“We use Oracle Business Suite as our primary ERP. We have acquired BICG product through Oracle, with plug in adapters, and thought we could do it on our own and after 3 years were unsuccessful. We contacted BICG … within a week we had working instance of the BI Aps. We decided we had to work with BICG. It has been 3years now, we have had BICG do training, had consultants onsite. It has been a great relationship. We are a reference often for Oracle, and when we are asked I tell them that they need to do business with a company like BICG. They have done wonderful work for us. They are the first ones that I would recommend to do the work.”

OBIEE 11g, Setup Client DSN for Administration Tool - How-To Video

| | | CommentComment

After installing the OBI 11g client tools each OBI developer or administrator will need to access the Oracle BI RPD using the OBI Administration Tool. The Administration Tool is the GUI that connects to the Oracle BI Server RPD in Online mode (or on the network in offline mode) allowing development and administration functionality of the RPD. The informal video below highlights the process in which to create an ODBC data source connection to the Oracle BI server and test that the connectivity is working.

 


 

This video how-to makes the assumption that the client workstation already has the OBI 11g binaries installed on the machine from any of the install options via the OBI11g installer.

This video is part of a series of videos on OBI 11g installation and configuration.

OBIEE 11g Certification Available

| | | CommentComment

Oracle tends to work hard to ensure that best practices are adhered to when working with their products. They even go as far to offer certifications which acknowledge one’s ability to demonstrate product knowledge and acuity for implementing, developing, etc. with Oracle products. The release of OBIEE 11g is no exception, and Oracle has recently released the OBI 11g Certification Exam for those so inclined and ready to be stamped as an OBI 11g guru.

This certification holds some similar exam topics to that of its predecessor certification exam for the 10.1.3.x OBI version. But clearly with OBI 11g there are many new areas on which to be tested. Reading over the OBI 11g Exam certification topics one can get a good feel for what Oracle thinks are “must have” areas within the new application to focus on. Even if not taking the exam, learning these topics should provide an administrator, developer, or super-user with keen insight to working with and implementing OBI 11g.
