Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"We have found it beneficial when moving data from one source to another.""We no longer had to worry much about infrastructure management because AWS Glue is serverless, and Amazon takes care of the underlying infrastructure.""I like that it's flexible, powerful, and allows you to write your own queries and scripts to get the needed transformations.""Transformations are valuable because you can modify or override complex data logic from an open source or Spark to solve issues.""Its user interface is quite good. You just need to choose some options to create a job in AWS Glue. The code-generation feature is also useful. If you don't want to customize it and simply want to read a file and store the data in the database, it can generate the code for you.""One of the best features of the solution is its ability to easily integrate with other AWS services.""The most valuable feature of AWS Glue is that it provides a GUI format with a drag-and-drop feature.""AWS Glue is a stable and easy-to-use solution."

More AWS Glue Pros →

"The most important part would be the use of connectors. The significant number of cloud connectors available for active integration is its value.""In general, there were a lot of great utilities for working with files.""OIC's accuracy is quite good.""The Oracle integration tool is the most comfortable tool for using those Oracle products.""The solution is scalable.""The initial setup of Oracle Integration Cloud Service was easy.""People are able to scale up, learn it quickly, and start delivering.""The most valuable features of this solution are the SFTP adapters, file adapters, and risk adapters, that we use in everyday projects."

More Oracle Integration Cloud Service Pros →

Cons
"It is not clear how the partition discovery would have been affected by more data coming in.""It fails to handle massive databases acquired from various sources.""The product is expensive for data streaming. This area needs improvement.""The price of the solution could improve.""I would like to see stable libraries at the moment they are not there.""We face performance issues when using AWS Glue for data transformation and integration.""If there's a cluster-related configuration, we have to make worker notes, which is quite a headache when processing a large amount of data.""I have encountered challenges with multi-region support."

More AWS Glue Cons →

"Our client was quite concerned about the cost, which is something that could be reduced.""If an inbound file is larger than one GB, it cannot be transformed within Oracle.""It has lengthy documentation, making the process of building applications more time-consuming.""Oracle Integration Cloud Service can improve the downloading and uploading of files. I've submitted this issue to the Oracle Idea Labs. The issue is from the front end of Oracle Integration Cloud, we cannot download or upload a file directly or drag and drop it.""Oracle Integration Cloud Service can improve file handling. Currently, our real-time file polling limitation is 10 MB, if that size can be increased it would be helpful. For example, increasing the size from 10 MB to 1 GB.""The solution's customer service could be better.""The error retrying mechanism could be improved. If an error occurs, it can be retried automatically, it would be helpful.""Now the platform is not built in a way that you can define."

Pricing and Cost Advice
  • "The pricing is a bit higher than other solutions like Athena and EC2. If the pricing becomes more scaled or flexible, it will be good because you have to pay 44 cents just for one DPU for an hour. If you increase DPUs to 5 or 10, the pricing gets multiplied. There are also some time limits like 0 to 10 minutes or 10 to 20 minutes. If the pricing is according to the minutes, it would be better because you have to limit your job to 10 minutes or 20 minutes."
  • "It is not expensive. AWS Glue works on the serverless architecture. We get charged for the time the server is up. For our use case, we have to use it once in a day, and it is not expensive for us."
  • "Its price is good. We pay as we go or based on the usage, which is a good thing for us because it is simple to forecast for the tool. It is good in terms of the financial planning of the company, and it is a good way to estimate the cost. It is also simple for our clients. In my opinion, it is one of the best tools in the market for ETL processes because of the fact that you pay as you use, which separates it from other big tools such as PowerCenter, Pentaho Data Integration, and Talend."
  • "Technical support is a paid service, and which subscription you have is dependent on that. You must pay one of them, and it ranges from $15,000 to $25,000 per year."
  • "This solution is affordable and there is an option to pay for the solution based on your usage."
  • "AWS Glue is quite costly, especially for small organizations."
  • "AWS Glue uses a pay-as-you-go approach which is helpful. The price of the overall solution is low and is a great advantage."
  • "The overall cost of AWS Glue could be better. It cost approximately $1,000 a month. There is paid support available from AWS Glue."

    • More AWS Glue Pricing and Cost Advice →

  • "It specifies how much data you use and how much storage you require, among other things."
  • "The price of Oracle Integration Cloud Service is good. It is reasonable and is priced well for the market segment. The model they use is on a per-package unit and we have a two-year subscription."
  • "The solution is less expensive than other products."
  • "The price is fair."
  • "The price of Oracle Integration Cloud Service is reasonable to start with, but when you scale it becomes expensive."
  • "The solution is cost-effective."
  • "Its pricing is relatively lower than other vendors."
  • "The price is cheaper than all other cloud integration providers."

