Oracle has announced new integrations between Oracle Business Intelligence (BI) Applications and the Oracle E-Business Suite R12 as well as enhanced support across Oracle's core BI foundation software, Hyperion Essbase and Oracle Business Intelligence Suite Enterprise Edition Plus (Oracle BI Suite EE Plus).
The integrations enable customers to drive additional value from their existing Oracle BI and Oracle Applications investments.
Making it easier for organisations to add BI functionality to their applications environments, Oracle BI Applications offer new support for the Oracle E-Business Suite R12 including pre-built content and adapters for Financials, Human Capital Management, Order Management & Fulfillment, and Supply Chain modules. Oracle BI Applications already support previous releases of the Oracle E-Business Suite.
Built on Oracle BI Suite EE Plus, Oracle BI Applications allow organisations to take advantage of the platform's hot-pluggable capabilities, and as a result, drive greater insight and leverage a wide range of data sources including the Oracle E-Business Suite, Oracle's PeopleSoft Enterprise, Oracle's Siebel CRM, and SAP applications.
Oracle BI Applications are comprehensive, standards-based BI solutions that enable customers to achieve fast time to value and gain greater insight through intuitive, role-based intelligence across an organisation.
Oracle's BI foundation integrates Hyperion Essbase and Oracle BI Suite EE Plus to provide customers with a unified, enterprise BI solution that delivers best-in-class query, reporting, analysis and modelling capabilities. Hyperion Essbase takes advantage of the hot-pluggable and advanced query capabilities of Oracle BI Suite EE Plus to access heterogeneous data sources for modelling "what if" business scenarios and forecasts.
In addition, Oracle BI Suite EE Plus now natively supports Hyperion Essbase as an optimised data source. With this integration, Hyperion Essbase customers can now leverage the Oracle BI Suite EE Plus enterprise information model to enable pervasive deployment and delivery of Hyperion Essbase information across the enterprise.
"The enhanced BI support for the Oracle E-Business Suite and Hyperion Essbase helps customers reduce integration costs and complexity while enabling greater capabilities by linking the products together," said Paul Rodwick, vice-president of Product Management, Oracle Business Intelligence.
"Oracle BI Suite EE Plus, Oracle BI Applications and Hyperion Essbase all help customers to generate greater value from their existing Oracle and non-Oracle ERP and CRM systems - via the hot-pluggable capabilities of Oracle BI software."
