Hyperion, Performance, Siebel, Network, New Blog of Note, EBS


Hyperion/EPM

By way of the 'in 2 Hyperion' blog there is a new release out: Oracle EPM 11.1.2 Talleyrand Release (I was personally hoping for an equestrian release named 'Tallyho!', but my hopes have been crushed).

Performance

Alberto Dell'Era's blog only updates once a week or so, but the contents of those updates tend to really be gold. For instance his latest entry of today on: Xtrace: an Oracle session trace browser (introduction)

Siebel

Announcing Siebel CRM 8.2 for Public Sector

Oracle's new social services solution provides a comprehensive view of clients across programs and integrates with financial management systems to streamline the entire social services lifecycle.

RDBMS Network Tier

We often forget about the stream of faithful TCP/IP packets that make our use of RDBMS possible beyond the confines of the server room, and, unless someone sets something wrong in a config file or changes a firewall that causes numerous phones to ring in the deep of night, it doesn't get a lot of attention. But it's good to know abut TCP/IP, and as Gwen Shapira points out over at her I'm Just a Simple DBA blog, there are some useful things you can manipulate to make use of that unseen horde of packets: Fetch as Much as You Can

Indexing

It's been a while since we've linked to Richard Foote (the indexing guru), and in the interim he has put an excellent two part posting up on bitmap indexing, the cause of frequent confusion and more than a few IT urban legends:

Unique Bitmap Indexes Part I (Unnatural Selection)

Unique Bitmap Indexes Part II (You Can’t Do That)

New Blog of Note

Kevin Closson points to a new blog Gavin Soorma he noticed in his blog here.

Lots of nice stuff in it, including this item on GoldenGate, which is the most exciting product I've seen for HA and data transfer in recent memory: Oracle GoldenGate Veridata Installation and Configuration.

EBS

This week at the Oracle E-business Suite Technology blog:

MS Visual Studio 2008 Certified with Oracle EBS 12 on MS Windows Server (32-bit)

How Does AutoPatch Handle Shared E-Business Suite Products?
