Oracle Essbase 11.x – New Features with Ron Moore, London June 13, 2010

Review and explain the most important new features in Oracle Essbase 11.x.

Day-1 focuses on features of interest to developers. These new features open up a new range of design options. New features such as ASO as the target of a partition help improve performance. Text and Date Measures and Varying Attributes allow developers to build new types of structures that overcome modeling challenges that were previously difficult to address. For example, Varying Attributes help model dimensional relationships that change over time. Essbase Studio and XOLAP allow tighter integration between Essbase and relational databases. Cubes can be built much faster. Dimensions and hierarchies can be shared and you can drill through to the underlying relational data in new ways.

Day-2 focuses on features of interest to administrators such as new backup features, Life Cycle Management and installation improvements. These features can help improve data integrity and reduce the cost of supporting the Essbase environment.
