Preface

Summary


In this chapter, we learned how to install the OBIEE software in the Fusion Middleware home. We also learned how to use the Repository Creation Utility (RCU) to install the schema in a database that OBIEE uses; this is called the metadata schema.

There are other options. The first task we undertook, when the software was installed, was to configure a new OBIEE Domain.

Finally, we learned where the installation files are and how to create useful Windows shortcuts.

As you can see from the steps in this chapter, it is very simple to run the installation software supplied by Oracle to create the Oracle Business Intelligence system.

In the next chapter, we will review the Oracle BI reporting system and consider what the features are.
