Overall Satisfaction with Oracle Enterprise Manager
Oracle Enterprise Manager is being used at a large federal department to manage, monitor and troubleshoot the production and other NPE environments. Target types include Siebel, Oracle Fusion Middleware (OBI, BIP), and Tomcat. It is used department-wide.
- Monitors the availability of Siebel.
- Integrates with Oracle Support to help troubleshoot issues by automatically looking up errors codes against known bugs.
- Performs configuration management of targets, allow the team to spot easily anomalies.
- Providing true RBAC when integrating with Active Directory. Some objects must be owned by individuals instead of AD groups.
- Incidents can only be assigned to individuals instead of teams, for example, the Siebel team or the Oracle DBA team, which could be an AD Group.
- Does not support newer versions of Microsoft IIS on Windows2016 Servers.
- Reduced the time to deploy applications.
- Increased reliability of systems in all environments via visual representation in the enterprise dashboard.
- Adaptable to monitor custom metrics that are specific to the business.
- SolarWinds Server & Application Monitor
OEM is better at monitoring applications, while SolarWinds is better at monitoring the underlying infrastructure such as networks, switches, and routers.
