Oracle 11g - OLAP Essentials

( Duration: 5 Days )

In Oracle 11g - OLAP Essentials training course, you will learn to progressively build an OLAP data model to support a wide range of business intelligence requirements. You learn to design OLAP cubes to serve as a summary management resource for existing SQL table queries and also learn to leverage the power of Oracle OLAP by adding rich analytic content to your data model.

You will learn to create sophisticated reports of OLAP data by using simple SQL queries. You also create and execute OLAP queries in SQL Developer, and Oracle Application Express (APEX). You will learn to implement cube security, including how to authorize access to cube data and methods for scoping user views of data. Finally, you will learn to design OLAP cubes for performance and scalability.

By attending Oracle 11g - OLAP Essentials workshop, delegates will learn to:

  • Describe OLAP concepts and terminology
  • Examine the role of Oracle OLAP within the Oracle BI / DW Platform
  • Design and create OLAP Cubes
  • Enable query rewrite to OLAP Cube MVs for summary management
  • Create OLAP calculated measures
  • Query stored and calculated OLAP data with simple SQL
  • Use ad hoc query and reporting tools against OLAP data
  • Implement cube security
  • Efficiently design cubes for performance and scalability

  • Basic SQL knowledge
  • A basic understanding of OLAP concepts

The Oracle 11g - OLAP Essentials class is ideal for:

  • Administrators
  • Analysts
  • Database Administrators
  • Developers
