FYI, this story is more than a year old

Oracle has been named a Leader in Gartner's 2019 Magic Quadrant for Data Integration Tools report for the 11th consecutive year.

This year's report states, “The data integration tool market is resurging as new requirements for hybrid/intercloud integration, active metadata and augmented data management force a rethink of existing practices.

“We believe being recognised as a Leader in the Data Integration Tools category for more than a decade highlights Oracle's ongoing commitment to innovation around the industry's most challenging data issues,” says Oracle product management vice president Jeff Pollok.

“With more enterprises moving to cloud or hybrid-cloud environments, it's important that we continue to invest in our open platform. Not only do we help customers pull from hundreds of Oracle and non-Oracle sources based on their unique environments, but we help deliver value quickly by simplifying data tasks providing intuitive self-service for IT and business users.

Gartner estimates that “By 2021, more than 80% of organisations will use more than one data delivery style to execute their data integration use cases.” Oracle's data integration solution, including Oracle GoldenGate, Oracle Data Integrator and Oracle Enterprise Data Quality, deliver a proven and comprehensive solution to simplify enterprise data integration.

Oracle data integration allows enterprises to access and manipulate hundreds of data sources, whether on-premises or in the cloud, and accept any data in any shape or format.

This solution offers exciting opportunities to accelerate business transformation across a broad spectrum of enterprise customers and partners. We accomplish this by incorporating machine learning and artificial intelligence-powered features to help service all data integration needs.

Oracle also supports its customers by offering a vast network of technical consultants and service providers across its global partner network to aid in the implementation and management of their data integration technologies.

Strengths

  • Extensive stream data integration and replication scenarios.
  • Well positioned for HIP enablement. 
  • Global partner network. 

Cautions

  • Concerns with pricing and licensing models. 
  • Inconsistent support and solution delivery. 
  • Lack of awareness about modern integration capabilities among target base. 

Oracle was also recognised, for the fourth consecutive year, as a Leader in Cloud HCM Suites for Midmarket and Large Enterprises by Gartner.

The 2019 Gartner Magic Quadrant for Cloud HCM Suites for 1,000+ Employee Enterprises evaluates vendors based on completeness of vision and ability to execute.

Compared to the previous year, Oracle maintained its position as the vendor placed furthest for completeness of vision for Cloud HCM Suites within this category.
