You can build your model with a graphical interface using UML. Apart from some scripting, there is no coding.
An area of improvement is the stopping and starting of services from the Bridge server console. The only way to test services on the Bridge is to have them scheduled so that they run at a specific moment in time. It is, at this time, not possible to trigger this by hand from the console. It is possible to trigger it via the analyze tool, which is used to trace the service. It would be nice to have a simple way to test services without having to schedule them. This is no problem for a developer, but from the functional consultant point of view, the functional consultant needs to test the service and determine if it meets the requirements. It's not a big issue, but it would be nice to have.

It would be great if ODI could link the designer, mapping, and workflows in a more simplified manner, maybe in one combined interface. It would be excellent not to have to go into different areas to perform different activities but rather have a user-defined interface where we can configure a job, run it, monitor it, link packages, and link subprocesses all in one frame instead of having the designer separately, mapping separately, and monitoring and session management separately. With respect to data quality challenges, it would be great to give an option to fix data quality issues based on AI. Integrating AI with ODI that provides recommendations on how to fix those data quality issues after analyzing and profiling business data would be excellent. One of the main disadvantages of the Oracle Data Integrator (ODI) is that it sometimes takes a lot of resources when handling multiple jobs. The scalability and the ability to handle multiple workloads of several parallel ETL jobs could use improvement, and certain parallel threads should be added along with the ability to configure multiple jobs from the same data directory structure.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"E2E is cheaper compared to IBM, Oracle, webMethods, and other middleware solutions."
"What I like about the Bridge is the way that you build your model with a graphical interface using UML."
"We spend much less time developing integrations because all we need to focus on is the business logic."
"It is an ETL tool, which does the extract, transform, and load."
"The scalability is great. It's one of the reasons we chose the solution."
"It allows a single skill set to handle virtually all of the data transport and transformation needs of a company."
"The solution's initial setup is straightforward, especially compared to Mule, which our team has worked with before and found to be a bit more complex in terms of setup."
"The product has an ELT approach."
"ODI's best features are customization, integration with other versioning tools, and the ability to define new knowledge modules."
"Oracle Data Integrator (ODI)'s ELT architecture has helped optimize my data movement and transformation significantly."
 

Cons

"Maybe they need to support more connectivity protocols."
"An area of improvement is the stopping and starting of services from the Bridge server console."
"The GUI is Java based, and is less than friendly."
"While integrating with a file, I faced an issue where I wanted output files, and I had used the text field limited quotations, but at the end of the file, there was a line breakage for the last column."
"The initial setup is rather complex, and needs an experienced architect to make the correct decisions."
"Technical service is a 6, and Oracle needs to improve this."
"ODI could improve by being more user-friendly. Informatica, which is also an ETL tool, similar to ODI, but Informatica is very user-friendly, easy to use, and simple to integrate, compared to ODI. ODI has many features, put them all together, and sometimes we get confused about which ones to use, which ones not to use."
"An area for improvement in Oracle Data Integrator (ODI) is real-time integration."
"I would like to see in the next version/release the ability to scale a package workflow or data flow process during the execution at run time."
"I would like more different tools of transformation. In the current version I have only worked with lookup and filter, and sometimes it is not good enough for what I use it for."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"The license can be costly, but in certain complex cases, ODI proves to be the optimal solution."
"The Oracle Data Integrator (ODI) pricing isn't expensive, but it's not cheap, so it's in the middle. I'd rate the pricing as three out of five."
"ODI comes included when buying the cloud version of the Oracle database license."
"Per user, it is $900 USD per year, though they will give some discount. However, even a 60% to 70% of discount for each won't help us much. On top of that, there is the perpetual license you must pay at the outset."
"The solution is very expensive."
"I have yet to determine the exact figure for Oracle Data Integrator (ODI) pricing, but it has lower pricing than Informatica."
"There is a standard license to use the solution but there are other costs in addition, such as hardware and operating system."
"The solution is expensive because of the model they use. The cost is for the license and for support."
