Oracle BI 11g R1: Introduction to System Administration (Self-Study Course)

Overview

In this course you learn how to use the following tools to manage Oracle Business Intelligence (BI):

  • Fusion Middleware (FMW) Control to monitor manage, and configure Oracle BI system components
  • Oracle WebLogic Server (WLS) Administration Console to monitor and manage Oracle BI JEE Java components
  • Oracle Process Manager and Notification Server (OPMN) Tool to manage Oracle BI system components
  • Oracle BI Administration Tool to perform administrative tasks.

This course provides tutorials and step-by-step demonstrations for Oracle BI system administration. The course begins with an overview of Oracle BI system administration tasks, the Oracle BI system logical architecture, and the tools used to complete system administration tasks. As the course progresses, you learn how to centrally manage Oracle BI system tasks and components using Fusion Middleware Control and the Oracle WebLogic Server Administration Console. You learn how to stop and start Oracle BI components, scale an Oracle BI deployment, deploy Oracle BI for high availability, manage performance tuning and query caching, diagnose and resolve system issues, enable usage tracking, and set up and manage Oracle BI security.

Learn To:
  • Manage performance tuning and query caching to improve Oracle BI query performance
  • Use Fusion Middleware Control to diagnose and resolve issues in Oracle BI
  • Set up, configure, and manage Oracle BI security
  • Set up a clustered environment to deploy Oracle BI for high availability
  • Use Oracle BI system administration tools to monitor, manage, and configure Oracle BI system components
  • Use vertical and horizontal scaling to manage the capacity of an Oracle BI deployment
