Processes query faster through multiple systems simultaneously, but it could support different data types
We use the solution for various tasks, including preparing data marts and generating offers. It helps extract data based on rules from the policy team and provides insights to enhance business operations. We also analyze transactions to target customers and improve business performance The…

Handles large data volumes effectively but connection issues require attention
The Oracle NoSQL solution is used primarily for storing data for our web applications. We work alongside the DBA team for this purpose, given that specific departments manage aspects of its use. We choose it specifically to handle large scales of data, such as in one of our bank customer's scenarios using more than nine hundred gigabytes of data.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"I have found the solution to be scalable."
"It maximize cloud economics for mission-critical big data analytical initiatives."
"Eighty percent of the ETL operations have improved since implementing this solution."
"DBAs don’t need to add a partition every month/quarter like with other DBs."
"I like the projection feature, which increases query performance."
"The solution has great capabilities. The tool that instructs the internal database forward is easy to use and is very powerful."
"I enjoy the cybersecurity and backup features."
"The solution is quick, has good compression data, and is not expensive."
"The tool is easy to learn."
"NoSQL has high availability. I think it's perfect from a technical perspective. It's quick to run and go."
"The product meets expectations when it comes to stability."
"Oracle NoSQL is pretty scalable."
"We have a support agreement with Oracle, ensuring full support for the product. It is crucial for our public-facing features. Oracle NoSQL is easy to manage and has fast data retrieval. Its compatibility with Oracle Database is seamless, making integration between NoSQL and relational databases smooth and effortless. Oracle NoSQL and NoSQL data replication in our environment works efficiently. Oracle fully supports it, and we can easily configure and manage authentication for the NoSQL database."
 

Cons

"It should provide a GUI interface for data management and tuning."
"They could improve on customer service."
"I think they need an easy client so that you can write queries easily, but it's not necessarily a weak point. I think some users would need them."
"The product could improve by adding support for a wider variety of data types and enhancing features to better compete with other databases."
"I would personally like to see extended developer tooling suited to Vertica – think published PowerDesigner SQL dialect support."
"The integration with AI has room for improvement."
"There are a lot of limitations within this product and it makes things extremely hard for developers. It lacks Stored Procedure, packages, and triggers like other RDBMs."
"I believe the installation process could be streamlined."
"Focusing on making the administration easier compared to other solutions like MongoDB could be beneficial. Simplifying the administrative tasks could enhance the user experience."
"I would rate Oracle NoSQL six or 6.5 out of ten based on my experience."
"Handling big data in a user-friendly way is currently a bit of an issue. The dashboard for this needs some work."
"The installation is difficult."
"Oracle could improve how NoSQL works in containers. I don't think NoSQL needs any new features, but I want to see new features in the Oracle Cloud Infrastructure. I would like to see some improvements in OCI's building options."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"I am aware that we have licensed it, but I have no knowledge of its cost."
"The price could be cheaper and it is best to negotiate the price."
"The solution is free and we pay for the storage."
"Work with a vendor, if possible, and take advantage of more aggressive discounts at mid-fiscal year (April) and fiscal year-end (October).​"
"From a cost perspective, the software is less than most of its competitors."
"The price of Vertica is less expensive than some competitors, such as Teradata."
"Start with license per 1TB. Starting from hundreds of TB there is unlimited licensing to be considered. Move historical data to HDFS/S3 which are significantly cheaper or even free."
"Vertica is an expensive tool."
"The product is expensive and Oracle could work to lower the licensing cost."
