Featured Reviews

Data warehousing has transformed reporting performance and now delivers near real-time insights

consultant at tcs

OpenText Analytics Database (Vertica) is a very powerful analytic database, but like any platform, there are areas where it can improve to make daily work even smoother. Better cloud-native experience is one area for improvement. OpenText Analytics Database (Vertica) was originally designed as an on-premises analytic database and later moved to cloud. Improvement opportunities include more seamless cloud-native features such as auto-scaling, serverless options, and easier cluster management. Competitors such as Snowflake and BigQuery provide more fully managed experiences. Easier UI is another area for improvement. Most administration is currently done by SQL and command line tools. An improvement opportunity would be a more modern web UI for monitoring, workload management, and troubleshooting. Faster ecosystem and community growth is needed. In short, OpenText Analytics Database (Vertica) could improve in areas such as cloud-native capability, modern UI for administration, stronger real-time streaming integration, and growing its ecosystem and community. These enhancements would make it easier to manage and adopt compared to newer cloud-first analytic platforms. From a day-to-day operational perspective, there are a few areas where OpenText Analytics Database (Vertica) could improve to make our work smoother. Smarter automatic projection management is needed with more intelligence, auto projection creation, automatic optimization, and reduced manual testing with better workload management. Right now, monitoring queries often requires system tables and manual analysis. Troubleshooting slow queries takes time. A modern real-time dashboard showing query bottlenecks and resource users would enable quick detection. The impact could be faster issue resolution and less time spent debugging performance. Storage native interaction with modern data tools is also important. In short, from a day-to-day perspective, improvements in automatic projection optimization, better workload monitoring dashboard, easier schema evolution, and stronger modern tool integration would significantly reduce manual tuning effort and improve developer productivity. While OpenText Analytics Database (Vertica) is very powerful, these enhancements would make it more efficient for the analytics team.

Has consistently delivered high performance and aligned security while evolving with AI-driven improvements

SR AVP–Presales Cloud & Platform Management Services at Path Infotech ltd

When discussing Oracle Exadata, the main thing is the specialized database appliance, the flash cache, and the engineered machine on the database for the database itself. Overall, all the features are useful and meaningful for any database like Oracle to run the Oracle database. Regarding Smart Scan technology, it is for better performance. If a customer cannot tune their applications, this will help them to run the database and run the application without any tuning itself. Oracle Exadata's advanced compression techniques have affected my customer's data storage efficiency positively, with the feature being great, but as of now, our customer is not using that. I find its security measures align with my customer's organization, as security is aligned as per the customer's requirement. It has helped optimize performance and cost.

Oracle Exadata allows enterprises to run any Oracle Database workload with the highest performance, scale, availability, and security on fully compatible cloud and on-premises infrastructure. Exadata uses a scale-out design with unique optimizations that include persistent memory, SQL query offload, and built-in resource management to optimize performance for OLTP, analytics, machine learning, and mixed workloads running in consolidated environments. By running hundreds or thousands of optimized Autonomous Database and Exadata Database instances on Exadata Cloud or Cloud@Customer infrastructure, customers are able to minimize their infrastructure, reduce management, improve developer productivity, and lower total costs by up to 40%, as described in Wikibon’s analysis (PDF).

The main benefit of Exadata is its speed. It hosts operating systems, CPU memory, and hard drives. It runs all types of databases, including online transaction systems, processors, and data warehouses, while remedying the poor performances of older databases.

Oracle Exadata features a simple and fast database storage system that protects and backs up your critical data. It accelerates data warehouse performance for faster access to business information and data. It is the ideal database solution for companies looking to build up their infrastructure from scratch.

Oracle Exadata Database Machine Key Benefits

Rapid, reliable, and scalable deployment: Exadata is the most cost-efficient and highest performance platform for running Oracle databases. Exadata’s deployment is very straightforward since the database servers, storage servers, and network are pre-configured, pre-tuned and pre-tested by Oracle experts. This ensures that all your components work seamlessly together. Any Oracle Database application can be seamlessly migrated to and from the Exadata Database Machine, with no changes to the original application.
Powerful, cutting-edge hardware: Exadata is the most versatile database platform. It uses powerful database servers and a scaled-out, intelligent storage layer.
Accelerate database processing: Exadata Storage Server implements a unique, highly efficient database-optimized storage infrastructure that enables Exadata’s unparalleled performance without any of the bottlenecks that traditional storage experiences. Each storage server contains CPU processors that are used to offload database processing. The CPUs in the storage servers do not replace database CPUs, but work alongside them to accelerate database workloads.

Reviews from Real Users

Oracle Exadata stands out among its competitors for a number of reasons. Two major ones are its robust performance and its wide variety of database features that make it a comprehensive database solution.

Adriano S., an IT system integrator at a financial services firm, writes, "Oracle Exadata's performance is one of its best features. We are very satisfied with it. The previous equipment used to make a payment for all the government employees used to take at least two days for some of the transactions. Now, it will take hours to make the same amount of payments. Another thing is the flexibility to organize all our databases. We can use it with new features that come with this version of Oracle 19c, which is the container database. With container databases, we can work with many databases, organized, and segregated, and still access the functions and management, the things that most of the technical people like to have in place."

Paulo X., a sales manager at LTA-RH Informatica, notes, "Regarding features, there are so many that we can offer to customers. When we sell Exadata Cloud, there are many options to choose from, especially when it comes to enterprise database options. In my experience, the main features that are appreciated are various ones like GPS and the assortment of security options."
