Hi Gerard

Good to hear from you. We’re actually closing the call for papers tomorrow, could you pull an abstract together in the next day or so? We’re light on any performance tuning, BI Server internals, “heavily technical” server-side content – I’m planning on writing a BI Server internals one in collaboration with Oracle, if you’re interested in helping, or have a similar type of topic that would be of interest, that’d be great.

Similarly, anything on BI Apps performance tuning – ETL or queries – would be great.

best regards

Mark

Hi Mark, I definitely want to contribute to this initiative. I offer to cover subjects like advanced modeling; understanding the query engine, mobile analytics, in-depth deployment architectures; performance tuning checklist (from DW to OBIEE); the role of OBIEE in Marketing etc etc.

Please keep me informed about this initiative.

Thanks
Gerard

Its good idea. But pls includes others too.

So we can have general ppl from different walks of the BI ( I am talking abt the open source guys).

Now a days open source BI solution is also in market.

Great idea, I would be very interested since focus on OBIEE is not so common.

Since we’re also using Hyperion Planning, I’m also interested in Essbase and Planning … but I think it’s better to focus on OBIEE.

Please let me know how it will evolve.

Regards.

Great idea, I would be very interested.
As for more detailed questions:
(1) would prefer to keep focus on OBIEE and maybe ODI;
(2) any time of week is fine, however friday would be excellent.

Hi everyone,

Thanks for the support, this is all really encouraging. I’ve had about 10 people write to me privately and say they are interested, so it looks like it might be viable, interest-wise. What I’ll be doing over the next couple of weeks is checking out some venues, running the numbers and see if we can make it work. I’ll add everyone who’s expressed interest to a private mailing list and keep everyone informed as we go along.

If you’d be interested in submitting a paper, or selecting the papers that get submitted, let me know. Also I’d be keen to hear if you think we should just focus on OBIEE or broaden the subject area a bit, and whether we should run it during the week or over the weekend.

best regards

Mark
