BI Staffing and Organization

Hi all,
    What do typical BW/BI teams look like?  Is there a structure?  How do most companies staff up.  Additionally, is there a rule of thumb about staff size and number of daily loads, or active infoproviders?
    Thanks.
Dave

that depends on various factors:
- type & size of company
- type & size of data
- need for BI
- urgency to get data out of BI
- way of working in the company
I've been on projects all by myself and I've been part of large teams, and anything in between... I personally would never "link" staff size with number of loads or InfoProviders as I don't see any relevance there.

  • How do I import an old iphoto library from an external hard disk while keeping my editing and organization in tact?

    I am running iPhoto '08 on a MacBook Pro 2.2 GHz Intel C2D (MacBook Pro 3,1). I backed up my hard drive contents onto an external hard drive, then formatted my computer and installed Mountain Lion. I then re-installed iPhoto '08 and ran all the updates. Now, I would like to import my old library from the external disk onto my computer without losing my editing and organization; however, when I select "import to library" from iPhoto, the old iPhoto library is not a selectable option.
    I know how to "show package contents" and import directly from the Original and Modified folders, but I don't want to lose my organization. Can I simply drag the content of those folders into my new Original and Modified folders? Will iPhoto read that correctly?
    I tried to open the old library from the external disk, thinking to export them all to a folder and import from there, but that just opened my new library and none of the old photos were imported or available.
    I'm running out of ideas and would appreciate any help you guys can give. Thanks!!

    You don't import it.
    Just drag the iphoto Library from the external to the Pictures Folder.
    Then open it:
    Hold down the option (or alt) key key and launch iPhoto. From the resulting menu select 'Choose Library'
    Never import one Library to another. Every version and thumbnail is imported like a distinct photo, you lose all your Albums, Keywords etc., the link between Original and Previews is destroyed, the non-destructive editing feature is ruined and so on. In summary: it's mess.

  • How to determine the Country and Organization from IP

    Hi,
    I would like to determine the Country and Organization from a given IP. I have to write a JSP, which when given the IP address gives the country and the organization to which the IP belongs. The organization may be the ISP, or a MNC or any other corporate/government body, or it may be of an individual. I have to do it progamitically from inside a JSP?
    Any suggestions anybody
    Thanks in Advance for your reply

    even when tracking IP's, if it is static you can narrow it down pretty far - if it's dynamic, you can only narrow it down to a specific part of the country.

  • Moving Photoshop Elements and Organizer to a new PC (after HDD failure)

    Hi all,
    My PC died recently, and suddenly. Thankfully I had a drive backing everything up so I have a complete mirror of my harddrive on an external drive. I have now bought a new PC and have installed PSE9 (with PE9 and Organizer) onto it.
    I would like to be able to rebuild all my catalogs and albums, and have all my keywords etc, in my new installation, using the files I have in my back-up drive. There are thousands of photos, going back about 10 years, and it took about three solid weeks to tag them all and fix their dates etc.  Can someone please tell me which files I need to copy over into my new installation, and where they should go? The drive names on my new machine will probably be different to the ones I used on my old machine, but beneath that all files are in the same folder structure as they were on my old (now dead) machine. The dead machine ran Vista, and I'm now on Win7.
    Please let me know if there's any further information I need to provide.
    Thanks in advance.

    Where I am not clear is why a full drive backup (that includes a copy of the catalog, using a 3rd party drive backup tool) led to a situation where the catalog info could not be completely restored to a new PC.
    Let's have a look at the result of the complete restoration of a drive.
    - Case one : There has been a mirror copy on the second drive
    - case two : you have a clone of your disk (I supose it's uptodate at the time of crash...)
    In both cases:
    The media files are all identical.
    The catalogs are identical.
    But... there is a difference.
    A cloning utility is also able to restore the original drive serial number used by Windows to recognize the different drives.
    In the mirrored drive, the serial number is different from the original one.
    the catalog contains for each media file:
    - the full path : root folder/subfolder 1/sub-subfolder... file name with extension.
    - the identification of the drive (serial number plus drive letter)
    When the Organizer reads the data in the catalog and wants to access a file via the operating system, it will find all files in the clone, and all files in the the mirrored version will be missing. Then you need to reconnect as mentionned in a previous post. And that's a lot of painful work
    So, assuming your mirrored version is strictly ok, the catalog is fooled by the change of drive serial number. You can either have Windows to assign the old serial number or use an sqlite management software to edit that information in the database : catalog.psexxdb.
    What I don't know is if the background processes in charge of the accessory jobs of the Organizer (watched folders, face recognition, autoanalysis...) will be correctly restored in a crash situation. So you might lose some information or have to wait for the Organizer to rebuild some of the missing information.
    My suggestion to backup also the catalog was to avoid a situation where the user has a syncing software in charge of the media folders only. You are right that the catalog was also backed up in the case of the original poster.

