Hi guys how are you? Today I want to share our new OTN article Building a 100% Cloud Solution with Oracle Data Integrator.
The article will cover how to integrate BICS, PBCS, DBCS and ODI and will explain step by step how to create a 100% cloud solution using ODI (everything on the cloud including ODI :)).

This is a perfect article for companies that are thinking to go cloud and have some doubts or even are thinking how you can integrate/use your actual infrastructure with the cloud services.

I hope you guys enjoy and see you soon.

DEVEPM will be at KScope 17!!!

Posted in ACE, EPM, Kscope 17, ODI, ODTUG on January 9, 2017 by Rodrigo Radtke de Souza

Hi all, how are you doing? With a little delay (sorry, I was on vacation 🙂 ) we are very happy to announce that DEVEPM will be once again at KScope! We are very honored to be selected to present on the best EPM conference in the word! Here is what we are going present at Kscope 17:

Data Warehouse 2.0: Master techniques for EPM guys (powered by ODI)

“EPM environments are generally supported by a Data Warehouse, however, we often see that those DWs are not optimized for the EPM tools. During the years, we have witnessed that modeling a DW thinking about the EPM tools may greatly increase the overall architecture performance.

The most common situation found in several projects is that the people that develops the data warehouse does not have a great knowledge about EPM tools and vice-versa. This may create a big gap between those two concepts which may severally impact performance.

This session will show a lot of techniques to model the right Data Warehouse for EPM tools. We will discuss how to improve performance using partitioned tables, create hierarchical queries with “Connect by Prior”, the correct way to use Multi-Period tables for block data load using Pivot/Unpivot and more. And if you want to go ever further, we will show you how to leverage all those techniques using ODI, which will create the perfect mix to perform any process between your DW and EPM environments.”

Kscope is the largest EPM conference in the world and it will be held on San Antonio, Texas on June 2017. It will feature more than 300 technical sessions, five symposiums, deep dive sessions, and hands on labs over the course of five days.

Got interested? If you register by March 25th you’ll take advantage of the Kscope early bird rates, then don’t waste more time and let’s be part of the greatest EPM event in the world. If you are still unsure about it, read our post about how Kscope/ODTUG changed our lives! Kscope is indeed a life changer event!

We have done a lot of cool stuff this year like being upgraded to ACE status, presented 2 sessions at Kscope16, 2MTT for Oracle OTN, article for Oracle OTN, got selected for Kscope 17, Ricardo got select to be part of the ODTUG leadership program and even moved to Ireland this year! An of course a lot of other EPM related topics 🙂

We would like to thank each one of you for accessing/reading/sharing our blog posts! I hope that we could positively impact your lives somehow with any of our post. That’s the reason why we blog: we want to somehow share our knowledge back to the community that always helped us in difficult times!

Here’s an excerpt:

The concert hall at the Sydney Opera House holds 2,700 people. This blog was viewed about 25,700 times in 2016. If it were a concert at Sydney Opera House, it would take about 9 sold-out performances for that many people to see it.
