In general, there are multiple platforms with the Oracle platform. For example, in Google Cloud, one of the services is a database. Oracle can also have multiple services, corresponding database service, that is an Oracle database service. But, to the best of my knowledge, that framework is not available in Oracle. Google is more Java-based, so they have a lot of Java frameworks that can be used.

We will recommend this to all of our clients because it is a feature that Oracle is promoting, and it is working well for us. 

We recommend that you use this product.

I strongly advise them to use this if they are using Oracle-related solutions, and they can definitely try it because, in addition to Oracle, it has other connectivities, such as I mentioned Concur, Coupa, and SAP. They have connectors for that as well, they should try it out.

I would rate Oracle Integration Cloud Service an eight out of ten.

The remaining two are due to pending items. It's a bit lightweight. When it comes to heavy volume data handling, they should improve something, but the rest is fine.

We are Oracle's golden partners. We implement Oracle products.

Even if you have no prior experience with Oracle product integrations, it is easy to learn and use because it is mostly, drag and drop. If you are not familiar with coding or development or Java or JavaScript, you can easily learn Oracle Integration Cloud. This is mostly a configuration-based development, and you only need to use your mind and logic to implement it better in a performance-tuned way, but it's very simple. I would recommend that you use it. 

It makes integration so quick and simple.

I would rate Oracle Integration Cloud Service an eight out of ten. There is always room for improvement, but eight is definitely a good rating.

We are partners with Oracle.

If you already use the Oracle ERP system, you should opt for OIC. It is a stable and low-cost solution. It has user-friendly features and impressive integration capabilities. Also, it provides regular updates.

I rate it a ten out of ten.

We do have trouble with a lack of knowledge about Oracle Integration Cloud Service. Sometimes, customers want us to achieve certain things with integrations that are not so simple. Those use cases are tricky and OIC is not the right solution for all use cases. 

My advice to those looking to implement Oracle Integration Cloud Service is this: you have to have experience with hand-on integration and developing integrations before you can work in a live scenario. 

On a scale of one to 10, with one being the worst and 10 being the best, I would rate Oracle Integration Cloud Service with an eight for overall performance.

We are an implementor. I'm also an Oracle Prime customer. I'm currently using that Oracle for many years and I have a complete ecosystem in Oracle.

Earlier, due to instability, at that time I would never suggest that anyone go with that OICS, integration cloud service. However, now that Oracle has improved a lot in the OIC part, I would recommend it. However, it depends on that ecosystem. If the surrounding technology is related to Oracle, it's a great integration tool. I would always prefer that OICS. However, some SAP or some other tools might not be as available and we would have to build some custom solution. Of course, rather than the customized adapter, we would prefer to go with a standardized one. It really just depends on the environment.

I'd rate the solution nine out of ten.

I'm an Oracle partner. 

We deal with the most up-to-date version of the product.

One has to understand their requirements before deploying the solution. You need to analyze it and see whether it is available for them to leverage its capabilities. Most of the interfaces are already in place. You just need to provision it and configure it. That's it.

This is a relatively new product. It may still need maturing, however, it is already quite good.

I'd rate it eight out of ten.

My advice to others is if you are looking for integrations with other Oracle solutions, then this is a great choice. Otherwise, you can explore other middleware platforms.

In general, the solution is functioning well. We already have Informatica Cloud established and we've been using it for a few years as our integration tool. We bought PaaS specificlaly for this project. Our challenge now is to test the comparison between Informative Cloud and PaaS. Informatica is a set price whereas PaaS has the meter running every time the database is extended in the virtual machine. On the other hand PaaS has the front client, the workflow, Ariba, everything. We're still evaluating.

I would rate this solution a seven out of 10.

We are the implementers of the product.

We are using the latest version of the product.

If a company is integrating this product with file-based integration, then it is very good. It provides good monitoring and tracking as well. B2B capabilities earlier were not there, however, now they are coming up with the B2B capabilities where EDI-related interfaces can be handled well. That said, bulk processing is still a challenge

I'd rate the product an eight out of ten.

It's worth evaluating all options including on-prem ones as well as other products in the market, like MuleSoft and Microsoft Azure, comparing features and cost. You might choose a product based on cost and then find there will be limitations in terms of the features it provides.

I rate this solution seven out of 10.

