates a lot of essential enterprise process components. That's the most valuable."
"This is one of the critical products for my company and we use it extensively. We currently use each and every feature of Oracle SOA."
"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."
"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."
"Valuable features include connectors and BAM."
"We were able to scale out using multiple application and web servers balanced by hardware load balancers and Weblogic clustering."
"In case there is something that doesn't work out of the box, you have the flexibility to customize it."
"The solution needs to be easier to setup and deploy."
"The KPI should be more focused on load balancing and the latency in application calling from the end system."
"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."
"The drawback is that you must obtain a license for everything."
"The scaling should be built into the software rather than configured from an outside source."
"NGINX Plus is moderately priced, but it could give better value for money."
"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."
"The solution must improve its performance."
"The Maven integration in JDeveloper is very basic and might be enhanced to allow the proper use of Maven."
"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."
"The product is not user-friendly."
"Decrease the number of internal resources which the product uses."
"Another area of improvement is performance. Because with multiple solutions connecting to the SOA platform, the performance of the SOA platform can be affected in time. So, that could be one area that could be improved with the SOA."
"I want to see easier integration connections with other cloud-based tools."
"If the disk space expansion can be made more flexible, not requiring a database restart, it would be a major benefit."
"Its function options can be improved."
