What is BI? BI=Business + TechnologyForecasting
BI End user reporting
Big Data
Innovate 2016
Why do it? The value of OBIEE
• Build out report groups/subject areas and do modeling from different sources• Include Budget and Plan data into OBIEE Reporting• Integrate data from different sources and map them together• Master metadata modeling and data integration at an enterprise level• Real Time Data • Caching for slow data sets• Alerts Security• Cost is per server license• Advanced Analytics
• Integrated advanced analytics and large quantities of data into an easily reportable source OBIEE, e.g. Customer Segmentations, Fraud
• Unstructured Data• Analyze Structured and unstructured data together, e.g. Web Logs
• Use one overall main reporting source• Easily Create Alerts: Plan for a business that is proactive and not reactive• Can use Machine Learning algorithms that alert the business to issues all the way down to alerts in
OBIEE• Take advantage of OBIEE Alerts and let executives know when to review data—Budget Shortfall,
Inventory Shortage, etc..• Structure data so that it can be found based on clear content and structure

Why do it? The value of Tableau
• Easy to import data, create simple modeling, empower end-user• Easy to use/visualize• Easy to Tell Stories• Security• Advanced Analytics
• Integrated advanced analytics and large quantities of data into an easily reportable source OBIEE, e.g. Customer Segmentations, Fraud
• Unstructured Data• Analyze Structured and unstructured data together, e.g. Web Logs
• Cost is high per developer license

Comparison OBIEE vs TableauComparison OBIEE TableauEase of Development
Need Trained Developers
Easy to Empower End Users
Enterprise Reporting
Easy to control/setup/Deploy/cleanup
Harder to Manage Sprawling system
Story Telling Possible, but more difficult
Easy to use Story Pieces
Visualization Decent Great fast

caching, depends on size of data
Caching? On backend source

Data Tips--So much possible Data and it’s a mess!• Tableau vs OBIEE, don’t let your user reports and system generated reports get out of hand• Have data governance process and report governance process• CLEANUP old unused reports/systems• Keep Data structures simple• Tell Stories—create meaningful Dashboards and Reporting

OBIEE Modeling—steps
• Physical, Business Model and Mapping and Presentation Layers
Innovate 2016
OBIEE Data Source Integration Steps• Import new Physical Data souce 12C—Hadoop or Cloudera
Innovate 2016
OBIEE Big Data integration—steps• Make sure ODBC Drivers are setup to and from Source, need to
math RPD OBDC Name• Drag over to rest of RPD
Innovate 2016
OBIEE Big Data integration—Tips• Hive Access can be slow, be aware of how large a data set you
are using• Impala also has a data source that can be used. Latency for Impala
queries was better• Use caching/offloading strategy for large data sources• Can use Real-time Streaming to setup data sources and OBIEE to
access data. • Can use Hadoop as dumping ground for data that you don’t ETL/have
access to otherwise • Look forward to using additional Big Data Sources—Spark, etc as time
goes on!

Tableau vs OBIEE Reporting Tips—Putting it all together
• Keep simple reporting solutions as much as possible• Give power to end-users but don’t create unusable solutions• Identify and map out user common requests and group them together• Tell a story with your data• Show users clearly and easily where to get different pieces of data, the
more integration/combing/less thinking users have to do the happier they will be!
