Overall Satisfaction with Oracle Database 12c

It’s nimble and very convenient to use. I’ve no learning curve for various version upgrades. It’s great. We use it for migration and transformation of millions of records between varied systems such as DB2, Salesforce, Netezza, etc.
  • Fast
  • Convenient
  • Crazy good
  • No issues.
  • I wish it indicated when network is slow.
  • Missing UI to write complex queries.
  • I started my career with Oracle more than a decade back. I still use it. I don't see anything replacing it for our purpose.
  • Business relies on us for various system integrations. We use Oracle as a middle storage before we load data.
  • I do not see any negative impact. However, we wish there was a nice editor to group data and write complex queries.
MySQL: I used MySQL as part of an old CRM. I think that's also light. But, Oracle seems to have better speed and reliability.
DB2: I used DB2 mainly on mainframe and z/OS. I always felt that it's cumbersome to access and write queries on DB2.
We use it to transform data temporarily before we ETL them. We ETL millions of records from old CRM to Salesforce CRM. We use Oracle as a temporary storage to transform and clean data. It is really fast and helpful for this middle step of E-T-L. We also use AQs on Oracle.
