Featured Reviews

Henry Ngeno - PeerSpot reviewer
Operations Manager at a security firm with 10,001+ employees
Centralized visibility has transformed how my teams manage risk, compliance, and cloud resources
CloudQuery can be improved in several areas, particularly regarding the technical expertise required. It is not a platform suitable for layman staff or those lacking proficiency; it demands knowledge in data integration, cloud infrastructure, and SQL. Organizations without the necessary technical capabilities may struggle to utilize the platform effectively. Moreover, this complexity can increase the IT budget due to subscription costs, hosting, and additional maintenance expenses that can accumulate. Another area requiring improvement is the reliability of output, which currently depends heavily on data quality and access permissions. If the data in my cloud infrastructure lacks quality, the information curated will also be inaccurate, creating gaps and undetected issues. Therefore, the platform's reliability and accuracy hinge on maintaining high-quality data stored in the cloud.
Neelima Golla - PeerSpot reviewer

A hybrid integration platform that applies the functionality of closed-loop AI automation
I recommend using it because, in today's context, the cloud plays a significant role. Within the same user interface, you can develop applications and manage multiple applications, making it a more user-friendly option. Moreover, you can explore various other technologies while deploying on the cloud, broadening your knowledge of cloud technologies. In my case, the transition led to my learning of Kubernetes, enabling multi-scaling and expanding my technical skills. It was a valuable experience, and I had the opportunity to learn many new things during the migration process. I can easily rate it an eight or nine out of ten.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"CloudQuery has positively impacted my organization because instead of navigating through multiple cloud consoles, I can run an SQL query and get, for example, all my S3 buckets that are public, private, or that I need to do something with."
"CloudQuery connects well with the role of cloud infrastructure management, providing rapid and impactful changes without delays in execution, ensuring everything related to database and data management functions effectively."
"The AI-generated SQL works well for my team as it gets things right most of the time."
"It is a stable solution."
"Cloud Pak for Integration is definitely scalable. That is the most important criteria."
"In general, the solution works very, very well."
"The most preferable aspect would be the elimination of the command, which was a significant improvement. In the past, it was a challenge, but now we can proceed smoothly with the implementation of our policies and everything is managed through JCP. It's still among the positive aspects, and it's a valuable feature."
"Redirection is a key feature. It helps in managing multiple microservices by centralizing control and access."
"The most valuable aspect of the Cloud Pak, in general, is the flexibility that you have to use the product."
 

Cons

"CloudQuery really acts as an asset inventory tool, which is great, but I find that somewhat limiting."
"CloudQuery can be improved in several areas, particularly regarding the technical expertise required."
"What needs to be improved is the restriction that they have on the product."
"Setting up Cloud Pak for Integration is relatively complex. It's not as easy because it has not yet been fully integrated. You still have some products that are still not containerized, so you still have to run them on a dedicated VM."
"The initial setup is not easy."
"Enterprise bots are needed to balance products like Kafka and Confluent."
"The pricing can be improved."
"Its queuing and messaging features need improvement."
