We successfully helped one of our customers move from Oracle Business Intelligence to OAS on Oracle Server X8-8 machine.

The Challenge

Recently one of our government health clients needed to upgrade to the latest Oracle hardware because of increased ongoing support costs to maintain hardware after its end of support.

Meeting the challenge

The following high level migration steps were undertaken to carry out the work:

1. Installed and configured Oracle Database 19c
2. Installed and configured Oracle Fusion Middleware infrastructure 12c
3. Installed and configured Oracle Analytics Server 5.x
4. Generated the Export Bundle file from OBIEE 11g
5. Imported Export Bundle file into Oracle Analytics Server
6. Post review and configuration completed

The Benefits

The client now has the ability to enjoy the benefits OAS enables existing OBIEE customers to modernize their analytics while having the flexibility to move to the cloud at their own pace.
