Google Cloud SQL vs. Tibero

Does what it promises well, for instance, as a sidecar for the main enterprise data warehouse. However, I would not recommend using it as the main data warehouse, particularly due to the heavy business logic, as other dedicated tools are more suitable for ensuring scalable operations in terms of change management and multi-developer adjustments.

It's a good choice when it comes to switching to a lower but similarly stable and scalable database solution. For any enterprise that needs a robust set of features when choosing a database vendor you have a few choices, paid (expensive or lower cost) or open source. Depending on your needs Tibero might be a good fit.

• Very easy to use and migrate existing database systems to Google Cloud SQL system
• Easy to query with real-time query assessment as well as processing metrics to help optimize the queries
• No need to learn any other querying language (like in Hadoop ecosystem), as SQL works pretty fine
• Easy-to-use GCP portal to type in queries and see the results on the screen (no need to go on command line )
• Easy to set up

• Robustness
• Feature set
• Security
• Cost

• Increasing support for more database engines may enable a wider range of application needs to be met.
• Implementing and updating cutting-edge security features on a constant basis.
• Streamlining and enhancing the tools for transferring data to Google Cloud SQL from on-premises databases or other cloud providers.

• Working with Tibero for the last 5 years, I haven't noticed any issues so far.

It fits the current needs and bandwith of out lean organization.

As with other cloud tools, users must learn a new terminology to navigate the various tools and configurations, and understand Google Cloud's configuration structure to perform even the most basic operations. So the learning curve is quite steep, but after a few months, it gets easier to maintain.

GCP support in general requires a support agreement. For small organizations like us, this is not affordable or reasonable. It would help if Google had a support mechanism for smaller organizations. It was a steep learning curve for us because this was our first entry into the cloud database world. Better documentation also would have helped.

Unlike other products, Google Cloud SQL has very flexible features that allow it to be selected for a free trial account so that the product can be analyzed and tested before purchasing it. Integration capabilities with most of the web services tools are easier regarding Google Cloud SQL with its nature and support.

I know Oracle, IBM's DB2, and Microsoft SQL Server are also commonly used DBMSs. We selected Tibero, because unlike DB2 and SQL Server, it is fully SQL compliant and therefore switching away from Oracle was very low risk for us despite never using Tibero before. We knew that worst case, we just go back to Oracle. However, after using Tibero, we realized it just makes more sense for us financially. Why pay for something more? It is identical to Oracle and claims to have better security. So far no problems.

• The first one is it's performance is very good and it comes up with different solution.
• Security can be improved for external resources or the schemas which are selected in it.
• It can be more fragile so one can use it in the business purposes and this will make it a great product.

• Because Tibero's licensing and support fees are half of Oracle's, we were able to allocate the extra budget to other departments that were in greater need for those funds.
