We performed a comparison between Nutanix Database Service and VMware Tanzu Data Services based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Database Development and Management solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The patching is the most valuable feature. We spent a lot of time and effort on the patching of our SQL instances after hours. With Nutanix Era, you can schedule and automate them during your normal operational hours (during the day). You schedule all the patching, then everything happens automatically with minor tickets from the engineer. So, our patching, which took four hours, went down to an hour for the engineer. This is much better for us from a return on investment perspective."
"It saves operation time and day-to-day tasks."
"We use the solution to save costs and simplify operations."
"Overall, the solution is very good. It's easy to use and simple to handle many actions, such as VM cloning, testing, and prediction."
"This is a very useful solution for database management."
"What I like about this solution is that it's more reliable compared to other solutions."
"The most valuable feature of Nutanix Database Service is the ability to manage multiple vendors."
"One feature that is very good is the backup and validation process that's built into Era."
"The solution's best feature is its exceptional speed, delivering efficient utilization of resources."
"It's one of the fastest databases in the market. It's easy to use. From a maintenance perspective it's a good product. The segmentation, or architecture of the product is different than other databases such as Oracle. So even in 10 years, the data distribution for such segments will not affect other segments. The query performance of the product, for complex queries, is very good. It has good integration with Hadoop."
"The solution can scale."
"We have been able to set up a messaging system that facilitates data integration between the software modules that we sell."
"The most valuable feature is asynchronous calls, which are easy to configure."
"Helps us to achieve large-scale analytics."
"The most valuable feature is that it's really customizable."
"With VMware Tanzu Greenplum, one can make a huge database table and analyze the queries by adding in the SQL command. Some hint or command for the query goes over the multi-parallel execution."
"Their support is helpful, but maybe they need more technical staff. Their response was slow once, but that was the only time it happened, so I'm not sure."
"Patch management is an issue as it regularly causes stability problems."
"There is room for improvement in the pricing structure."
"The initial setup was a little tedious and complex. If they could make the setup slightly more user-friendly, then that would definitely be beneficial. If they could give a clear indication of what ports are required across the business and multiple VLANs, then your prep work can be done beforehand and before you do the actual installation. Because the documentation that was provided was not 100 percent accurate, so we had to do a lot of custom firewall rules after we deployed Nutanix Era."
"This solution could be improved by integrating with more database providers."
"If there were data integration services included with the platform then it would be interesting, and it would help us a lot."
"The solution should provide more integration with more databases."
"It would be helpful if we could patch Windows operating systems with the solution."
"VMware RabbitMQ needs to create a new queue system."
"The availability could be better."
"Some integration with other platforms like design tools, and ETL development tools, that will enable some advanced functionality, like fully down processing, etc."
"The fact that a single queue can't be distributed across multiple instances/nodes is a major disadvantage."
"Initial setup is a little complex. It took around two weeks to deploy."
"Implementing a circuit breaker scenario using RabbitMQ is complicated. This complexity arises because manual intervention is required to manage worker details and handle operations based on worker IP addresses."
"If you have a user consuming a huge load of resources, it takes down the entire system."
"There are some security concerns that have been raised with this product."
