Azure Cosmos DB vs. Oracle Autonomous Transaction Processing

Like any NoSQL database, whether it's MongoDB or not, it's best suited for unstructured data. It's also well suited for storing raw data before processing it and performing any type of ETL on the data.

If your company's value is not increased by maintaining databases, you should use the ATP.

• Scalable Instantly and automatically serverless database for any large scale business.
• Quick access and response to data queries due to high speed in reading and writing data
• Create a powerful digital experience for your customers with real-time offers and agile access to DB with super-fast analysis and comparison for best recommendation

• Quick and simple to deploy (less than 5 steps to create a new instance)
• No administrative tasks (backup, re-sizing) required

• Expensive, so be careful of the use case.
• We had a thought time migrating from traditional DBs to Cosmos. Azure should provide a seamless platform for the migration of data from on-premises to cloud.

Incentivized

• 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

It's efficient, easy to scale, and works. We do have to do a bit of administration, but less now than when we started with this a couple of years ago. Microsoft continues to improve its self-management capability.

It has very good compatibility and adaptability with other APIs and developers can safely create new apps because it is compatible with various tools and can be easily managed and run under the cloud, and in terms of security, it is one of the best of its kind, which is very powerful and excellent.

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.

Microsoft is the best when it comes to after-sales support. They have a well-structured training and knowledge base portal that anyone can use. They are usually quick to respond to cases and are on point for on-call support. I have no complaints from a support standpoint. Pretty happy with the support.

Cosmos DB is unique in the industry as a true multi-model, cloud-native database engine that comes with solutions for geo-redundancy, multi-master writes, (globally!) low latency, and cost-effective hosting built in. I've yet to see anything else that even comes close to the power that Cosmos DB packs into its solution. The simplicity and tooling support are nice bonus features as well.

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.

• It's made managing raw data much easier
• It provides a way to maintain raw data at a low cost
• It's easy to massage the data

Incentivized

• 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
