I guess it’s a British thing to not blow our own trumpet (does that translate the same over in the US?), but something I’m particularly proud about with the upcoming Rittman Mead BI Forum 2013 events is our Oracle Data Integration Masterclass, running on the Wednesday before each event properly starts, and put together by [...]

In the first two parts in this series, I looked at the recently-added support for Apache Hadoop as a data source for OBIEE 11.1.1.7 and ODI 11.1.1.6, and explained how the Hadoop support was really enabled through a related technology called Hive.
