Likelihood to Recommend I love its ability to work without manual configuration. ClusterControl has enabled us to control all servers across business and monitor overall server health with ease. ClusterControl ability to automate repetitive tasks has made my work easier and saves me a lot of time. It also offers a very good GUI.
Read full review Oracle Coherence can be used to solve latency problems by caching data near the application tier. In-memory performance helps to reduce data contention, thus improving application response time. Oracle Coherence does a great job at scaling linearly and can do so dynamically. Oracle Coherence can replicate data so it can be part of a disaster recovery solution. One thing that is often overlooked with elastic caches is their ability to analyze data in memory, leveraging the processing power of the data grid. This is something Oracle Coherence does exceptionally well. Oracle Coherence also provided event handling capabilities to allow applications to respond to events triggered by transactions.

Read full review Pros Proficient and proactive database monitoring, which governs security. Automation of the routine processes, more those those that entails repetitions. Further, ClusterControl has tools for performance optimization, which improves the quality of results. Lastly, ClusterControl supports database scaling and automation, a strategic option for efficient management. Read full review Performance. Superfast resolution of complex data grid queries. Reliability. Availability domain support for disaster recovery. Programming model. Frictionless API for use with Java 8. Read full review Cons It's holistic with data virtualization. Requires users with skills to install. Excellent with backup and instant recovery. Great for the safety and security of our data. Read full review I can't really come up with too many flaws, but possibly a bit expensive considering there are good open source caches like Ehcache. Read full review Support Rating Oracle Coherence support team is responsive and knowledgeable. We contacted them to ask a couple of design questions about how we were setting up Oracle Coherence based on how we used IBM's Datapower Extreme Scale. They were able to guide us so that we got the design correct the first time and didn't have to go back and re-architect our design later.

Read full review DataSynapse GridServer has the same cache functionality connected with a grid distributed application deployment platform. It provides all the necessary tools to configure and manage these applications. On the otherhand Oracle Coherence has more a flexible configuration and better performance. Also the Oracle configuration and monitoring tools are more convenient and informative than the DataSynapse ones.
Read full review Return on Investment It provides work efficiency because it offers timely notifications and alerts. ClusterControl has strong data security. It enables me to fully maximize data operation because it collects comprehensive performance data that I use to improve workflows, therefore boosting productivity. Read full review In my current project, it is yet to be decided as we are on the way to make it live for users. But I am sure it will be an added value to obtain timely calculations.
