ESSBASE ANALYTICS LINK “THE SEAMLESS DATA CONNECTOR” BY ORACLE
Can we connect all the Dots, in Time and within Budgets? HFM and Essbase have co-existed for quite sometime; and the traditional Data integration tools put in place required development of Extraction, Transformation and Load data processes. However, Oracle Essbase Analytics Link has enabled developers to completely eliminate this effort, thereby reducing time and costs. EAL has also allowed the broad user community to review Management reporting information based on different EPM data-sources in near Real-time

DEMYSTIFYING ORACLE HYPERION UPGRADE PROJECTS
A Little Bit of Planning, a Lot of Success. With time, Hyperion upgrade projects become imminent. Companies tend to delay these projects, as they perceive that Hyperion System upgrades can turn out to be a headache. However, with proper planning and guidance, companies can not only stay up-to-date with technology and their competitors but also exploit the benefits of these upgrades.

FREE HYPERION UTILITIES
Yes, there is free lunch! Oracle throws in a bunch of utilities along with Hyperion – e.g. Log Viewer, Audit Extract, Copy Application, Extended Analytics Template Copy, Application Year Update, HFM Tool Box, Rules Managers and many others. Learn all about these free utilities. Or why not write your own? For example, with a little knowledge of VBA, and a little database, you can write a utility to go through entire EPM application, the rule files and scripts to search for a string.

SECURITY BEST PRACTICES FOR HYPERION
An EPM implementation involves a large number of components – ranging from Source System Data Adapters, Staging Area, ETL Tools, Databases, Flat Files, EPM suit and downstream systems. This paper attempts to expose various security holes and governance issues that lie in this landscape. It discusses best practices to avoid pitfalls whether you have a large team, or a small team with limited resources, and a methodology to conduct an IS security audit to ensure air tight EPM System.
