Overall Satisfaction with IBM Cloudant
We use IBM Cloudant primarily in our Watson IoT Platform, in combination with IBM Cloud Pak and Node-Red to receive and store IoT sensor data. It is used across a significant part of our organization, since we are an IBM Business partner for the entire IBM Maximo software stack. Everywhere IOT or Predictive Maintenance Insights is involved we make use of WIOTP in combination with IBM Cloudand.
- Watson IoT Platform--ease of use
- IBM Cloud Pak and Cloud Foundry apps--fast service connection
- Fast recovery
- Easy to merge databases
- API connectivity especially in combination with Node-Red causes too many connectivity errors / token errors.
- Sometimes it is difficult to store images (BLOB files). We always need to figure out how it was working. A better guidance/instruction on this would be appreciated
- Positive: past deployment and fast go-to-market (production)
- Negative: sometimes not all business requirements are covered or it is unknown how to implement them, but that is probably caused by lack of Cloudant knowledge
None, since we are a dedicated IBM Gold Business Partner as well as a respected IBM development and design partner, we stick with IBM products.
