Extended Connectivity Over 7.9.x Application Adapters for SAP ERP and SAP BW Application Adapters for Endeca, Hadoop Oracle OLAP Hyperion Planning, Financial Management and Essbase Real-Time CDC with GoldenGate Oracle DB multi-table insert Optimizations for IBM DB2, Microsoft SQL Server, Teradata, Netezza Copyright 2014. Apps Associates LLC. 11

Data Loading The Key to Improved Performance and Reduced Costs E-LT provides flexible architecture for optimized performance Benefits Leverage set-based transformations Improved performance for loading, no network hop Takes advantage of existing hardware Copyright 2014. Apps Associates LLC. 15

ETL Architecture Informatica Is an ETL tool (Extract, Transform, Load) Has dedicated ETL engine Transformation is the core part of ETL Integration service handles the transformation part, resulting in better performance File based transformation operations Copyright 2014. Apps Associates LLC. 16

ETL Architecture ODI Is an ELT tool (Extract, Load, Transform) Does not have dedicated ETL engine Relies on database capabilities of the source / target database i.e. first loads the data in some staging tables in the target database and later inserts / updates the data into the final target tables based on the data transformation has to perform Performance is primarily based on Source and Target Tables and Database Copyright 2014. Apps Associates LLC. 17

ETL Architecture In-database E-L-T Transformation vs. E-T-L. Best in class performance, scalability, availability Lightweight deployment for lower TCO Faster time-to-value through declarative design Heterogeneous, open and standards-based Set based transformation Copyright 2014. Apps Associates LLC. 18

GUI 7.9.6.4 11.1.1.7.1 Connecting to the ETL Repository We need to have client tool installed in the machine to access repository ETL Repositories It has only one repository, so we have one set of connection entries Cost ODI is cost effective compared to Informatica Connecting to the ETL Repository No separate Client tools is involved. We can connect to repositories using ODI console or by web based URL ETL Repositories We have two Repositories. Master and Work Repositories. So we need two Independent connection entries Copyright 2014. Apps Associates LLC. 21

GUI Hardware Informatica tool utilize its own engine to implement the ETL process. So investment in additional hardware to implement the tool s ETL engine. Hardware Utilizes existing hardware. ODI can run on the same hardware as the database engine underpinning the data warehouse, using the existing hardware deployed. Copyright 2014. Apps Associates LLC. 22

Implementation Domain Files We need to configure manually Time It takes more time for configurations ETL Customization In order to load data to custom column we need to edit the Mapping ETL Troubleshooting Features like backtracking, dependencies and debugger Domain Files No need to configure Domain files. It is automatically configured by using Configuration Manager. Time It takes less time for configurations ETL Customization In order to load data to custom column we need to edit the interface ETL Troubleshooting Features like Simulation to debug Copyright 2014. Apps Associates LLC. 23

Declarative Design Improved Developer Productivity and Lower Maintenance Costs Informatica ETL Design Developer must define every step of Complex ETL Flow Logic And significant development and maintenance efforts ODI Declarative Design Simplifies the number of steps Automatically generates the Data Flow whatever the sources and target DB Benefits Reduces the learning curve Shorter implementation times Streamline access to non-it pros Copyright 2014. Apps Associates LLC. 24

Tools for Accelerating Deployment BI Applications 7.9.6.4 DAC Another tool to install BI Applications 11.1.1.7.1 Configuration Manager Administrative UI to manage system configuration for BI Applications Functional Setup Manager Administrative UI to track and manage implementation projects and functional setup steps Copyright 2014. Apps Associates LLC. 26

BI Applications Configuration Manager A centralized (thin client/web application) console to Simplify configuration process Minimize manual setups and configurations Generate list of necessary configurations based on BI Application being configured and user selections Provide check lists and validations of all necessary tasks Reduce dependency on documentation Configuration migration capabilities Copyright 2014. Apps Associates LLC. 27

Functional Setup Manager Domains ETL execution to extract configuration data from source Ability to track configuration progress for project management Enable / disable a functional area from a module Ability to create load plans with extract only Define, generate, execute and monitor load plan Scheduling for load plan for data refresh Copyright 2014. Apps Associates LLC. 29

Migration Path No formal migration path from 7.9.x to 11g Ideal for implementations with minimal customizations Upon implementation of BI Apps 11g, manually migrate the customizations on a case by case basis as needed Copyright 2014. Apps Associates LLC. 31

Enhanced ETL Architecture Using GoldenGate Optional Feature for 11g Challenge: Customers with geographically distributed source systems are increasingly being challenged by rapidly expanding data sizes and shorter ETL windows Solution: Optimize ETL load and reduce impact on OLTP system leveraging the strengths of GoldenGate Completely prepackaged solution Creation of Source Dependent Data Store (SDS) Ability to complete all extraction tasks while in source system availability window Copyright 2014. Apps Associates LLC. 32

Real-Time Data Refresh Using GoldenGate Built in integration with GoldenGate No need for batch load windows ODS/SDS near real time refresh from distributed source databases Ability to add/change indexes and views on SDS Source for real time reporting needs Recommended for customers with pressing ETL times Suitable for 24 x 7 deployments Copyright 2014. Apps Associates LLC. 33

Why ODI BI Apps? Faster Simpler Fastest E-LT Bulk/Batch Performance Faster Real Time integration (sub-second) with CDC, Replication, and SOA Faster Project Setup, Design and Delivery Simpler Setup, Configuration, Management, and Monitoring Simpler way to do Mapping using Declarative SQL Interfaces Simpler Deployment with Fewer Hardware Devices Simpler extensibility with Knowledge Module code templates Copyright 2014. Apps Associates LLC. 35

Why ODI BI Apps? Saves Money (Lower TCO, Higher ROI) Less Hardware & Energy Costs with E-L-T Architecture Less Time spent on Unnecessary ETL Mappings, Scripting, and Training Less Integration Overhead Integrating with Applications, SOA, and Management Copyright 2014. Apps Associates LLC. 36
