Oracle Magazine Article on Essbase 11.1.2

September 5th, 2010 by Mark Rittman

oramagoctMy latest article for Oracle Magazine is now available online, and this month it’s a joint effort between myself and Venkat.

“Using Oracle Essbase Release 11.1.2 Aggregate Storage Option Databases” takes a look at the new calculation capabilities in Essbase 11.1.2, in particular looking at how data can be aggregated, derived and allocated within 11.1.2 Essbase cubes and persisted in the database, opening up ASO databases to the kind of planning and budgeting applications previously restricted to BSO databases. If you’ve heard that aggregate storage is the strategic direction for Essbase but wondered how it could handle the sorts of calculations provided by block storage, you may well find this article interesting.

    Mark,

    I just started reading your blog entries. Awesome posts, a lot of useful information.

    I just got my first Hyperion v11.1.2.0 installed on a Linux box.
    However, i don’t know how to check whether all services are up or not. All the URLs that i see to interop, workspace or console are erroring out. I am new to Hyperion.

    Any help or suggestions to troubleshoot this please.

    Thanks
    Arul