    Overview

    AWS Glue is a serverless cloud data integration tool that facilitates the discovery, preparation, movement, and integration of data from multiple sources for machine learning (ML), analytics, and application development. The solution includes additional productivity and data ops tooling for running jobs, implementing business workflows, and authoring.

    AWS Glue allows users to connect to more than 70 diverse data sources and manage data in a centralized data catalog. The solution facilitates visual creation, running, and monitoring of extract, transform, and load (ETL) pipelines to load data into users' data lakes. This Amazon product seamlessly integrates with other native applications of the brand and allows users to search and query cataloged data using Amazon EMR, Amazon Athena, and Amazon Redshift Spectrum.

    The solution also utilizes application programming interface (API) operations to transform users' data, create runtime logs, store job logic, and create notifications for monitoring job runs. The console of AWS Glue connects all of these services into a managed application, facilitating the monitoring and operational processes. The solution also performs provisioning and management of the resources required to run users' workloads in order to minimize manual work time for organizations.

    AWS Glue Features

    AWS Glue groups its features into four categories - discover, prepare, integrate, and transform. Within those groups are the following features:

    • Automatic schema discovery: AWS Glue crawlers connect to the organization's source or target data source through a prioritized list of classifiers to determine the schema for users' data. This feature creates metadata in companies' AWS Glue Data Catalog.

    • Schemas for data stream management: The AWS Glue Schema Registry enables users to validate and control the evolution of streaming data through registered Apache Avro schemas for no additional charge.

    • Automatic scaling based on workload: This feature dynamically scales resources up and down based on workload. The feature controls job resources, removing them depending on how much the workload can be split up.

    • FindMatches: This feature is for machine learning-based data deduplication and cleansing, and works by finding records that are imperfect matches of each other to remove useless data copies.

    • Edit, debug, and test ETL code: This feature helps users who have chosen to interactively develop their ETL code by providing development endpoints for editing, debugging, and testing the code it generates for them.

    • AWS Glue DataBrew: An interactive, point-and-click visual interface for specialists to clean and normalize data without the need to write any code.

    • AWS Glue Interactive Sessions: This feature simplifies the development of data integration jobs by enabling data engineers to interactively prepare and explore data.

    • AWS Glue Studio Job Notebooks: This AWS Glue feature provides serverless notebooks with minimal setup, allowing developers to start working in a timely manner.

    • Complex ETL pipeline building: This feature allows the product to be invoked on a schedule, on demand, or based on an event, allowing users to start multiple jobs in parallel or specify dependencies to build complex ETL pipelines.

    • AWS Glue Studio: This AWS Glue feature allows users to visually transform data through a drag-and-drop interface. The product automatically generates the code for ETL processes for users' data.

    AWS Glue Benefits

    AWS Glue offers a wide range of benefits for its users. These benefits include:

    • Users of other AWS products can easily onboard with AWS Glue, as it is integrated across a wide range of the company's services.

    • The solution is serverless, which allows for a lower total cost of ownership.

    • AWS Glue offers more power for users, as it automates much of the effort in building, maintaining, and running ETL jobs.

    • The product allows customers to easily discover and search across all their AWS datasets through AWS Glue Data Catalog.

    • AWS Glue does not require additional payment for managing and enforcing schemas for data streams.

    • The solution facilitates the authority of scalable ETL jobs for beginners and non-coding experts through a drag-and-drop interface.

    Reviews from Real Users

    Oracle Integration Cloud Service is a solution that stands out when compared to many of its competitors. Some of its major advantages are that it has good adapters, is user friendly, and produces a solid ROI.

    Rishabh S., Business and Technology Delivery Associate Manager at Accenture, says, “It has good performance, easy integration, is user-friendly, and also has helpful technical support. The dashboard provided by Oracle Integration Cloud for monitoring and error handling is very intuitive. You do not need a third-party dashboard or logging framework when you initiate the integration. There are a lot of adapters, which is what I like the most.”

    “The most valuable features of this solution are the SFTP adapters, file adapters, and risk adapters, that we use in everyday projects,” says PeerSpot user Arun N., Technical Manager at a financial services firm.

    Kanhaiya C., Solution Architect at Tata Consultancy, explains, "Oracle Integration Cloud Service is a really good product and the ROI is very good with it. It lowers development time. A development cycle that may have taken a year without Oracle Integration Cloud Service can drop down to three or four months with it."
