Likelihood to Recommend If your company's value is not increased by maintaining databases, you should use the ATP.
Read full review On coming to well suited experience while error handling and effortless recovery processes are crucial, Tidal performs exceptionally well. It can identify and fix automated issues, reducing downtime and interruptions. A smaller automation solution may be more cost-effective if a business primarily utilizes a single platform or uses a small number of applications that do not require complex integration.
Read full review Pros Quick and simple to deploy (less than 5 steps to create a new instance) No administrative tasks (backup, re-sizing) required Read full review Tidal Automation allows us to automate and schedule/ perform various tasks in a easy and effective manner. It is highly interactive and effective allowing nearly 4k -5k jobs to run a day. Tidal is designed to be easily shareable and collaborative allowing multiple users to work at a particular time making work effective. Tidal allows us to ensure that every event which is triggered is exactly when it's supposed to be regardless of other activities which are going as well. It is user-friendly to generate the reports required of a particular object and allows us to test the codes perfectly well before executing in live environment. Read full review Cons 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 Read full review Still a bit slow when navigating. If you close a job you have to wait a few seconds to open another one. Even when you made no changes. When viewing a job and make no changes, the "ok" button changes the last modified date as if you made a change. No big deal, but wastes time when troubleshooting a problem and looking into what jobs were changed last. You can see the parameters column in the "job activity", but not in "Job definitions". Can't search the parameters field in the filter. Changing a variable name does not change it on the job. It still works because Tidal Automation uses the ID number. It just causes confusion when you see a variable on a job and can't find the variable under "Variables". On top of that, Tidal Automation does not show the ID column under "Variables" making it even more difficult to find the variable. Read full review Likelihood to Renew We are on the fence. The increased pricing for renewals is staggering. With new automation options like Microsoft's Power Automate and Event Driven
Ansible on the field, there are other options now available.
Read full review Usability 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.
Read full review Implementation Rating Having provided consulting services for years on Tidal by Redwood, I recommend going with a solutions partner or consultant to deploy it. I believe there are sizing and tuning guidelines that should be followed for environments of scale. I believe they are not critical when first lighting up the product, but if you are not aware of them you will encounter performance degradation after a few thousand job objects are added.
Read full review Alternatives Considered 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.