  • PSE 8.0 Will Not Open (Including Editor and Organizer)

    I have been using PSE 8.0 for three or four years now, and I have never experienced any problems with it. Today, after installed a Wacom Intuos Creative Pen Tablet, my PSE 8.0 would not open-- nor would Editor and Organizer. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling the program, renaming certain files (as read in other answers), creating shortcuts to bypass the Welcome Screen (which also will not appear), among other solutions that I read about for similar problems. Whenever I attempt to open Organizer, a crash report appears, stating that the program has quit unexpectedly--that's all it says. If I try to open PSE 8 or Editor, the circle next to my cursor appears for a moment, but soon it disappears without a single pop-up or explanation as to why the program won't open. Since I cannot access the Welcome Screen, I cannot locate the Preference file to change the name/delete it.  If it matters, I use Windows 7.
    Any and all help is appreciated. I'm going a bit insane without my lovely Photoshop to doodle in. ;n;
    Thank you,
    ~ Mongoose

    EDIT: I found the Preferences within the PSE folder, and I renamed it; afterwards, I tried to open PSE again. It reset the Preferences, yet it is still telling me that PSE has unexpectedly quit. /EDIT
    I went into the PSE folder and attempted the "three finger salute" while clicking on Organizer, but all it brought up were the Organizer Properties.
    Also, within the past hour, PSE has been randomly popping multiple times up to inform me that it unexpectedly quit, yet I have not tried to open it recently. I am not sure if that is important or not.

    Huge volume of records are routing to the remote user other than his position and organization records. Synchronization and DB initialization taking more time around 36 hours.
    Actual accounts & contacts need to be route around 2000 & 3000 but we have observed lakhs of records routing into local DB.
    We have verified all the Assignment Rules, Views.
    We ran docking object visibility rules and we have observed that some other accounts are routing due to Organization rule passing. (these records are not supposed to route).

    let me know what would be the reason that 1st million takes only 15 minuts and the time goes on increasing gradually with the increase of dataYes that's a little strange. I only can guess:
    1. You are in archivelog mode and the Archiver is not able to archive the redo logs fast enough
    2. You don't use Direct Load and DBWR ist not able to write the direty block to disk fast enough. You could create more DBWR processes in that case.
    3. Make a snapshot of v$system_event:
    create table begin as select * from v$system_event;After the import run
    create table end as select * from v$system_event;Now compare the values:
    select * from begin order by TIME_WAITED_MICRO descwith the values given you by
    select * from end order by TIME_WAITED_MICRO descSo you can look where your DB spent so much time waiting for something.
    Alternativly, you could start a 10046 trace on the loading session and use tkprof.

  • Difference Location and Organization in Purchase Requisition

    What is the difference between 'location and organization' in Purchase Requisition ? [http://www.uppicweb.com/x/i/ij/2dpic.jpg] you can see picture in the link

    The organization is the inventory organization in your enterprise to which you want the requested items delivered. The location is the delivery location for the requested items, usually defaulted from the requester's employee record. A delivery location is mandatory for approval of the req.
    These correspond to the hr_all_organization_units and hr_locations tables in your db.

