This Oracle Essbase 11.1.2 Bootcamp teaches you the principal techniques and theories to design Essbase block storage databases. Block storage databases are deployed independently for budgeting, forecasting and planning, and as the underlying data storage and analytic engine for Hyperion Planning applications.

Learn To:

  • Create block storage databases.
  • Build rules files.
  • Analyze data with Smart View.
  • Create basic calculations.
  • Extend analysis capabilities.
  • Create a database outline, load data into the database and analyze data with Smart View.
  • Perform advanced analysis on the database by implementing varying attribute dimensions and typed measures.

Benefits to You

Learn how to improve your organization's performance through better, more informed decisions using Oracle Essbase, the market leading online analytical processing (OLAP) server for Enterprise Performance Management. Become more efficient at forecasting, variance analysis, root cause identification, scenario planning and what-if modeling to better align your organization's resources and improve business results.

Calculation Scripts

During this course, you'll also create calculation scripts (to calculate data for different scenarios). Design discussions and hands-on activities will help you practice the new skills you're learning.

*This course is also suitable for customers using Oracle Essbase 11.1.1.

Facilities were very clean, coffee was nice to have, snack selection was refreshing

Program was well done from initial invitation to actual class and follow-up

Great facility with good selection of drinks and small snacks. Equipment also worked flawlessly.

Excellent class overall! The Instructor and the course material were the best so far, and I have taken a few AWS classes. I highly recommend it- Architecting on AWS.

Great experience with using the online training with Webcam and Zoom. It is as if I was there in the same classroom but in the comfort of my own setting.
