Overall Satisfaction with Oracle Enterprise Manager
We had used Oracle Enterprise Manager for our clients based out of the US, Canada, and Europe as an on-premise tool to manage all the major Oracle products used by the customer. Some of the Oracle Product Suites which the customer used were Oracle Database, Oracle SCM, Oracle HCM and Oracle EBusiness Suite. The enterprise manager was one single platform where all the customer's Oracle deployments could be managed. It helped us in managing Oracle EBIZ Application Management, Database Management, Database Performance Management and new installations and upgrades.
- Enterprise Manager Management Connector is one wonderful tool to connect to any third party applications. Some advanced notification methods are available for use cases varying between simple to complex in nature.
- Automatic Workload Repository (AWR) captures a snapshot of the operational statistics of the database at regular intervals. This helps in diagnosis in case of any issues going forward.
- Enterprise managers Oracle application management suite helps with automating all routine operations which would normally consume good man hours.
- Oracle Application Management Suite pro-active monitoring of various activities with the business application.
- Licensing agreement is complex in nature probably due to its enterprise-wide reach. It needs to be simplified to an extent.
- It is recommended to have all the patches and solutions required for the enterprise manager usage, as any missing patches may cause hindrance going forward.
- Hassle free management of entire Oracle Product Suite through a single platform has had a very positive impact. Significant savings in time for database administrators as most of their tasks like performance monitoring etc., could be automated.
- Performance monitoring and sending notification in case of any distress, helps the administrators make an informed and quick decision whenever any issue arises.
Oracle Enterprise Manager suited our requirement as the clients were using multiple products of Oracle. They were using several instance of oracle implemented at different geographical locations each in Europe, UK, Canada, and USA. So Oracle Enterprise Manager was best fit for the requirement as most of the product suites used were that of Oracle, hence would allow seamless integrations and implementation.
