Kindly provide me any link, reference , document, white paper to look at the idea that what is the Business and technology intelligence in Oracle Database..
We have see this in this perspective that " How oracle is making money from his database technology!
Any advice would be wonderful

First of all many thanks for such quick answer...
I make clear my question here :
Suppose i want to see the success of e-bay online business.Business and technology intelligence means " How you can make money from Technology " ?
My question about Oracle products or database is same that " How Oracle is making money from its Database Technology " consistently. This is called in
Technology and innovation managment " Business and Intelligence ".
Is it clear now ? Now i want to have literature about that How Oracle Corporation using technology to make make money business ...
Kindly reply me and thanks in advance

  • About the installation of  "semantic web technology" on Oracle database 11g

    Dear Oracle Semantic Technology Users:
    Recently I am evaluating the Semantic Web technology supported by oracle database 11g, but when I try to install this technology according to the document "Semantic Technologies Developer's Guide" under "Product Documentation: Oracle® Spatial Resource Description Framework (RDF) 11g Release 1 (11.1) Manual," I logged in by "sys as sysdba", and executed the script $ORACLE_HOME/md/admin/catsem11i.sql, the SQL Plus console shows no error and installed successfully, but when I check it on SQL Developer interface, I can't find the schema, views and tables related to the semantic web functions which should be created.
    Then I tried to execute the same sql script (catsem11i.sql) by SQL developer, it came out a window and ask me the value of COMP_FILE, and the execution is interrupted.
    So I would like to ask that do you have any idea, what kind of problems or mistake could it happen? I installed Oracle 11g on windows XP platform with the enterprise edition default installation.
    Thanks for your help in advance :)

    Hi,
    Actually, you are pretty close :) You need to invoke sem_apis.create_sem_network('<YOUR_TABLESPACE_NAME>');
    After that, please check the following tutorial for a good end-to-end example.

    I have applied patch to upgrade Oracle E-business suite(11.5.10) database from 9.2.0.5 to 9.2.0.8. but after applying patch also it showing 9.2.0.5. please help me.

    Thanks Hussain for ur reply
    server OS is windows server 2003 std. i have performed following steps
    1.     First I installed 11.5.10.2 Technology Stack Validation Patch (Revision 1 July, 2005) on both application (D:\Oracle\visappl) and database (D:\oracle\Visdb\9.2.0) home. (p4318672_11i_GENERIC.zip)
    2.     Then I review the html log file generated for both the home. Html file generated for oracle home with ALL PASS status. But html file for DBMS oracle home has return FAIL status. I review the reason in txkVal11510MP_DB.html. it gives me following reason to fail
    “11.5.10.2 requires that your Oracle 9iR2 database version to be 9.2.0.6.0 or higher on Windows platform. Please refer to Oracle MetaLink Note 216550.1 "Oracle Applications Release 11i with Oracle 9i Release 2 (9.2.0)" to upgrade to the latest certified version of Oracle 9iR2. After upgrading to 9.2.0.6, you must apply 9.2.0.6 patch 5 ( 4287598 ) before upgrading to 11.5.10.2. “
    3.     I went through the Metalink Note 216550.1. I refer Section 2 of it. I applied patch 5035661. when I applied this patch , output of this patch mentioned that OUI 2.2 is already installed on both the Home.
    4.     Then I applied 9.2.0.6 patch 5 (4287598). Prior to this I applied patch 2617419 because patch 4287598 require OPatch 1.0.0.0.52.
    5.     I performed patch 4287598 post installation task also. I didn’t apply windows patch 6, because my database was not showing 9.2.0.8 as required by windows patch 6.
    6.     so this is the complete task list I have done to upgrade database from 9.2.0.5 to 9.2.0.8

    Is this possible or does the BI SE require an enterprise edition database?
    Please help

    Hi,
    When you installed the BI SE, do you see the discoverer Plus and discoverer Viewer?
    I installed the SE, but it did not install the Plus and Viewer.

