User Testimonials
	Amazon SimpleDB	Oracle Autonomous Transaction Processing
Likelihood to Recommend	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. Incentivized Miguel Angel Merino Vega Analista de Sistemas Read full review	Oracle If your company's value is not increased by maintaining databases, you should use the ATP. Peter Merkert CTO (Chief Technical Officer) Read full review
Pros	Amazon AWS Flexibility Easy to learn and use AWS integration Incentivized Miguel Angel Merino Vega Analista de Sistemas Read full review	Oracle Quick and simple to deploy (less than 5 steps to create a new instance) No administrative tasks (backup, re-sizing) required Incentivized Lisandro Fernigrini Sr. Software Developer / DBA Read full review
Cons	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	Oracle Connectivity between ATP and Oracle Kuberentes Engine cluster seems to drop randomly The ATP could come in an even smaller shape as the smallest shape is already quite big . But if must be more than always free, as that version does have connectivity limitations about 20 connections Peter Merkert CTO (Chief Technical Officer) Read full review
Usability	Amazon AWS No answers on this topic	Oracle You get almost all the features of Oracle Database, including the ability to deploy APEX applications, without having to worry about system, storage or database configuration and maintenance, backups, etc. Also, you can start for free and move up adding resources as you need. Incentivized Lisandro Fernigrini Sr. Software Developer / DBA Read full review
Alternatives Considered	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. Incentivized Miguel Angel Merino Vega Analista de Sistemas Read full review	Oracle Both Azure SQL Database and Oracle Autonomous Transaction Processing offer a powerful and robust database platform. The advantage of Autonomous Transaction Processing is the ability to host APEX applications for free and without any special/complicated deployment or configuration process. Having a rapid development environment embedded for free was the main advantage for choosing Oracle as my cloud database provider. Incentivized Lisandro Fernigrini Sr. Software Developer / DBA Read full review
Return on Investment	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	Oracle Approx 100 times faster spin up than manual setup of an Oracle DB 3h annual maintenance for big version releases (18c to 19c) compared to est. 500h annual maintenance with manual database updates Peter Merkert CTO (Chief Technical Officer) Read full review
