    It's great if you are using or wish to use PostgreSQL and need the added performance optimization, security features and developer and DBA tools. If you need compatibility with Oracle it's a must-have. There are many developer features that greatly assist dev teams in integrating and implementing complex middleware. It's great for optimizing complex database queries as well as for scaling. I would recommend Postgres Plus Advanced Server for any software development team that is hitting the limit of what PostgreSQL is capable of and wants to improve performance, security, and gain extra developer tools.

    if you need to automate reports pulling information directly from your data source Savant is the tool you need, it's very simple, easy to set up and also it's very reliable, we've never had a time where the service is down and that's something worth mentioning because making something easy to use and reliable is not easy.

    Pros
    EnterpriseDB
    • PPAS Oracle compatibility, especially the PL/SQL syntax, has made migrating database-tier code very simple. Most Oracle packages do not need to be changed at all and those that do are generally for simple reasons like a reserved word in PPAS that is allowed in Oracle.
    • PPAS xDB, the multi-master replication tool, is simple and - most important - does not break with network or other interruptions. We have been able to configure and forget, which our customers could never do with other multi-master tools.
    • Most people had no idea that PPAS and PostgreSQL have full CRUD support for JSON. They think you need a specialized product and/or that JSON is read-only. Every organization that I have worked with is evaluating adding JSON to their relational model.

    Cons
    EnterpriseDB
    • Documentation is excellent but spread out across many resources and can take a while to wade through—would benefit from having more intro level, getting started guides for various languages.
    • Ruby support is excellent but more Ruby examples and beginner-level documentation would be nice.
    • It is sometimes hard to find a community of users on StackOverflow so a larger community, and a dedicated forum with active members to answer questions and work through issues would be nice.

    • Let the user implement HTML code to the automated emails
    • let you sync again with the data source when a new column is added without the need to re run the bot
    • dark theme.

    Because it has made things much easier for us, sometimes the stake holders need the data in a certain way in a certain time and with Savant that's not a problem anymore, in fact we are able to customize a little bit more the emails and not send any if there is nothing to report on which is great.

    Alternatives Considered
    EnterpriseDB
    PPAS proved better for our customer's data-centric apps than Oracle in all but a few edge cases (encryption at rest and multi-TB database-tier backups) because it is simpler to install/maintain, runs nearly all Oracle-syntax SQL as well as ANSI SQL. PPAS has much more JSON capabilities (full CRUD vs. read-only in Oracle), simpler geospatial, simpler / more stable replication and datatypes that match developer expectations, such as BOOLEAN and ENUMs.

    Return on Investment
    EnterpriseDB
    • Postgres Plus Advanced Server is quite complex and may take longer to implement certain things than simply using PostgreSQL depending on developer familiarity with the platform.
    • Getting up to speed can be daunting so again, there is an upfront cost in time spent learning the platform, besides the potential for extra time spent on a feature-by-feature basis.
    • The cost of Postgres Plus Advanced Server should be weighed against simply using PostgreSQL to decide which is the best solution for your business needs.

    • We can rely on Savant to reduce our capacity units from our power bi license by automating reports there
    • we don't have to worry about sending emails with new data all the time
    • We needed 2 people for our data pull request demand with Savant just 1 person can maintain the entire reporting system
