"The product is good value for money. It is a secure solution.""If the database goes down on one of the servers, the load is automatically shifted to another server. You can troubleshoot the one that is down without affecting uptime.""The most valuable feature is the performance.""Oracle has good technical support.""The main feature is the management and manageability of the tool. We can create a VM on a laptop within a couple of clicks.""NVM Express (NVMe) solid-state drives: This technology brings outstanding I/O performance for midsize databases. We have tested it by doing POCs on customer sites and the results were quite satisfying.""Oracle Database Appliance provides high stability.""Easy management (it saves a lot of installation and patching time)."

Cons
"There are some ways that the handling of unstructured data could be improved.""From my perspective, it would be good if they gave better ITIN/R plugins to use the data for AI modeling, or data science modeling. We can do it now; however, it could be more elegant in terms of interfacing.""It is hard for some of our users to set up rules for cleansing and transforming data, so this is something that could be improved."

"Since we don't have the room to scale up, I rate this solution a six out of ten for scalability.""The product's pricing is too high. We plan to migrate to another database in three to four years.""Oracle Database Appliance is stopping support for the standard edition and only continuing support for the RAC One Node. They did not inform us and we are having problems with our customers. We are not having to change our systems from standard to something else.""In my opinion only one single command should be used for all ODA models, as it’s confusing.""The product is quite complex to set up, initially. It would be ideal if it was simpler.""The setup is a bit complex.""Virtualization needs improvement. It's not easy to back up the virtual machines in the Oracle VM architecture. I would also like to see native support for Veeam Backup Software.""I would be happy to see the Oracle Auto Service Request (ASR) pre-installed in it instead of installing it in a separate machine."

    Overview

    SQL-MapReduce is a framework created by Teradata Aster to allow developers to write powerful and highly expressive SQL-MapReduce functions in languages such as Java, C#, Python, C++, and R and push them into the discovery platform for high performance analytics. Analysts can then invoke SQL-MapReduce functions using standard SQL or R through Aster Database, the first discovery platform that allows applications to be fully embedded within the database engine to enable ultra-fast, deep analysis of massive data sets.

    Oracle Database Appliance is the easiest and most affordable way for small or medium-size organizations to run Oracle databases and applications and is an ideal platform for remote and edge computing environments. Customers reduce Oracle Database deployment times and management workloads using a prebuilt integrated system with management automation. As demonstrated in IDC’s business value study (PDF), Oracle Database Appliance lets customers grow revenue and control costs, delivering up to a 498% return on investment (ROI) over five years.
