Watch: Unpacking The New Oracle BI Apps (Now With ODI!)

The new release of the Oracle BI Applications (11.1.1.7.1) now leverages Oracle Data Integrator (ODI). This huge development means that ODI can alternatively be utilized as the primary data integration tool over Informatica. ODI and its Extract-Load-Transform functionality could provide customers a setup that delivers increased performance and reduced data integration costs.

On June 21st, KPI Partners broadcast a webinar as part of KPI’s web series on Examining Oracle BI Applications 11g which explored:

• ODI for BI Apps architecture
• Components of the BI Applications
• Integration with operational systems: Is this supported ERP/CRM sources or application integration?
• Fusion Middleware components: How is this different from OBIA components?
• Enabling insight & alignment across business functions with OBIA

Get access to a recording from our live webcast featuring Vikas Agrawal (KPI Partners) and Hari Cherukupally (Oracle) that examined the latest Oracle Business Intelligence Applications architecture as well as a detailed look into each of the components of the new BI Apps.
