Oracle Data Integration Platform Cloud (discontinued) vs. Panoply

For daily transactional information and customer data needs it has been an extremely fast and reliable system. Several thousand users are able to connect many third party tools and run a large number of extracts while still experiencing great performance. For smaller systems in use with limited user accounts this system is less appropriate due to maintenance resources required.

Panoply is well suited for companies with large amounts of data that do not want all users of the company to see or view. It is appropriate for companies that have to store data for several years in case clients need the data. It is not made to constantly be downloading or looking at the documents.

Incentivized

• ODI uses ELT architecture, which enhances the load performance and is very scalable.
• ODI is platform independent. It supports all platforms, hardware and operating systems.
• It comes with pre-built integration, allowing immediate data replication, transformation, and data governance while ensuring data quality.

Incentivized

• Ease of data integrations. Importing data into the data warehouse is a point-and-click effort.
• Automated data modeling. The data is modeled in a way that facilitates analysis without having to look into it myself.
• Query speed. Automated query optimization has really sped up our dashboards.

• Training and ramping up to learn all the Oracle specific intricacies.
• Security concerns with administering some of the tools to end users.

Incentivized

• The user interface could use some improvement for analytical tools. Apart from that, it’s great.

It’s a good choice for building a quick, multipurpose data stack for a variety of businesses needs.

We are longtime ODI on-premise users. So, it was easy for us to migrate to the ODI cloud rather than implementing another solution.

Incentivized

Panoply has much more storage and better organization tools for searching. There are better folders and tools for keeping documents secure and stored for a long period of time. It is better to offload data in mass than singular or Zip drive documents like you would do in Google Drive.

Incentivized

• Ability to setup reliable disaster recovery.
• Upgrades and performance monitoring tools are readily available.

Incentivized

• Saved time on Redshift setup
• Saved support costs (monetary and temporal) by not having to set up on-premise
• Widens the BI tool use in organization; lowers the barrier to entry and makes organization more productive in analytical terms
