Find out what your peers are saying about Amazon Web Services (AWS), MuleSoft, Matillion and others in Cloud Data Integration."The solution is stable and reliable."
"It's scalable."
"If your infrastructure is already on Amazon, it simply makes the most sense to use a tool officially provided by them as an additional service, rather than having to rely on a third-party solution."
"The initial setup is very straightforward."
"The fact that it's well-integrated into multiple targets that are good for different use cases is pretty good."
"The initial setup is simple. Not that much complex."
"The most valuable features of the AWS Database Migration Service are the ease of migration, beneficial storage system, security, and simple instance creation. Additionally, the cloud that is provided is more complete than other solutions."
"It's pretty useful when we need to migrate something big from a different type of database that AWS Data Migration Services supports."
"It's very user-friendly and designed to be easy to use for the end user."
"AtomSphere Integration will suit those looking for small automation and simple integrations."
"Very effective with its drag-and-drop feature."
"The product's integration features are quite rich and low code. It is easy to use."
"I have found the solution to be scalable."
"Boomi AtomSphere Integration is stable."
"The platform is user-friendly."
"The best features are that it is a cloud-based and a multi-tenant tool."
"The initial setup is straightforward. It doesn't take too much time or effort to implement the solution."
"Many of the features of Oracle GoldenGate are valuable. We use Oracle databases and this tool is from Oracle, making it have superior compatibility."
"Oracle GoldenGate features work fine, which is what I like about it. I also like that it's scalable, easy to set up, and has good technical support."
"I am impressed with the tool's possibility of integrating different systems in a unified place."
"The product is reliable for data integrity."
"The product's initial setup phase was very simple."
"It moves the data as you set it up, and it works. I am also very impressed with its stability and scalability. It is not super feature-rich, but the new releases have more functionality. It recently had more native integrations with Oracle Database. If you are using it against an Oracle database, it has a lot more functionality."
"Ease of installation, maintenance and powerful outputs and supporting Big Data and Cloud environment as well as OGGCS (Oracle Golden Gate Cloud Service)."
"Whatever solution worked today can not be reused in the next migration."
"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."
"It would be helpful if the bandwidth could be independent of the network or if we could have a dedicated bandwidth for this product."
"The way that the task settings work, specifically for logging, is really poor."
"What needs improvement in AWS Database Migration Service is that it lacks a log file validation feature. If the solution could provide more details about a particular transaction, that would be helpful. The stability of AWS Database Migration Service for online CDC records also needs to be improved."
"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."
"AWS Database Migration Service can become complex when testing. Other solutions, such as Microsoft Azure makes it easy to do. There are more steps to complete tasks in AWS Database Migration Service than in Microsoft Azure."
"Database Migration Service could be more integrated. I think that it makes sense to add integration to these functions. For example, AWS Glue has a feature called Orchestrator to create data flows, and that's more straightforward."
"It is a costly platform. Its pricing could be better."
"Have to create some of our own pre-built connectors."
"They need to introduce more configurable functions to remove scripting or coding. Scripting should be minimized. It should have exhaustive functions. Currently, it lacks in this aspect."
"The product's UI could be more convenient."
"Documentation could be improved."
"Boomi AtomSphere Integration should scale up on the migration area."
"In my experience, I haven't encountered any major issues with the tool. However, there could be a learning curve for new users, especially depending on which tool you're using. For example, I've used MuleSoft in the past, which is more code-oriented and requires knowledge of Java. Transitioning to Boomi AtomSphere Integration took me a couple of months because of differences in terminology."
"Boomi AtomSphere Integration is not yet exposed to the world as a good product owing to certain shortcomings in the area of marketing where improvements are required."
"A clean and user-friendly graphical interface based on common design principles would be beneficial."
"Technical support for Oracle products needs to be more efficient (at least locally in Egypt)."
"The solution, in general, should be easier to use, with less need to perform workarounds within the system."
"IBM CDC has one central control while Oracle GoldenGate has two controls. In IBM CDC we can do all things in frontend. The solution needs to incorporate a feature where we can connect it to a standby database."
"The problem with GoldenGate is it is very complex to use. You need heavyweight skills to use it."
"The solution costs a lot."
"GoldenGate is expensive. It's costly because this solution is unique in our market. The GoldenGate Cloud Service is cheaper than the on-premise solution."
"In the future, I would appreciate a more user-friendly monitoring interface for easier management and troubleshooting."
