We performed a comparison between AWS Database Migration Service and SAP Data Services based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Cloud Data Integration solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."AWS Database Migration Service is good for smaller workloads and provides compatibility."
"The tools are very user-friendly."
"We particularly like that this solution has the facility to integrate with all ETL tools."
"The most valuable feature of the solution is the one I use for report generation. The security risk is very low."
"The fact that it's well-integrated into multiple targets that are good for different use cases is pretty good."
"Support is helpful."
"I am very impressed by the scalability of AWS Database Migration Service."
"The process is now simplified because there won't be maintenance. Usually we can take a snapshot of the number I need. We can automate the backup snapshots and we can restore it very quickly. We get many benefits from the application."
"The solution offers very good integration capabilities."
"The most valuable feature is the ETL functionality."
"It is a powerful product with a broad range of features."
"The feature of SAP Data Services has enhanced our company's business processes because we are able to run around 800 jobs in areas like data extraction and transaction objects."
"It's easy to understand and deploy. It's easy to create new applications, and depending on the complexity of the application, it is easy to deploy the new requirements."
"The basic functionality is quite good as is the basic logic and data information."
"The product's most valuable features are data validation and rules."
"The initial setup is not complex."
"The live duplication has a delay of two minutes, which can be an issue."
"There is no connectivity to the source database or the target database."
"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."
"The cost is a concern. We use DMS because of its simplicity, but the price could definitely be more competitive."
"As a solution, the better thing is if more platforms come with direct compatibility, like connecting to different data sources. The basic problem I faced the most was while transferring and reading data from Excel. So, one time, I found that all the components I had declared in my scripts were able to take it. And after some patching happens, it is not able to support that. Again, we need to update the version of Excel. So, it's not like a plug-in type place where you have done the solution and are confident that it will work. So, this is an area of improvement."
"The initial setup can be difficult for beginners in AWS Database Migration Service. You will need the training to complete it."
"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."
"The solution’s scalability and performance could be improved."
"The pricing of the solution should be improved."
"The description of error messages isn't extensive, although they point to the problem. With other solutions, like Talend, I was able to use the debugger to get directly to the problem, but with SAP Data Services the debugger is not working. I'm not sure if it's a problem with the version specifically, but I'm using it in an enterprise environment and I can't do an upgrade."
"Integration with other products could be improved."
"The execution engines and processing engines have shortcomings and need improvements."
"It will work fine only in an SAP environment. It could be said that the integration with other vendors could be better."
"The solution should offer more machine learning and automation."
"Some of the jobs that are built within Data Services require local files, and during initial deployment, those local files cannot be transported between machines simply because of security issues."
"We would like the different tools offered within this solution to be available as standalone entities, rather than having to purchase the entire package when we only require a few features."
