Why and why not to use Oracle12c Database?
- Positive Impact - I have been serving as a DBA to a Aviation Industry customer since 2009. Aviation Industry User community believes that Oracle database product is best product in the world. The reason would be it has been in the market for many years, more reliable product and the customer has more confidence in Oracle than others, has good market reputation, so many oracle expertise easily available whenever and where ever needed in affordable cost.
- Positive Impact - Oracle12c with - ODA, Exadata, Big data appliance, Super cluster, and Oracle12c cloud offering are becoming popular day by day.
- Negative Impact - Oracle licensing cost has been one of the most debatable topics in business user community every year.

My Succinct Oracle Database Satisfaction Recap
- I am not 100% certain, but I heard that Oracle's licensing model is based on client metrics.
- These days Oracle is seen by many as an outgoing database provider, especially if the Cloud use is intended, this is despite Oracle offers its own cloud, which remains nearly the least used in the World.
- For decades, Oracle was a go-to solution in the corporate world as it advanced its database offerings very much and it remains very competitive

Oracle did not live up to our expectations
- We wasted lots of money (Oracle is crazy expensive), time and effort on the project and were highly relieved when we found a different approach to supporting our aging ERP app that did not include Oracle.
- Because of the difficulty of using Oracle, we spent a lot of money on consultants to help us over the conversion hump. Also wasted. And it was interesting to see them struggle with the software. Upgrades never went well always requiring multiple site visits, for example.

Oracle 12c feedback in ERMX
- The main item to be pointed out for ROI is the lack of downtime that we personally have experienced. Our systems nowadays are more stable, improving all areas of operation.
November 20, 2019
Immensely complicated
- Initially, we purchased oracle for our website because it had a much lower licensing cost than Sybase (our dominant DB) for such tasks.
- Over time, the level of effort required to keep it up, keep replication working, training and the like turned into a far greater expense than simply paying Sybase the extra licensing.
- For us, the Oracle database was a financial disaster.

Oracle Database review

Why Oracle Database is right for you
- We were using a lot of open-source systems before, but using Oracle's enterprise solution has definitely given us the support we needed as well as the performance guarantees that were promised.
- I would consider huge licensing costs as well have delayed support responses as the downside to using Oracle Database.
