This Oracle Database 12c: Analytic SQL for Data Warehousing training teaches you how to interpret the concept of a hierarchical query, create a tree-structured report, format hierarchical data and exclude branches from the tree structure. You'll also learn to use regular expressions and sub-expressions to search for, match, and replace strings. In this course, you will be introduced to Oracle Business Intelligence Cloud Service.
Learn To:
- Use SQL with aggregation operators, SQL for Analysis and Reporting functions.
- Group and aggregate data using the ROLLUP and CUBE operators, the GROUPING function, Composite Columns and the concatenated Groupings.
- Analyze and report data using Ranking functions, the LAG/LEAD Functions and the PIVOT and UNPIVOT clauses.
- Perform advanced pattern matching.
- Use regular expressions to search for, match and replace strings.
- Gain an understanding of the Oracle Business Intelligence Cloud Service.
Benefits to You
Enrolling in this course will help data warehouse builders and implementers, database administrators, system administrators and database application developers to better design, maintain and use data warehouses.

Good course, a lot of content to fill in such short time, but as a basic introduction was really interesting.
Overall ExitCertified is a great training provider and the remote learning is as effective as in person.
Course material is good, trainer is good. Suggest to review course coverage vis-a-vis the training timeline. For this one it seems coverage is more for 2 days.
I really admired his coaching skills and mannerisms and he gave many examples when I asked questions.
Very informative and helpful. Provided lots of extra resources and explained the process clearly.