This product only supports the deployment on Oracle's own cloud, it does not support AWS or Azure. This may deter other vendors who do not wish to deploy on Oracle Cloud.

Any organization that uses Oracle applications will find this solution very convenient to move into the proper cloud setup. If they require a cloud-to-cloud integration within a short timeframe, this would be an easy solution to use without issue. 

Overall, I would rate this solution an eight out of 10.

We mostly use the private cloud deployment model.

I would recommend that new users not just dump all the data streams into the tool. Rather they should start small and then scale it depending on the use cases.

I would rate the solution seven out of ten. It's one of the very good counter price integration tools available on the cloud right now.

For those who have Oracle on-premise, Oracle Cloud is the best solution because when we tried to migrate to Azure and Google cloud, we could not meet their expectations.

The native Oracle application can easily migrate to Oracle Cloud. If you're trying to migrate to AWS, Google, or Azure, we need a lot of effort and there are is a challenge to redesign everything. If it is a popular application, it is a bit tough to redesign applications to be compatible with Azure, Google, or AWS.  

I rate Oracle Integration Cloud Service a seven out of ten.

When comparing AWS to the Oracle Cloud, I don't see an equivalent platform. There is no ESB as such currently on AWS. AWS has a lot of other services like a queuing service, national servers, SQL Servers, etc. If you want to integrate with Oracle and SAS applications, then this is a pretty good solution. On the flip side, OIC has a limited number of resources, including support — there are just one or two courses to go by. I wasn't happy with the instructions that we received and the number of materials and resources; it made it hard for us to learn how to properly use it. 

All things considered, it's a fairly good platform. Overall, on a scale from one to ten, I would give Oracle Integration Cloud Service a rating of seven. If they improved the amount of support and resources available, I would give them a higher rating.

We mostly use the public cloud deployment model, but it depends on the requirements of the client.

I'd advise others that they need to be really clear on what integrations they need and the complexity of the integrations their client requires. As long as users identify the source target systems and the integration pattern that they would like to put in place, they will be fine. This needs to be the first step, so users may need a longer implementation phase. It would help provide a quicker outcome for them if they put the work in upfront. 

Those implementing the solution need to ensure they have the right partner with the right skillsets. 

I'd rate the solution eight out of ten.

There's no preparation required because it's a SaaS application. They just need to subscribe. The trial was part of the Insight program. They can just go in and request a trial version. They can look into the product for themselves.

In terms of preparation, I would say you need to know your requirements, what you want to integrate, and whether those are limiting factors in ICS or not. There are prerequisites you should go through or you can work with their sales team, who basically can educate you better so you can decide whether ICS is the right product.

Oracle has a wide variety of products for integration itself. Any company that wants to get into it should know what the right product is for them to start with.

Especially regarding Oracle Cloud, go with it. The shift which we need to do towards the cloud is, at one stage, if you're not adapting to it, I think you are late for the bus. That's my opinion.

When I select a vendor to work with, the very first thing I look at is the cost. The cost is what is driving the entire industry. I know everyone is increasingly becoming very sensitive to the cost. The second thing is the service, the customer service. As a vendor, I bring up some critical issues. I do look for them to be a partner and see how fast they solve my issue; that is very important, because any disruption to the customer is not good. That actually has some implications on their business. We need to zero down and make it more simplistic.

It works for basic stuff but if you're looking for a turnkey solution, Oracle Integration Cloud would not work. So it all depends on how heavily customized you are within the application that you already have. And there is no customization inside. You need an integration partner. That is well worth it. Your own customization has a license, Oracle Integration Cloud. I would rate Oracle Integration Cloud at a six on a scale out of ten.

Oracle ICS simplifies the definition of system integrations, focuses on core business features like the data mapping, and hides technical complexity away from the integration developer.

The user interface is very intuitive, responsive and easy to use, so long training periods are not needed. Furthermore, the platform has a very clear and transparent roadmap and is getting more mature with every release.

Make use of the Oracle Cloud marketplace and just do needed adjustments that are necessary for your business to rapidly increase your development speed.

This is a good product and I recommend it. My advice to anybody who is implementing Oracle Integration Cloud Service is to attend oracle University for training or at least some seminars before getting started. It is best to have some level of preparation. There is a lot of planning and discussion that takes place prior to implementation.

Overall, we are pretty happy with the product.

I would rate this solution an eight out of ten.
