Overall Satisfaction with Oracle Database
Oracle [Database] is used by [a] couple of departments to maintain Animation assets and for couple of applications in the Animation movie making workflow.
Pros
- Oracle's High Availability setup is very durable
- Performance of the database is very good for large databases
- DR setup is very reliable and can be setup easily
- ASM Storage management makes life easy in managing the datafiles
Cons
- Licensing cost is very expensive
- Sometimes getting an expert in Oracle support might be a challenge
- Multiple applications can use the same database and still get high performance
- Licensing cost is still a concern compared to the other options available in the market that are very very inexpensive
- Almost a maintenance free database
- Oracle Grid makes life easy in terms of monitoring and managing the databases
In my opinion, Oracle Database is highly reliable, has better performance with large databases and little to no maintenance once everything is setup. Also, recovery of the Oracle database is much simpler and easier.
