"Data storage is the most valuable feature of Oracle Database Cloud Service.""Security is the most valuable feature provided by the product.""The most valuable feature of Oracle Database Cloud Service is its cloud capabilities.""Oracle DCS's most valuable features are its high availability and scalability.""What I like best about Oracle Database Cloud Service is its nice performance. My company doesn't have any problems with the service. The technical support for it is also good. My company is satisfied with Oracle Database Cloud Service. I also like the availability of the service. It's a trustworthy service. I didn't experience any downtime from it. My company also has additional features included in the contract, such as WAP, which makes operations easier. My team can implement all the architecture with the features and services that Oracle Database Cloud Service offers. Technically, this is a very, very, good product or database, whether on-premises or on the cloud.""I am impressed with the product's partitioning and advanced data card.""The product’s most valuable feature is affordable pricing compared to other providers.""It is a very stable program."

Cons
"We are looking for more features to support distributed high availability and geo-partitioning.""I find the serverless offer a bit confusing.""The platform could be more extensible.""The product must improve its disaster recovery features.""The initial setup and pricing could be improved.""CockroachDB needs to improve store processes.""Cockroach does not support all types of protocols. I need to improve it myself to support a CouchDB on my network.""The closer they can make CockroachDB to being completely compatible with Postgres, the better. It's almost compatible, but not completely. If it was, it would be nice to just be able to use Postgres libraries without any fiddling."

More CockroachDB Cons →

"Oracle Database Cloud Service could improve by adding some cross-region replication features.""We encountered connection failures for some of our sites.""The pricing must be improved.""The initial setup is a bit complex for the beginner, so you need a little technical experience to install it.""It would be nice to have a data dictionary reporting feature in the solution.""Oracle Database Cloud Service is a good engine and at the moment, there isn't any new feature I can think of that I'd like added to the service. The only problem I see in Oracle Database Cloud Service is it's more commercial, so it has a relation to how it deals with customers. I don't feel secure in a deal with Oracle because that team changes the conditions each year, and there's no representative from the team that talks to my company about new needs. Oracle needs to improve its relationship with customers and partners in general.""Oracle should work on the solution's compatibility issues with the operating system.""We're actually going through licensing issues and are looking to perhaps changing to another solution, something that is perhaps open-source."
