We performed a comparison between IBM DataPower Gateway and Oracle Service Bus based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Enterprise Service Bus (ESB) solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The solution is very easy to work with."
"I like all of the features in this product and it does what it's supposed to do."
"The product's most valuable features are AAA policies and security features."
"The most valuable features for our business include the ability to monitor and log data transactions and handle multiple request at an enterprise level."
"The solution is straightforward and for large organizations, it functions well."
"It is easy to use, easy to install, and it's resilient for high availability."
"It can look for the various security threats, productions, payload scanning, and perform routing based on the content type."
"The performance is good. It's been very stable."
"What I like most about Oracle Service Bus is that you can use it for many integrations. For example, you can use it for on-premises to on-premises integrations, on-premises to cloud integrations, and cloud to on-premises integrations."
"The stability is consistently high, with only one notable issue encountered."
"With Oracle Service Bus, we can connect with different types of systems. Another feature I like the most is the security feature."
"I am a part of the software developing team and I mainly use this solution for the integrating applications."
"The routing and aggregation are the most valuable features. It's split and join."
"Supports multiple protocol technologies and web services."
"The most valuable feature is the adapters."
"The interface is fine and the solution is quite robust."
"Its support services could be better."
"The product's cost for data appliances or hardware is quite high. It needs improvement."
"They should add features to manage API integrations."
"The two biggest issues of this solution are the complexity and the maintenance procedures."
"The components that they include in the product that are, in fact, a WTX, really need to be removed from the product because they tend to fail."
"We are always looking for more features wherein it could be easily integrated with cloud applications. We are looking for either a cloud solution or a cloud integration option."
"IBM DataPower Gateway is quite big for smaller organizations, looking at different types of clients who are virtually assisted in this, I would say it's not really a good product for smaller firms."
"The user interface or the application development perspective and customization of the tool could be a little better."
"An area for improvement in Oracle Service Bus is the roadmap for its product launch. Currently, it's unclear, so Oracle should develop a roadmap for version 12c, so people can see what's coming out of that version of Oracle Service Bus. Cloud hosting is an additional feature I'd like to see in the next release of Oracle Service Bus."
"There are some loopholes in service and support."
"The pricing of the product could be better. It's a bit high."
"There are times when I select components in composite and they do not appear, and I cannot figure out why."
"We have faced a problem with the heap memory side, but that is stable now."
"The support for GraphQL needs to be improved, and the response time for global support could be faster."
"If they can containerize this, that would be nice. If they can provide docker images and offer support for those containers, that would be great."
"It would be ideal if they could optimize it a bit."
