Sentiment score
6.9
AWS Glue delivers cost-effective efficiency, reducing setup costs and time while providing favorable ROI for limited pipeline needs.
Sentiment score
8.3
Oracle Integration Cloud boosts ROI by shortening development cycles and reducing operational and administrative efforts through automation.
I advocate using Glue in such cases.
 

Customer Service

Sentiment score
6.0
Oracle Integration Cloud Service support is generally knowledgeable but experiences vary, with users noting improvement needs in response times.
AWS's documentation is reliable, and careful reference often resolves missed upgrade details.
I find the technical support from Oracle to be good.
 

Scalability Issues

Sentiment score
8.0
AWS Glue offers seamless, scalable data handling with serverless architecture, though some see potential for resource management improvements.
Sentiment score
7.8
Oracle Integration Cloud scales well for medium implementations but faces constraints with large data, impacting performance and licensing cost.
It can easily handle data from one terabyte to 100 terabytes or more, scaling nicely with larger datasets.
For jobs requiring multiple RAM usage, we increase the number of workers accordingly.
 

Stability Issues

Sentiment score
8.0
AWS Glue is highly reliable, seamlessly integrates with AWS, and benefits from serverless architecture, managed support, and easy troubleshooting.
Sentiment score
8.1
Oracle Integration Cloud Service is stable, with infrequent issues, and users rate its stability highly from seven to ten.
AWS Glue is highly stable, and I would rate its stability as nine.
The solution is stable.
 

Room For Improvement

AWS Glue users seek quicker start-up, better UI, Java support, multi-cloud compatibility, cost reduction, and improved documentation and support.
Oracle Integration Cloud Service requires enhanced error analysis, documentation, B2B integration, adapters, and JSON support, while addressing file handling limits.
A more user-friendly and simpler process would help speed up the deployment process.
With AWS, I gather data from multiple sources, clean it up, normalize it, de-duplicate it, and make it presentable.
Migrating jobs from version 3.0 to 4.0 can present compatibility issues.
The mapping is a bit complex, so configuration is not very easy for a new user.
 

Setup Cost

AWS Glue offers flexible pay-as-you-go pricing, affordable yet costly for smaller firms, with extra costs for technical support.
Oracle Integration Cloud Service offers flexible, scalable pricing with competitive models and discounts, appealing for enterprise integration despite higher costs.
The smallest cost for a project is around €700, while the largest can reach up to €7,000 based on the scale of the usage.
AWS charges based on runtime, which can be quite pricey.
Costing depends on resource usage, and cost optimization may involve redesigning jobs for flexibility.
 

Valuable Features

AWS Glue features a user-friendly, scalable interface, ensuring seamless integration, effective ETL tasks, and cost-effective data transformation.
Oracle Integration Cloud Service simplifies enterprise connectivity with intuitive tools, numerous adapters, and serverless setup for seamless integration.
AWS Glue's most valuable features include its transformation capabilities, which provide data quality and shape for processing in ML or AI models.
For ETL, I feel the performance is excellent. If I create jobs in a standard way, the performance is great, and maintenance is also seamless.
I think if I'm working with big data, common languages like Python work quite nicely, which is advantageous.
Additionally, it provides a wide variety of built-in adapters for many cloud providers, such as Azure Blob and AWS S3.

Enables seamless integration and data preparation with robust transformation capabilities
AWS Glue's most valuable features include its transformation capabilities, which provide data quality and shape for processing in ML or AI models. It offers transformation options on canvas or through ETL pipelines, notebooks, and code. Additionally, it supports data preparation, cleaning, and filtering seamlessly. AWS Glue also enhances job scheduling and orchestration capabilities, integrating with AWS Glue Studio for comprehensive data workflow management.
Divya Prakash - PeerSpot reviewer
An integration tool that is highly compatible and easy to maintain
Dealing with the large file sizes has occasionally been a challenge, though we have found workarounds. But dealing with large file sizes could be easy in integrations. I have also come across schema files where headers, footers, and bodies are there, but it's not a valid schema. None of the MSCAs are defined properly. In such cases, we have to think of multiple workarounds, such as splitting or merging. But this is a standard requirement for organizations, so custom solutions should be provided. There are cases when the systems don't expect additional MSCAs, or they expect headers, footers, or tags with different values. But this is not a proper XML. So if we are dealing with XML conversions, mapping, and integrations, we have to do some custom work. These are solutions that Oracle can provide.
