Oracle Data Integrator (ODI) Reviews

What is most valuable?
The biggest feature for ODI is the fact that it uses the power of the source or target database to actually perform the ETL processing. So a typical data integration tool might have its own ETL engine, and that would be an additional server, additional costs, something else you have to maintain. ODI actually has the ability to create and generate code that runs... more»What needs improvement?
One thing that is included, and it's going to improve, is the integration with a configuration management tool. Right now, they integrate with Subversion.

My organization develops solutions using all the Oracle EPM products, and ODI has helped us to integrate all the different technologies.What needs improvement?
I think that the product as an overall solution is good. I would only point out some minor bugs or glitches in the development interface (ODI studio), but I do not think that any of them are worthy to be reported here.

Right now, we have two very different GUIs - 11g and 12c. 11g is faster to develop than 12c as it takes more steps to do exactly the same as 11g, but you have a lot of things that you need to do yourself. 12c implemented some things for which... more»

The new release of Oracle Data Integrator (ODI 12c) is now available. Let´s find out what the new features of ODI12c are that this version includes.

The user interface for the data integrator tool is probably the most valuable piece. I'm a relatively newcomer to the ODI. We opted to use ODI instead of Informatica. Relatively, I do not have a lot experience with a lot of VARs, but I've... more»How has it helped my organization?

Perhaps more learning resources related to ODI would be helpful. I'm not sure if that's what restricted the buy-in. Even though the product has been out for 4-5 years, there are still a lot of people who aren't using it or have opted to stay... more»

The most valuable feature is being able to schedule the jobs, especially when they're multi-step.How has it helped my organization?
I don't know why we have different database environments, but we do. The business wants the data to be collected in one place, so they can do reporting and so on.What needs improvement?
