Predefined, Integrated Dimensional Data Warehouse
•Integrated, conformed dimensional data warehouse•Allows modular deployment•Lowest grain of information•Prebuilt aggregates •Deployable on Oracle, MS SQL,
IBM DB/2 and Teradata•History tracking•Indexing

The Oracle BI Applications ETL Process
•Oracle BI Applications comes with a set of pre-defined ETL routines‣Currently written using Informatica, in future also provided via Oracle DI
•Extracts data from Oracle EBS, Peoplesoft, Siebel, SAP•Universal Adapter available for non-supported sources•Controlled and orchestrated using the Oracle Data Warehouse Administration Console
T : +44 (0) 8446 697 995 E : enquiries@rittmanmead.com W: www.rittmanmead.com
Oracle Data Warehouse Administration Console
•Control panel for running the OBAW load process•ETL packaged into Execution Plans•Tight integration with Informatica•Run jobs, monitor progress•The added value on top of
the OBAW and INFA mappings

Informatica PowerCenter 8.1.1
•Informatica PowerCenter 8.1.1 is a complete ETL toolkit‣Very much like Oracle Warehouse Builder, but applies to all sources and targets‣Uses an ETL “hub” to
process and distribute data•Server supported on Windows,
Unix, Linux•Client is Windows-only•Five Key Informatica Client Tools‣Informatica Designer‣Informatica Workflow Manager‣Informatica Repository Manager‣Informatica Workflow Monitor

Customizing the Oracle Business Analytics Warehouse
•Although the OBAW comes with many star schemas and many ETL routines, you will probably wish to extend and customize it to meet your neds‣Include flex-field data‣Adding data from a custom source‣Adding new facts, dimensions, hierarchies
•Data can come from many sources‣Sources with adapters and existing load routines you can customize‣Sources with adapters but no load routines (source unsupported for subject area)‣Unsupported sources (using the Universal Adapter)
T : +44 (0) 8446 697 995 E : enquiries@rittmanmead.com W: www.rittmanmead.com
Customization Types
•OBAW customizations can be divided in to three categories‣Category 1 are where you add an additional column to an existing star schema‣Category 2 are where you add a new fact or dimension table‣Category 3 are where you add
additional rows to an existingfact or dimension, from anunsupported source

Customizing and Creating New OBAW ETL Routines
•Whichever type of customization you perform,you will be working with two mappings per target fact or dimension‣An SDE (Source-Dependent Extract) map
to extract data from the source system‣An SIL (Source-Independent Layer) map
to load data into the fact or dimension•Category 1 mappings involve customizing
existing SDE and SIL mappings•Category 2 customizations involve creating
new SDE and SIL mappings from scratch

A Typical Informatica ETL Mapping
•Data extracted from sources using “Mapplets”, encapsulated business logic•Data transformed using custom and pre-defined transformations•Standard keys, tags added to data as it passes through ETL process•Standard processes for adding surrogate keys, performing currency conversions etc•Mapping is then run and executed from the DAC Console and repository
