What is Oracle Enterprise Manager?

The Oracle Enterprise Manager is an on-premises monitoring and management tool. It is designed primarily to manage the Oracle deployments in an environment but supports connectors in order to integrate with non-Oracle components. The OEM is scaled to manage enterprise-level applications, databases, hardware, virtual environments, and cloud-based systems.

Oracle’s Enterprise Manager also offers a drag-and-drop user interface, requiring minimal training or technical knowledge for usability. It also enables some automation, including generating routine reports, database backups, and problem detection and resolution, even on remote sites.

In short, Oracle Enterprise Manager (OEM) is designed for frontline DBA rather than DBA managers who want to get ad-hoc information. For frontline DBA, it is easy to see an incident and take actions. Almost all details are captured and organized in tabs. That is beautifully done. As a manager, it is hard to get a complete picture of operational status based on his selection criteria. In large EM deployments, mostly, targets are organized by using admin group. Besides, the incident records displayed by clicking on [Get Results] cannot be saved as Excel sheet. If that can be one, we can use Excel features to compare. Besides, OEM is inconsistent in log management. Certain results can be saved in offline format and certain cannot. It is extremely important to save procedure activity log in an offline html that preserves the format for internal auditing requirements. This proves a task is done successfully in OEM.

For large organizations with many Oracle database projects across the fleet, there is no better choice. Otherwise ops teams will be doomed to maintain homegrown scripts that are error prone and would not scale well across many databases. Having a single pane of glass for DB management has been a real paradigm shift made possible by Oracle Enterprise Manager.

From my experience, I believer Oracle Enterprise Manager makes life easy for the management of all the databases and their components over URI as well as for automating certain management tasks using the command line. It's a blessing, especially when there are hundreds of databases with different database versions (because of legacy applications) running.

Well suited to monitor the Oracle application stack, right from Exa-systems, databases and oracle applications.
Not so much support for third-party applications. Not great for monitoring network traffic on a host, I.E. top-talkers.

It's great for managing many database systems, from hundreds to thousands of systems. If your system has few databases, it may not be suitable. It also monitors other non-Oracle systems.

If you have small databases that are lightweight and are low-maintenance, OEM may not be useful. For larger companies, it can be very useful.

If you have an Oracle environment. It is necessary.

You will save time at admin operations. You get comfort with well designed GUI. You will have a great visibility at its topology, hardware and software.

You can advanced operations like firmware os update, live migration on LDOMs, snap operations at ZFS, etc easily. Auto case submit.

But If you do not have it does not suit you.

Oracle Enterprise Manager is well suited if you have to manage multiple databases. It helps with job configuration, not only for the database but also for each database host. It allows you to run different types of jobs on each host and you can run pl/sql jobs or host scripted jobs from each server.

OEM is very well suited for all Oracle products, especially Oracle databases and Exadata machines; even not Oracle hardware, it is very good and displaying high level details.
OEM is not well suited for older hardware vendors like AIX, HP-UX, DEC/Digital, Microsoft (sql server). This is a big negative as most large companies have a heterogeneous environment with many different vendor hardware and (database) software products.

Oracle Enterprise Manager is well suited for monitoring multiple oracle database, especially RAC databases (where multiple hosts are involved in clusters). It is probably an overkill if just for one or two single instances. It is also good at troubleshooting complex performance issues with queries, when an effective time-based monitoring on multiple facets of the system (CPU, memory, I/O, and SQL plans, etc) is needed. It is a good tool to present such information as well, in a well laid out, graphical manner.

Oracle Enterprise Manager (OEM) is well suited for administering and monitoring Oracle databases. While it can also monitor other types of databases, it is not as robust in doing so.

Oracle Enterprise Manager (OEM) is suitable for a large scale Oracle DB and middle-layer product operation. Suitable if the monitoring of hundreds of Oracle databases is needed in one portal.

Oracle Enterprise Manager is well suited to an organization using multiple Oracle Product Suites and they want a single platform for managing the different Oracle products as well as any third party products. OEM has standard plugins available which will enable easy integration with third-party products. Enterprise Manager may not be well suited for an organization which may not be primarily using Oracle products.

Oracle EM is perfect for monitoring database performance, alerting dba's of critical thresholds, setting up simple tasks using oracle scheduler, identifying problematic scripts or code that are degrading database performance, identifying and resolving blocking sessions and locking sql, and many other database performance monitoring tasks. Where it is a little less suited is configuring backups with non oracle backup systems such as NetApp, monitoring end users connections to the database, some administration tasks such as resizing the SGA or adding datafiles to tablespaces, or changing database configuration files such as the pfile.

It is click based, intuitive and procedural. If well documented, OEM lets you do the desired task in an easy manner. On the other hand, Oracle Enterprise Manager can only be easier managing Oracle products. It may not work that well with other products from other vendors.