  • Monitoring changes in Oracle Database with Business Objects

    Hi: I need to know if there is a Business Objects tool that allows me to be constantly checking one Oracle database to see if there are changes. The customer is not permitted to access the database, only has enabled a stored procedure that returns a string value if there are changes or not. That string (XML) is performed by DataServices later with BO to generate something. I would like to know if there is any product of BO (Data Integrator, etc ...) that allows me to take an active process of consultation on the Stored Procedure and that the consultation is launched every 10-15 seconds.
    Thanks in advance

  • Can't ssh to Oracle Database (E-business SUite 11.5.10.2)

    Hi,
    Time to time I've noticing server froze.You should find more details about this behavior in the server logs -- Your System Administrator should help here!
    Can't ssh to Oracle Database (E-business Suite).This is an expected behavior if the server hangs. Can you find any errors in the database log file? Do you have sufficient space at the OS level? I believe this is not a ssh issue as it is more likely a Hardware/OS issue.

  • Connection pooling and auditing on an oracle database

    Integration of a weblogic application with an oracle backend,
    Connection pooling, and auditing ,2 conflicting requirements ?
    Problem statement :
    We are in the process of maintaining a legacy client server application where
    the client is
    written in PowerBuilder and the backend is using an Oracle database.
    Almost all business logic is implemented in stored procedures on the database.
    When working in client/server mode ,1 PowerBuilder User has a one-to-one relation
    with
    a connection(session) on the oracle database.
    It is a requirement that the database administrator must see the real user connected
    to the database
    and NOT some kind of superuser, therefore in the PowerBuilder app each user connects
    to the database
    with his own username.(Each user is configured on the database via a seperate
    powerbuilder security app).
    For the PowerBuilder app all is fine and this app can maintain conversional state(setting
    and
    reading of global variables in oracle packages).
    The management is pushing for web-based application where we will be using bea
    weblogic appserver(J2EE based).
    We have build an business app which is web-based and accessing the same oracle
    backend app as
    the PowerBuilder app is doing.
    The first version of this web-based app is using a custom build connector(based
    on JCA standard and
    derived from a template provided by the weblogic integration installation).
    This custom build connector is essentially a combination of a custom realm in
    weblogic terms
    and a degraded connection pool , where each web session(browser) has a one-to-one
    relation
    with the back end database.
    The reason that this custom connector is combining the security functionality
    and the pooling
    functionality , is because each user must be authenticated against the oracle
    database(security requirement)
    and NOT against a LDAP server, and we are using a statefull backend(oracle packages)
    which would make it
    difficult to reuse connections.
    A problem that surfaced while doing heavy loadtesting with the custom connector,
    is that sometimes connections are closed and new ones made in the midst of a transaction.
    If you imagine a scenario where a session bean creates a business entity ,and
    the session bean
    calls 1 entity bean for the header and 1 entity bean for the detail, then the
    header and detail
    must be created in the same transaction AND with the same connection(there is
    a parent-child relationship
    between header and detail enforced on the back end database via Primary and Foreing
    Keys).
    We have not yet found why weblogic is closing the connection!
    A second problem that we are experincing with the custom connector, is the use
    of CMP(container managed persistence)
    within entity beans.
    The J2EE developers state that the use of CMP decreases the develoment time and
    thus also maintenance costs.
    We have not yet found a way to integrate a custom connector with the CMP persistence
    scheme !
    In order to solve our loadtesting and CMP persistence problems i was asked to
    come up with a solution
    which should not use a custom connector,but use standard connection pools from
    weblogic.
    To resolve the authentication problem on weblogic i could make a custom realm
    which connects to the
    backend database with the username and password, and if the connection is ok ,
    i could consider this
    user as authenticated in weblogic.
    That still leaves me with the problem of auditing and pooling.
    If i were to use a standard connection pool,then all transaction made in the oracle
    database
    would be done by a pool user or super user, a solution which will be rejected
    by our local security officer,
    because you can not see which real user made a transaction in the database.
    I could still use the connection pool and in the application , advise the application
    developers
    to set an oracle package variable with the real user, then on arrival of the request
    in the database,
    the logic could use this package variable to set the transaction user.
    There are still problems with this approach :
    - The administrator of the database can still not see who is connected , he will
    only see the superuser connection.
    - This scheme can not be used when you want to use CMP persistence , since it
    is weblogic who will generate the code
    to access the database.
    I thought i had a solution when oracle provided us with a connection pool known
    as OracleOCIConnectionPool
    where there is a connection made by a superuser, but where sessions are multiplexed
    over this physical pipe with the real user.
    I can not seem to properly integrate this OCI connectionpool into weblogic.
    When using this pool , and we are coming into a bean (session or entity bean)
    weblogic is wrapping
    this pool with it's own internal Datasource and giving me back a connection of
    the superuser, but not one for the real user,
    thus setting me with my back to the wall again.
    I would appreciate if anyone had experienced the same problem to share a possible
    solution with us
    in order to satisfy all requirements(security,auditing,CMP).
    Many Thanks

