OBIEE 12c Bootcamp

Course Overview

Our OBIEE 12c Bootcamp course covers everything you need to know to develop a reporting and dashboards system from scratch, including new features such as Visual Analyser and data-mashups. It assumes no prior knowledge up-front, but for users of earlier versions it also covers the upgrade process and key differences from the 11g version.

The course starts by covering basic reporting, dashboards and analysis including use of the new Visual Analyser tool; then, the focus moves onto the data and repository layer showing you how to create an BI Repository (RPD) against both transactional and data warehouse databases. The final day of the course covers systems management including the new Baseline Validation Tool, and takes attendees through OBIEE 12c underlying architecture including security and the installation process.
