Offers integration with many technologies for your applications but the suite should be simplified

We use Oracle SOA for teaching processes only. We have about forty users on the platform at a time I like the amount of technology that is involved in the Oracle SOA Suite. You can use a lot of technologies. The Oracle SOA Suite could be simplified. Currently, it is pretty difficult. We have…

Enables seamless integration with multiple systems

I would rate the scalability a seven out of ten. It's not much more dynamic, not as dynamic as you may think, like seeing it in the cloud. In order to use it, you need to have the download servers and then scale up your systems. Oracle SOA Suites serves as a middle layer between applications. For example, let's say you have SAP, and we have Salesforce or Oracle ERP system. Users connect to those systems and perform certain activities or transactions on the applications. Now, if any data needs to be synchronized or any integration needs to happen between these applications, we use the Oracle SOA Suite. It acts as the bridge between the applications, not between the users. It's like having endpoints between the applications. Currently, we have 20 endpoints; 20 systems are connected to it, which is great. Oracle SOA Suite is being used daily. We are using it to its maximum potential.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"There are adapters which make it easier to build integrations between different technologies."

"I like the amount of technology that is involved in the Oracle SOA Suite."

"It automated the way we did system integrations. Now, information is available on different systems to the correct people."

"Enables our Product Manager to post products to different outside EC platforms with only one interface and one process."

"The integration with various products."

"The ability to stand up a highly available SOA Suite, which has full DR capabilities, in a remote center and synchronize the databases using Data Guard."

"Provides connectivity between discrete systems and has availability."

"Valuable features include web service development and cloud connectivity."

"Valuable features include connectors and BAM."

"We were able to scale out using multiple application and web servers balanced by hardware load balancers and Weblogic clustering."

"Conceptually, how it integrates a lot of essential enterprise process components. That's the most valuable."

Cons

"As PaaS solution in the cloud, it should be easy to maintain this solution."

"The initial setup is complex. Many solutions out-of-the-box did not work as expected. The documentation provided Is particularly poor."

"The system is very unstable, and any modifications to the server or in the application can make the whole system stop."

"The Oracle SOA Suite could be simplified."

"Its function options can be improved."

"The product is not user-friendly."

"SOA, OSB, SOA Cloud Service."

"The solutions can improve the communication or translations between formats, such as JSON and XML. The JSON REST API could improve."

"The interface is too complicated. Making modifications still requires too much technical knowledge."

"Another area of improvement is performance. Because with multiple solutions connecting to the SOA platform, the performance of the SOA platform can be affected in time. So, that could be one area that could be improved with the SOA."

"Various parts of SOA, BPEL, and so on, each have their own consoles which need to be accessed individually with different logins. It would be better from an admin perspective if all the consoles were accessible via a single login."

"It's also not developer-friendly."

More Oracle SOA Suite cons

Pricing and Cost Advice

"It is an interesting solution, but only if you get a good price for it. Usually there are better options in the market with better prices."

"The pricing is not very high as compared to its competitors."

"Oracle pricing is expensive. Support is based on your license. AWS is much better than Oracle in this regard."

"It is necessary to evaluate the requirement regarding the platform usage and what the main operation area of the platform will be."

"Based on my knowledge, Oracle SOA Suite doesn't have user-based licensing. It has a system-based licensing model, so you pay for whole systems. Oracle SOA Suite is an expensive solution, so it's a four out of ten for me."

"This product is WebLogic based, hence it can be both resource hungry as well as expensive from a licensing point of view."

"The product is moderately priced."

"Oracle SOA Suite is an expensive solution."

SOA Suite

Overview

SOA Cloud Service provides an integration platform as a service (iPaaS) so that you can quickly provision your new platform, start developing and deploying your APIs and integration projects and provide real-time analytics as you transition to Digital Business.

Oracle

Oracle SOA Suite is a comprehensive, standards-based software suite to build, deploy and manage integration following the concepts of service-oriented architecture (SOA). The components of the suite benefit from consistent tooling, a single deployment and management model, end-to-end security and unified metadata management. Oracle SOA Suite helps businesses lower costs by allowing maximum re-use of existing IT investments and assets, regardless of the environment (OS, application server, etc.) they run in, or the technology they were built upon. Its easy-to-use, re-use focused, unified application development tooling and end-to-end lifecycle management support further reduces development and maintenance cost and complexity.