    Hi Blyau,
    As Joe has already provided some technical advice,
    I'll try to say something on engineering process level.
    While migrating an application from one technology to
    other, like client-server to n-tier in you case, customers and
    stakeholders want to push into the new system as many old
    requirements as possible. This approach is AKA "we must
    have ALL of the features of the old system". Mostly it happens
    because they don't know what they want. Ad little understanding
    of abilities of the new technology, and you will get a requirement
    like the one you have in you hands.
    I think "DBA must see real user" is one of those. For this
    type of requirements it can make sense to try to drop it,
    or to understand its nature and suggest alternatives. In this
    particular case it can be a system that logs user names,
    login and logout times.
    Blind copying of old features into an incompatible new architecture
    may endanger the whole project and can result in its failure.
    Hope this helps.

Database Configuration Assistant does not remove software. It can remove a database. As I mentioned before, there is a difference between the software and the objects that software manages. Deleting an Excel spreadsheet is not the same as deleting Microsoft Office. Deleting an Oracle database with Database configuration assistant is not the same as removing the Oracle software.

    Ok, that link takes us to the download page, which does not shed any light at all on your problems
    I'm using Windows Vista Home Premium, 32 bit operating system, and my computer is saying I have 142 GB free space.
    If you read the installation manual that came with the downloaded software, you'd have seen in the prerequisites that Home editions of Windows are NOT listed as supported platforms, whereas Business, Enterprise, and Ultimate editions specifically ARE listed as supportd.
    Hope this is some help.And
    I'm not to clever on computers so would you be able to advise how I get to the command window to issue the SET command please?
    Also I've no idea what OS user I am, I'm taking an on-line Oracle course and been advised to install "Oracle Database software for version 10g Release 2 Standard Edition, Standard Edition One, and Enterprise Edition"
    How do I find out if I'm part of an Administrator, ORA_DBA group ?
    Can you walk me through how to create the directory from command line please?Ok, given the above statements from you, I'm not even sure where to begin. I don't want to be cruel, but this self-admitted lack of even the most rudimentary knowledge by someone attempting to learn about Oracle is truly astounding. What course are you taking? Why are you taking this course?

  • Using Oracle Database Express Edition in development environment

    Hi All,
    I have doubt regarding the usage Oracle Database Express Edition in Development environment. I am not sure weather I can ask a non technical question here or not. Pleas forgive me if I have done any thing wrong.
    I am working in an IT company where we take up projects outsourced by our clients. As part of our current project we are making some modification to a web application used by an institution. Our client is using Oracle Data Base standard edition. Due to budgetary constraints of our Company we can not set up a Oracle standard edition data base in our development environment.
    So would it be illegal if we use  Oracle Database Express Edition in our development environment?  We can guarantee that  only our internal development team which comprise a maximum of 10 people will have access to this development database and this development data base will never be opened to our Client for their business purpose(Who have their own Oracle standard edition in their environment). As part of the project we delver only table DDL script and stored procedure to our client and they put it in their environment.The sole purpose of a internal Express database will be development only.
    Could some one please tell me if it would be violation of license agreement if we install Oracle Database Express Edition in our development environment.

