intelligence capabilities, an architectural feature embedded in the suite that

increasing the number of reports it offers to 581, up from 319. It will also
boost the number of business metrics to 254, up from 166. To make the
applications easier to use, a new interface can collapse more data into fewer
screens. For instance, a sales lead follow-up workflow that once required
navigating five screens has been shrunk to two on the new dashboard, he

"…New features are also coming to Oracle’s technology and
infrastructure portfolio. Oracle plans to enhance its business intelligence
platform part of the 10g Application Server suite to help compete with
Business Objects and Cognos, said Chuck Rozwat, executive vice president of
database technologies, who also participated in the webcast.

During the next several months, he said, Oracle expects to improve the front
end of its business intelligence offerings to allow them to be more
interactive with users. The new capabilities in the next iteration of the
Oracle Discoverer query, reporting and web publishing tool are designed to
help users of the business intelligence platform do drag-and-drop functions,
drill down through various data views and do personalization and publishing
routines."
