We performed a comparison between AWS Database Migration Service, CloverETL, and Jitterbit Harmony based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out what your peers are saying about Amazon Web Services (AWS), MuleSoft, Matillion and others in Cloud Data Integration."As the solution is on the cloud, we don't have to worry about the maintenance of software."
"We particularly like that this solution has the facility to integrate with all ETL tools."
"The fact that it's well-integrated into multiple targets that are good for different use cases is pretty good."
"Even if it does break down, it will automatically recover itself and resumes from where it stopped."
"Scalable and stable solution for migrating databases to AWS, with valuable features such as parallel full load and continuous data replication."
"The initial setup is simple. Not that much complex."
"For our simple requirement of migration, DMS is just a typical AWS RDS with an IPSec tunnel to Oracle. The most valuable features for us are the networking capabilities like VPCs and VPNs."
"The most valuable feature of AWS Database Migration Service is it catches all the history changes, such as inset, observe, and delete. It tracks everything."
"No dependence on native language and ease of use."
"Connectivity to various data sources: The ability to extract data from different data sources gives greater flexibility."
"Server features for scheduler: It is very easy to schedule jobs and monitor them. The interface is easy to use."
"Key features include wealth of pre-defined components; all components are customizable; descriptive logging, especially for error messages."
"Jitterbit provides the ability to quickly map data between files and databases."
"It runs like an appliance and has tremendous throughput."
"We only use small parts of the solution, however, the parts that we use are quite adequate."
"It is very easy to build integrations and processes to pull and push data."
"The fluid user interface (probably the most user friendly interface, when compared to its competitors)."
"Jitterbit handles the most lines of data in a .csv and loads the quickest of any data loader I have tried."
"It is a scalable solution."
"Integrity, ease of use, user-friendly user interface, and errorless logs are the most valuable features."
"The live duplication has a delay of two minutes, which can be an issue."
"The names of the services need improvement since AWS doesn't indicate what the function of the product is presently. You need to read a lot to find the service that you want in the product."
"The server has limits on how many can connect to the database."
"The way that the task settings work, specifically for logging, is really poor."
"More endpoints need to be supported by AWS Database Migration Service. There's also a need for more control and transparency on the product, including better technical support."
"One area that AWS DMS can improve on is its conversion of data types. For example, in Oracle, you have a data type called RAW, but in PostgreSQL there is no such thing. Thus, AWS DMS doesn't know what type I want to use when migrating from Oracle to PostgreSQL, and when performing the migration, AWS DMS changed the RAW data type to the byte data type, which isn't what I wanted."
"I think that Amazon needs to improve the migration scenarios after analytics"
"If they had some sort of functionality where, at a specific point in time, if I want to start a new job, it should automatically pick up from where it has been left rather than having people worry about the exact job number and the timing."
"Resource management: We typically run out of heap space, and even the allocation of high heap space does not seem to be enough."
"Needs: easier automated failure recovery; more, and more intuitive auto-generated/filled-in code for components; easier/more automated sync between CloverETL Designer and CloverETL Server."
"Its documentation could be improved."
"In the past few months, there have been some server downtimes during work hours that have affected some critical scheduled integrations."
"There were some bugs in the product. For example if you run a delete query and test, it deletes the actual data."
"Its API management capabilities need improvement."
"You need to have some development skills or hire a Jitterbit engineer to make changes."
"Looping through complex data structures can be difficult."
"I would like the ability to offer a dedicated cloud version for security."
"I know with Salesforce updating the UI like they did, it slowed it down a lot."
"The initial setup can be a little bit difficult."
