Google Cloud SQL vs. InterSystems IRIS

Does what it promises well, for instance, as a sidecar for the main enterprise data warehouse. However, I would not recommend using it as the main data warehouse, particularly due to the heavy business logic, as other dedicated tools are more suitable for ensuring scalable operations in terms of change management and multi-developer adjustments.

Intersystems IRIS is a really great tool for Interoperability. It has so many capabilities out of the box and then such a great developer community on top of that, that there are really no limits to what you can do in terms of data manipulation and translation. Personally I find it to be a great tool if you are looking for Interoperability software.

• It has a easily and user understandable interface which provides it every necessary feature to come up with.
• It's backend is very strong that can help us to run big quieres without any hesitation.
• It's integration with other tools are one of the powerful feature which makes it more suitable to use.

• Connecting with mutliple vendor platforms and systems allowing us to consume and provide data as needed.
• Allowed us to implement our own RESTful api engine to server data to our internal applications.
• Setting up their recommendations for high availability allow us to perform server maintenance with minimal down time to our users.

• Increasing support for more database engines may enable a wider range of application needs to be met.
• Implementing and updating cutting-edge security features on a constant basis.
• Streamlining and enhancing the tools for transferring data to Google Cloud SQL from on-premises databases or other cloud providers.

• Enhanced documentation, more comprehensive and user-friendly documentation, including detailed tutorials and examples
• Improving compatibility and integrations with others programming languages
• Introducing tools and techniques to optimize the performance of ObjectScript applications, such as profiling tools, performance monitoring utilities, and code optimization guidelines
• A better compatibility with Python libraries

It fits the current needs and bandwith of out lean organization.

As with other cloud tools, users must learn a new terminology to navigate the various tools and configurations, and understand Google Cloud's configuration structure to perform even the most basic operations. So the learning curve is quite steep, but after a few months, it gets easier to maintain.

The interface is very intuitive, the documentation is very good so it is not complicated to operate.

The security is complex, but you can create a special role to access and the user ONLY can operate with the part that it allows.

Also, you can examine the data very quick with the SQL Browser integrated.

GCP support in general requires a support agreement. For small organizations like us, this is not affordable or reasonable. It would help if Google had a support mechanism for smaller organizations. It was a steep learning curve for us because this was our first entry into the cloud database world. Better documentation also would have helped.

The InterSystems WRC has always been helpful and responsive. The folks I have spoken with are always understanding of our needs and questions and regardless of if the question is simple or complex we are always met with the same professionalism and helpfulness every time. I have no hesitations contacting InterSystems for help!

Will done based on a proper planning, so this will makes execution more easier and better.

Unlike other products, Google Cloud SQL has very flexible features that allow it to be selected for a free trial account so that the product can be analyzed and tested before purchasing it. Integration capabilities with most of the web services tools are easier regarding Google Cloud SQL with its nature and support.

We are using InterSystems IRIS [especially] for database operations as the query performance is really good for [a large] amount of customer data. You can easily integrate for any application like web, desktop, and many more. It also provides BI functionality which is also very easy to implement using InterSystems IRIS[.]

• With managed database system, it has given us near 100% data availability
• It has also improved web layer experience with faster processing and authentication using database fields
• Google Cloud SQL also gels up well with Google Analytics and other analytics systems for us to join up different data points and process them for deeper dives and analysis

• Very Fast and scalable software to deal with big data flow, safe and robust.
• The studio IDE is quite old fashion and lacks a few facilities
• amazing for complex data consumption, its milyi-model capability wich allows multiple different models for a single set of codes.
