We performed a comparison between Microsoft Azure and Oracle Java Cloud Service based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two PaaS Clouds solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The redundancy across different regions is the most valuable. It provides a big value for cloud services, especially for Microsoft."
"The solution is completely scalable."
"Its scalability is valuable. Depending on our requirements, we can add as many virtual machines as we want. We are able to get high availability for services. Services are always available, and they have the maximum uptime. If there is any issue with one of the services, another service is always available. It is pay-as-you-go. You don't have to spend any money upfront. You use the service and pay after one month or a couple of hours of use."
"The most valuable feature is the single sign-on with multifactor authentication."
"Azure's Data Lake services are decent. I like AKS, and API Management is relatively straightforward to use. The security and SIEM options Azure offers are good. All the infrastructure services are easy to use and set up."
"Microsoft Azure is scalable."
"We have found the user interface to be intuitive. Microsoft is a master at UI."
"The advantage of Microsoft Azure is its simplicity. It's easy to launch a project. However, the problem with this kind of solution is the reliability for the customers. You have to be sure to stay with Microsoft."
"Self-provisioning, easy to choose from WebLogic 11g to 12c."
"The ability to manage security and access the server from any location with complete security using SSH is perfect for performing crucial tasks, even while travelling."
"The solution's technical support is good."
"The auto-backup, incremental backup and restoration features can be invaluable for management."
"Cloud has provided less maintenance."
"Backing up and recovery for my domain is very easy and fast. In addition, applying patches and undoing applied patches is effective and easy to do."
"The automated features of auto-purging in 12c helps clear disk space on a routine basis."
"The framework supports auto-configuration. A lot of features are already there. It is reliable and user-friendly to develop code, back-end engineering, or locate specific information such as addresses."
"The product's initial setup process and stability need improvement."
"The main issue is the lack of notifications for updates. Processes for certain operations, like connecting to Git repositories, have changed without sufficient communication. A system to announce or update users about these changes would be very helpful."
"There are a number of services offered by AWS that are not yet available on Azure."
"There is a need to be better on-premise solutions that are more helpful. However, I don't think that is the goal of Microsoft Azure. They want the solution to be secure cloud solutions with cloud applications. This is their main goal at the moment."
"If you compare it with AWS, it is not very friendly to use. I find the UI better to work with on AWS."
"The solution should improve the shared cache. For the shared cache, Microsoft uses RADIUS third-party services. We have a lot of trouble with RADIUS and I suppose that is due to the fact that is not owned completely by Microsoft."
"The pricing needs to be a bit lower. It's an expensive solution right now."
"Any time you use a cloud service, there are increased security risks. If you want more security, you have to have private hosting."
"The product's high price is an area of concern where improvements are required."
"The product is satisfactory but we need more training on managing the machine itself. For example, how do we add more storage, how do we extend a specific portion? I would like to see videos illustrating some of the technical tasks that we often need to do."
"Needs better integration with other Oracle/non-Oracle products."
"There are issues with the application's development, including small glitches and errors."
