The Oracle Big Data Cloud Service is a PaaS supporting data scientists with secured and encrypted Hadoop clusters, running a diverse set of workloads from Hadoop-only workloads (ETL,
Spark, Hive etc.) to interactive, all-encompassing interactive SQL queries using SQLon-Hadoop
tools and Oracle Big Data SQL Cloud Service. The Oracle Big Data Cloud Service includes automated lifecycle management and self-maintenance as well as additional access to Oracle analytics tools like Oracle Big Data Spatial…
Denodo allows us to create and combine new views to create a virtual repository and APIs without a single line of code. It is excellent because it can present connectors with a view format for downstream consumers by flattening a JSON file. Reading or connecting to various sources and displaying a tabular view is an excellent feature. The product's technical data catalog is well-organized.
Oracle Big Data SQL Cloud Service is useful for large organizations with more than 5,000 employees where it will help manage the company's human resources information, and also useful for companies who have a big number of items and so one, it's perfect for large organizations. Unfortunately, this makes it an expensive solution for small to medium organizations.
Caching - but I am sure it will be improved by now. There were times when we expected the cache to be refreshed but it was stale.
Schema generation of endpoints from API response was sometimes incomplete as not all API calls returned all the fields. Will be good to have an ability to load the schema itself (XSD/JSON/Soap XML etc).
Denodo exposed web services were in preliminary stage when we used; I'm sure it will be improved by now.
Export/Import deployment, while it was helpful, there were unexpected issues without any errors during deployment. Issues were only identified during testing. Some views were not created properly and did not work. If it was working in the environment from where it was exported from, it should work in the environment where it is imported.
Denodo is a tool to rapidly mash data sources together and create meaningful datasets. It does have its downfalls though. When you create larger, more complex datasets, you will most likely need to cache your datasets, regardless of how proper your joins are set up. Since DV takes data from multiple environments, you are taxing the corporate network, so you need to be conscious of how much data you are sending through the network and truly understand how and when to join datasets due to this.
