Introducing Oracle BI Applications 11.1.1.7.1 and ODI 11g
All-new, 11g release of the BI Applications
New content, applications, uptakes OBIEE 11g visuals etc
Simplified topology - now uses ODI 11g for the ETL
! Option to continue using Informatica using upcoming release
No DAC - uses web-based configuration tools, and ODI,
to control and orchestrate the ETL
Lower TCO, faster ETL, simpler architecture
So how does it all work...?
Whats New in Oracle BI Applications 11.1.1.7.1?
New Content Enhancements
New Data Integration
New TCO Tools
New Applications & Adapters
New OBIEE 11.1.1.7
Oracle Data
Integrator
Oracle
GoldenGate
Student Information Analytics
Price Analytics for EBS
! GUI Based Configuration
! Functional Setup Tool
! Financials: Fixed Assets, Budgetary Analysis
! HR: Time & Labor, Payroll Analysis
! Projects: Resource Management, GL reconciliation
! CRM: Service Contracts, Price Analytics for EBS
! Procurement & Spend :Sourcing
! Supply Chain: Costing, Inventory Aging & Cycle Counts
Migrating and Upgrading to BI Apps 11g
BI Apps 11.1.1.7.1 is ODI-only, and for Apps Unlimited customers (i.e. EBS, PSFT, Siebel - not Fusion
Apps)
Future patch release will support Fusion Apps sources
Plan is to also offer BI Apps 11g with Informatica ETL
Going forward, ODI releases will come first, INFA
will be a port of ODI mappings
! But INFA will be supported for foreseeable future
No upgrade to BI Apps 11.1.1.7.1, so ideally for:
! New implementations
! Re-implementations
* As of Jan 2013, from Oracle Product Roadmap presentation. Subject to change.
Oracle BI Applications 11.1.1.7.1 Product Architecture
All server-side BI Apps components now run within
WebLogic Server Domain
Web-based apps for configuring and controlling
the ETL process
ODI agent runs within WebLogic domain, uses
WLS security etc
ODI Console embedded in web apps, used for
web-based detailed monitoring of loads
ODI Studio available for developer tasks
No DAC - functionality now handled by ODI,
Configuration Manager and FSM
Option to use GoldenGate for trickle-feed loading
into staging area, remove issue of load windows

BI Apps 11.1.1.7.1 and GoldenGate
Oracles cross-platform data replication (CDC) solution
Can be used in conjunction with BI Apps 11.1.1.7.1 and a new data layer called Source-Dependent
Staging
! Replica of source tables, held locally to BI Apps and with GG/ODI journaling
Near-zero impact of ongoing data extraction
! No ETL batch load windows required
! Full reload without touching source
Consistent CDC approach regardless of source
! Hard deletes in source generate GG events
Potentially reduced ETL runtimes
! Transforms and loads all local in BI Apps DW schema
! Near real-time ETL possible
! 24x7 deployments
Great enabler for cloud deployments

Installation Steps - Overview
1. Use RCU to create OBIEE repository tables
2. Install OBIEE 11.1.1.7 using Enterprise Install type
3. Run OBIA RCU to create DW schema, BIA schema,
ODI repository etc - separate RCU version just for BI Apps
4. Install OBIA 11.1.1.7.1 incl. ODI into OBIEE middleware home
5. Apply OBIA patches using patch utility
6. Use Configuration Utility to extend WLS domain
to include OBIA applications
7. Upgrade WLS to 10.3.6 - now, rather than after OBIEE install
8. Run post-install config scripts
9. Configure ODI Studio to use WLS security, Wallet + LPG plugin
Uses WLS LDAP for users
Configures ODI with required wallet file for credential access
Installs Load Plan Generator plug-in for ODI Studio
Use of ODI 11g as the Embedded ETL Engine
ODI, rather than Informatica, is used as the embedded ETL engine
Individual mappings are grouped into scenarios, the equivalent
of workflows in Informatica
Scenarios are then orchestrated into load plans, the equivalent
to execution plans in the DAC
ODI uses the target DW (Oracle initially) for the ETL tasks
! Actually ELT, for extract-load-transform
ODI agent controls the process - equivalent to the DAC server
Configuration metadata is held in the ODI repository, and
in repository tables used by CM and FSM
New Admin Utilities - Configuration Manager and Functional Setup Manager
Functionality of the DAC has been passed to three products
! ODI - for details on mappings, dependencies etc
! Configuration Manager - for system-wide configuration
! Functional Setup Manager - for app-specific configuration
Deep integration between the tools
Faster deployment and configuration
Load Plans - BI Apps 11.1.1.7.1s Equivalent to DAC Execution Plans
Load plans were introduced with ODI 11.1.1.5, and are a way of orchestrating sets of compiled ETL steps
Steps can be run in parallel or sequence
Exceptions can be defined, to execute steps
on ETL failure
Load plans can be restarted, skipping previously
completed steps
Can run individual compiled interfaces, or
scenarios (equivalent to INFA workflows)
So how does ODI generate the particular load plan
required for a set of arbitrarily-selected fact groups?
The Load Plan Generator
Load Plan Generator (LPG) is a JEE library installed into the WebLogic Domain
alongside OBIEE, CM etc
Automatically generate the optimal load plan for a set of fact groups
Called from the Configuration Manager web interface, or by developers
as a plug-in to ODI Studio
Uses fact > dimension FK relationships, and
then links back to staging tables and temp
tables, to create the required load plan
