Megabyte together with Oracle organized the Oracle Enterprise Performance Management Summit, which was held on Wednesday 23rd March 2011 at Le Méridien, St. Julians, in which the attendees had the opportunity to gain insight on the Oracle Business Intelligence Solutions. The event was inaugurated by Rainer van Beckum, CEO, Megabyte followed by Yiannis Raptis representing Oracle, who explained how one may improve business insight and agility with Oracle BI&EPM Solutions. The newly released Oracle Business Intelligence 11g was presented. Encompassing thousands of new features and enhancements, the latest release offers three key areas of innovations.
Margarita Varvitsioti, also representing Oracle, provided insight into Hyperion Planning which is an application that sits on top of the Essbase OLAP server and is used by organizations to perform planning and budgeting. Using this tool, companies can work with standard dimensions such as period, year, scenario, entity and accounts to which they can add other custom dimensions such as product and geography, with an Essbase cube being built using these into which budgeting and planning data can be added for a robust view of the company’s budget.
