Find out in this report how the two Application Infrastructure solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The most valuable features are the gateway and the ability to publish to sites."
"Supports IMAP, POP and SMTP protocols for the reverse proxy."
"When I worked in a security research center, we tested NGINX to support DoS and DDoS attacks, and its results were great."
"With NGINX, I appreciate its ability to route traffic geographically."
"The best solution, by far, for web traffic control for things in production and just around the house."
"Nginx is simple to configure, very stable in a highly utilized environment and very modular, allowing DevOps to create it's own modules for interactive use with Nginx."
"Valuable features include authentication, caching, reverse proxy routing, and load balancing."
"Zero Downtime has always been a strength in recommending infrastructure web services. NGINX allows me to execute such infrastructure with less complications and the ability to switch from server to server easily."
"The Oracle SOA Suite has many useful features, and different organizations may place different emphases on the importance of each feature. Certain features are particularly important to the organization, such as the ability to access databases and transform messages, as well as the use of proxy services to secure web services with usernames and passwords. These features can be critical for enabling effective integration and data exchange between systems and applications."
"The most valuable feature of the facility, as the partner link, is to try to use third-party services and logic in your own vehicle to orchestrate the information."
"What I like best about Oracle SOA Suite is Oracle support. I also like the tool features, especially the integration feature."
"Valuable features include connectors and BAM."
"The solution's XSLT or XSL Transformation feature was very useful."
"The product provides transparency in finances."
"The most valuable features for us are the APIs, which we commonly use, as well as the scheduling capabilities and file transfers."

"Lack of a feature to print data on the terminal for verification of network traffic during debugging and testing."
"It would be good if NGINX provided a graphical user interface."
"One area that could be better is the human task feature. It could be improved to provide more functionality and customization options because it has limited options available."
"An area for improvement in Oracle SOA Suite is the cost. It could be lower."
"The technical support is good, we have premier support which costs extra."
"The deployment could be made easier by including add-ons like Hudson and Maven."
"The interface is too complicated. Making modifications still requires too much technical knowledge."
