Likelihood to Recommend It is appropriate in all scenarios. It is perfect to connect with the database. Actually, nothing to dislike in functionality and performance. It is stand-alone and doesn't need any additional application to be installed.
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 Far less connection failures. We had a lot of failures with the tool that we were using before. High performance and new features are really useful. Direct mode connectivity seems to make the difference that was very much needed. Works very well with Oracle Database 10g. 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 User Interface could be better. Error Messages and error handling could be improved to be more relevant and specific. Availability. 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 Support has been great so far but still, it could be better.
Read full review 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 Our organization has been largely moving into agile development life cycle and continuous integration is a key towards agile success. Automation is the first step towards continuous integration. We are really happy using Devart as a part of our automation engineering. It definitely contributes towards overall success. We are trying to extend the usage. The development team has also shown interest towards the usage. This is a cost effective tool. It is worth the price. 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.
