User Testimonials
	Adabas	Amazon SimpleDB
Likelihood to Recommend	Software AG It's well suited for applications running on z/OS I wouldn't consider it for applications on other operating systems Incentivized Gadi Ben-Avi z/OS system Programmer Read full review	Amazon AWS Well suited for: Games, Chat rooms, real time software like corporate events, marathons and so. Anytime and anywhere you could use a NoSQL DB you should think of SimpleDB. As an arduous AWS user, Amazon SimpleDB easily integrates with EC2 and other AWS module; and if you are not an AWS user, you also have a fantastic tool that will solve the problem for which you are focused.

Pros	Software AG It's efficient uses relativly few resources Incentivized Gadi Ben-Avi z/OS system Programmer Read full review	Amazon AWS Flexibility Easy to learn and use AWS integration Incentivized Miguel Angel Merino Vega Analista de Sistemas Read full review
Cons	Software AG Using newer features of z/OS pricing Incentivized Gadi Ben-Avi z/OS system Programmer Read full review	Amazon AWS Non AWS environments Strict storage limit (but well we have DynamoDB for storage issues) Incentivized Miguel Angel Merino Vega Analista de Sistemas Read full review
Likelihood to Renew	Software AG Converting to another DBMS is a huge project. Incentivized Gadi Ben-Avi z/OS system Programmer Read full review	Amazon AWS No answers on this topic
Alternatives Considered	Software AG Adabas uses resources better than DB2, but it doesn't use newer features of the hardware or operating system. Incentivized Gadi Ben-Avi z/OS system Programmer Read full review	Amazon AWS It integrates beautifully with AWS. In some projects we use SimpleDB while we use DynamoDB for others, according to the characteristics of the project. If the infrastructure is AWS, we always think of one of them.

Return on Investment	Software AG Every time we want to upgrade our computer, the pricing for adabas is a big concern Incentivized Gadi Ben-Avi z/OS system Programmer Read full review	Amazon AWS Reduced database administration time Reduced data model analysis time Lower cost of resources in projects in general Incentivized Miguel Angel Merino Vega Analista de Sistemas Read full review
