We performed a comparison between Dell PowerEdge VRTX and Oracle Exalogic [EOL] based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out what your peers are saying about Dell Technologies, NetApp, Hewlett Packard Enterprise and others in Converged Infrastructure."The system is very intuitive."
"The online UA is very good in comparison to others."
"It is simple to use and it's user-friendly."
"The most valuable feature is the combined management in one box."
"While I cannot say Dell is better than HP or IBM, Dell has a strong presence here in Qatar. We can recommend Dell because of that strategic factor."
"It's a good solution when you don't need a lot of IT."
"We started off with a base because we started our infrastructure with Dell and we always propose or prefer Dell which is easier to manage the warranty than with different vendors."
"It is pretty easy to install."
"Enterprise high-speed interoperability: With IPoIB we can deliver to other environments, either IP-Ethernet-based or IP-InfiniBand-based protocol, both with minimum bandwidth capacity of 10Gbps, 20Gbps, or 40Gbps, redundantly."
"The main benefit of using the solution is for the performance it provides."
"Exalogic offers integration with other engineered systems, which increases the throughput capability and enables processing of bigger and heavier workloads."
"Scalablility: When we need to upgrade from an eighth-rack to a full-rack, the real downtime is less then an hour."
"The automation and provisioning of the environment, as well as the centralized monitoring, have all improved over the years."
"Server consolidation. In a cloud architecture, moving the HA VM from one to other is faster. This is because of the InfiniBand network fabric between the compute nodes and storage nodes (ZFS Storage)."
"Provides high-speed network, strong storage features (ZFS), High Availability out of the box, and is Integrated with a large number of products."
"When we first started with this product, we had some difficulty with it."
"The nodes should be synced with the server so that the solution can be used from the cloud when any or all nodes are down."
"I'd like to be able to increase capacity."
"The licensing can be difficult to understand."
"The storage can be improved."
"We've had general issues related to the solution being difficult."
"Management of storage and networking is web-based, slow, and difficult."
"The scalability could be better."
"Middleware application services, such as statistics, data mining, could be better."
"The solution is prone to disk failures. This needs to improve. Over the past four years we've had to replace about six of them. They've failed almost every three to six months."
"The solution needs to add a network virtualization feature similar to that of VxRail. If they could implement that, it would be great for the product."
