Enhancing database management with operational efficiency but needs better compatibility

Era should be compatible with various environments, such as VMware and Red Hat, to be hypervisor agnostic. Due to increasing adoption among enterprise clients, integration with Kubernetes platforms is also needed. Furthermore, the product can benefit from improving its understanding of architectural setup and communicating its limitations to users and partners.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"EDB Postgres Enterprise Manager helps us to build custom files."

"It is also a single platform, all in one place, and that is a reason we went for this solution. Earlier, we had multiple platforms, the database and the OS, but this is a single platform that helps us with what we are doing."

"What I appreciate the most about Nutanix Database Service is that it's simple; it's all in one bundle, and everything is pre-configured so that you can deploy your database and protect it."

"With the cloning technology in Nutanix Database Service, the time reduces to less than an hour, which is very useful."

"The provisioning and other features of Nutanix Database Service have improved my company by making it easy to deploy the databases, and DBAs can just deploy what they need as needed instead of having to manually create VMs for them individually and install the databases and setting everything up with DBAs provisioning databases themselves."

"I appreciate being able to provision a database quickly from our side. We provision it and hand it off. It makes work much easier. Previously, it would take a week or two to do the same in a traditional way, whereas now, it gets completed within about an hour."

"Nutanix Era effectively reduces operational overheads by streamlining the application team's implementation of multiple environments."

"With Oracle, it took around one hour to refresh the database and now, with Nutanix, it takes a quarter of that time."

"Management and provision are the most important features of Nutanix Database Service."

Cons

"The tool needs improvement in pricing and support."

"We have a regular license program because it's really expensive."

"Their support is helpful, but maybe they need more technical staff. Their response was slow once, but that was the only time it happened, so I'm not sure."

"The only improvement I would suggest is making the template creation and updating process more straightforward and automated."

"The solution should provide more integration with more databases."

"One of the things that we've discovered specific to SQL is that the deployment options that are available do not match our company standards, so we have asked the Nutanix team if that is something that is customizable or if we need to adjust our deployment strategy."

"There is room for improvement in the pricing structure."

"Nutanix Database Service could be improved by making it just a little bit less complex regarding the interface. That said, it's definitely in the right direction."

"We faced some performance issues with Nutanix."

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available

"On a scale from one to ten, where one is cheap and ten is expensive, I rate the solution's pricing a five out of ten."

"It is amazing. The pricing compared to the time saved is nothing. It's worth the cost."

"Pricing wasn't a surprise. It was what we were expecting it to be."

"The price of the solution is expensive."

"There are no costs in addition to the standard licensing fees."

"This solution is reasonably priced."

"I wasn't involved much with the pricing and setup costs and licenses. The pricing was as expected."

"Era is quite expensive. The thing that will be a showstopper for them in the long run is if you look at it from a technical perspective on what it provides and weigh it up against consolidation of multiple other software suites."
