Azure SQL Managed Instance vs. IBM Cloud Foundry

Runs the supply chain workload well. Able to provide proper alerts when the cpu is not enough to run the workload. Is able to run the update stats automatically as the data changes. Scales very well for most oltp apps. Has good dashboards to show what is going on the database.

IBM Cloud Foundry is a solid service from the IBM Cloud platform. It is easy to learn, and does not usually require you to make drastic changes to your existing applications. It is especially good for new applications that are cloud native, or micro-services, that can be easily updated and deployed. With its blue/green deployment, you can achieve 0 downtime for your customers.

• executes the queries efficiently
• has tools/dashboards to show where the query problems lie
• alerting for problems

Incentivized

• Intuitive user interface makes it easy for anyone to use, regardless of their professional background.
• A lot of the services integrate well with external platforms, APIs, and programs, not just IBM services. A lot of the competitors in this space lack this ability.
• Maybe it is just our contract in particular, but support and help is always made available.

Incentivized

• hard to use without Microsoft knowledge
• Intimidating CLI
• Commands are not intuitive

Incentivized

• Sometimes the API Connect GUIs don't cleanly disengage after attaching models or updating schema and it is hard to know what has been written successfully and which (if any) models or tables were missed. I shouldn't have to manually check through a list of 377 models to find the ones in and out of a list on either models, folder or database tables. Printing a summary even in logs which did a "diff" sort of thing between 'task-set' and 'task-completed' (referring to attaching models or updating schema as tasks here as 'tasks').
• Provide access to Postgres Database in Sydney datacentre for Australia.
• Clearer documentation around setting up a secure (referring to SSL and certificate setup here) server on eg, chubby1.au-sydney.mybluemix.net.
• Allow a ramp in pricing onto the Blockchains. We will not be able to afford it until quite a few years into production, even if we launch successfully.

it runs the workload very well without causing any issues to the business. there are many applications running on Azure SQL Managed Instances in my organization. Most users are happy with its performance. Is able to provide good dashboard for the visibility of the workload. Can add cpu without a downtime to deal with high workload.

Azure to our enviironment where we have everything integrated stacks up far better than MySQL where we would have to reinvent and use everything to fit a MySQL environment including the data and the commands within that data. Furthermore, doesn't work really well on SQL Management Studio which makes it completely useless for what we are trying to do.

IBM Cloud Foundry is our first choice industry-standard platform as a service (PaaS) which has always provided us with quicker, simpler, and more consistent ways for the deployment of the cloud-native applications which in result saved us lots of time and money.

Incentivized

• Decision Driven decisions have been quicker
• Negatively cumbersome at start when training
• Positive use of PaaS services instead of devoting VMs

Incentivized

• This was the founding solution used to allow us to move in to and test out a cloud pipeline. This is what paved the way for a full production cloud solution to be possible.
• Having Cloud Foundry at the base of our development and sandpit environment, segregated away from our standard on premise solution has moved away red tape and ensured an agile way forward.