  • Parametric role and organization

    Hi,
    I´ve read BPM Studio helps and some threads in this forum and I still can't figure out this dynamic role thing.
    As I understand a participant can not normally particapate to process instance which have been started by a participant from different organisational Unit even if role is valid.
    Is it possible to change in which organization Unit's Role is doing the task, I am very sceptic that parametric role will solve this ?
    Is there some where a good presentation of this dynamic role and organization thing ?
    thanks

    You get it perfectly.
    1.- Yes it is different Studio and Enterprise in this thing, in Studio the deployment is equivalent to "the root OU" in Enterprise.
    2.- In Studio you do not manage the OUs.
    3.- In enterprise the OUs are managed in the deployment.
    Things that deals to the directory are usually in the Enterprise side, participants are not exported from studio and the rest of things (OUs, roles, groups...) usually are mapped when you publish. And of course when you publish in Enterprise yo have more options that when you deploy in Studio (for example deploy to specific OUs, you can select the engine qhere you deploy (in studio you only have one engine), and so on...
    Hope it helps

  • Modelling Individuals and Organizations

    I'm developing an application where a user can either act as an individual, or as a member of an organization, and I'm having some trouble modelling this so support the various systems.
    To explain the rules, users log in and peform actions, but these actions may be in their own name, or performed on behalf of their organization. An individual can only peform the former, while a member of an organization can act on their own behalf or on behalf of their organization. A user can only be a member of a single organization.
    And to clarify, an organization is a different beast than an individual. Primarily because it isn't a different type of individual, but instead a collection of individuals that operates as an independent identity in the system. It also supports a range of member-management functionality (payroll, for example) because of that. While it doesn't do anything itself, since it's members perform actions for it, it is the organization that is considered to have performed the action when the dust settles.
    So now much of the objects within the system can have a parent that is either an individual or an organization, and several UI screens apply to both scenarios equally, with very minor differences (sometimes with no difference at all).
    This leads to a host of implementation details. Let's say both individuals and organizations can buy widgets as one of many actions they both share. Now we must support the concept of widgets belonging to either an individual or an organization. Business logic must be able to handle both scenarios, ideally with minimal duplication, and persistence has to take into account that the parent relationship of widgets isn't bound to a single type, but one of two (individuals or orgs). Most of the systems in the application must deal with this issue.
    I know this is a very abstract question, but I'm at an abstract phase of the design. Has anyone dealt with this type of model, and what techniques have been used to architect it?
    Thanks to everyone in advance!

    I think you'll need some others. There's a
    many-to-many relationship between
    Individuals and Organizations. True enough. I already have an object representing the relationship and attributes related to it (date, role, etc).
    Can be complex. I've seen it done badly.
    I don't think Party is necessarily trivial, even
    if the idea is simple.Certainly isn't trivial. All sorts of new issues arrise. For example, with the proposed table layout, Parties, Individuals, and Organizations all have different ID's, and that needs to be reconciled.
    Situations arise where your working with a system that references Parties, but you want to access more detailed information about the Person or Organization, perhaps for display purposes. Now you have to figure out how to get the derived type with just a Party ID. Doable, but I'd prefer to avoid a blind search through the Person and Organization tables.
    What if the Party table referenced the sub-type? Perhaps a column that maps to an enum in code such as PartyType.Person and PartyType.Organization. Mappers like Hibernate could use this information to automatically create an object of the derived type when you load a Party.
    Anyone know of any open-source Java or .NET projects that solve these problems? I'd love to see code.

    Somehow that does not look like Premiere Elements 11 or 12. What version of Premiere Elements are you using and on what computer operating system is it running?
    If you are running Premiere Elements 10 and your computer uses a NVIDIA GeForce video card, then please read the Announcement at the top of this forum. If you are a Premiere Elements 10 NVIDIA users, then it is mostly likely that you will need to roll back the NVIDIA card version to continue to use your Premiere Elements 10.

    Announcement: Premiere Elements 10 NVIDIA Video Card Driver Roll Back
    Hide Details
    If you are a Premiere Elements 10 user whose Windows computer uses a NVIDIA GeForce video card and you are experiencing Premiere Elements 10 display and/or unexplained program behavior, then your first line of troubleshooting needs to be rolling back the video card driver version instead of assuring that it is up to date.
    Since October 2013 to the present, there have been a growing number of reports about display and unexplained workflow glitches specific to the Premiere Elements 10 user whose Windows computer has a NVIDIA GeForce video card. If this applies to you, then the “user to user” remedy is to roll back the NVIDIA GeForce video card driver as far as is necessary to get rid of the problems. The typical driver roll back has gone back as far as March – July 2013 in order to get a working Premiere Elements 10. Neither NVIDIA nor Adobe has taken any corrective action in this regard to date, and none is expected moving forward.
    Since October 2013, the following thread has tried to keep up with the Premiere Elements 10 NVIDIA reports
