Vlamis Software Solutions, an Oracle Parner, along with NAVTEQ, are hosting a BIWA SIG (that would be the Business Intelligence, Warehousing and Analytics Special Interest Group) web seminar - BIWA SIG TechCast - Sept 8 - Noon Eastern (US) - Information Visualization Using Maps in Oracle Business Intelligence 11g. Use this link to register for the seminar.
There have been some changes happening on the Oracle Technology Network. As a result, the link to the Oracle BI EE 11g Certification Matrix that I had posted in an earlier post no longer works.
Use this link instead: System Requirements and Supported Platforms for Oracle Fusion Middleware 11gR1 (XLS format)
Bookmark this page for reference in either case: Oracle Fusion Middleware Supported System
Now that I have installed Oracle BI EE 11g, what I like to do is to create a another user with administrative privileges that I then use for my work. In this case, to satisfy a narcissistic urge I use my name as the user name - "abhinav".
To do that, I first need to login to the Administration Console of Oracle BI EE. which on my computer's installation is http://aagarwa-lap.idc.oracle.com:7001
To install Oracle BI EE 11g, after you have downloaded the install files, and unzipped them, you need to go to "Disk 1", and run the "setup.exe" file (on Windows; on Linux it would be the "runInstaller" file)
This launches the Oracle Universal Installer (OUI for short). Don't get confused by the "Oracle Fusion Middleware 11g" logo at the top, since Oracle BI EE is part of the Fusion Middleware