    Hi Paul,
    Actually I have already gone through the Oracle Technology Network Developer License Terms for Oracle Database 11g Express Edition . But was not quiet clear about the content. It says in the license terms that "We grant you a nonexclusive, nontransferable limited license to use the programs for: (a) purposes of developing, prototyping and running your applications for your own internal data processing operations". Does the term "your application" includes an application we are developing for another company. Since the Express database  is installed in the development environment only and is not opened to any one else not even for Our client it definitely falls under the term "internal data processing operations" right?

  • Oracle SQL template to create re-usable DDL/DML Scripts for Oracle database

    Hi,
    I have a requirement to put together a Oracle SQL template to create re-usable DDL/DML Scripts for Oracle databases.
    Only the Oracle DBA will be running the scripts so permissions is not an issue.
    The workflow for any DDL is as follows:-
    1) New Table
    a. Check if the table exists from the system/admin views.
    b. If table exists then give message "Table Exists"
    c. If table does not exist then execute DDL code
    2) Add Column
    a. Check if Column exists for a given table from system/admin views
    b. If column exists in the specified table,
    b1. backup table.
    b2. alter table to make changes to the column
    b3. verify data or execute dml script convert from backup to the new change.
    c. If Column does not exist
    c1. backup table
    c2. alter table to add column
    c3. execute dml to populate column with default value.
    The DML scripts are for populating base tables with data required for business operations.
    3) Add new row
    a. check if row exists by comparing old values of each column with new values to be added for the new record.
    b. If exists, give message row exists
    c. If not exists, add new record.
    4) Update existing record (We have createtime columns in these tables so changes can be tracked)
    a. check if row exists using primary key.
    b. If exists,
    b1. deactivate the record using the "active" column of the table
    b2. Add new record with the changes required.
    c. If does not exist, add new record with the changes required.
    Could you please help with some ideas which can get this done accurately?
    I have tried several ways, but I am not able to put together something that fulfills all requirements.
    Thank you,

    First let me address your question. (This is the easy part.)
    1. The existence of tables can be found in DBA_TABLES. Query it and and then use conditional logic and execute immediate to process the DDL.
    2. The existence of table columns is found in DBA_TAB_COLUMNS. Query it and then conditionally execute your DDL. You can copy the "before picture" of the table using that same dba view, or even better, use DBMS_METADATA.
    As for your DML scripts, they should be restartable, reversible, and re-run-able. They should "fail gracefully" on error, be written in such a way that they can run twice in a row without creating duplicate changes.
    3. Adding appropriate constraints can prevent invalid duplicate rows. Also, you can usually add to the where clause so that the DML does only what it needs to do without even relying on the constraint (but the constraint is there as a safeguard). Look up the MERGE statement to learn how to do an UPSERT (update/insert), which will let you conditionally "deactivate" (update) or insert a record. Anything that you cannot do in SQL can be done with simple procedural code.
    Now, to the heart of the matter...
    You think I did not understand your requirements?
    Please be respectful of people's comments. Many of us are professionals with decades of experience working with databases and Oracle technology. We volunteer our valuable time and knowledge here for free. It is extremely common for someone to post what they feel is an easy SQL or PL/SQL question without stating the real goal--the business objective. Experienced people will spot that the "wrong question" has been asked, and then cut to the chase.
    We have some good questions for you. Not questions we need answers from, but questions you need to ask yourself and your team. You need to reexamine this post and deduce what those questions are. But I'll give you some hints: Why do you need to do what you are asking? And will this construct you are asking for even solve the root cause of your problems?
    Then ponder the following quotations about asking the right question:
    Good questions outrank easy answers.
    — Paul Samuelson
    The only interesting answers are those which destroy the questions.
    — Susan Sontag
    The scientific mind does not so much provide the right answers as ask the right questions.
    — Claude Levi-Strauss
    You can tell whether a man is clever by his answers. You can tell whether a man is wise by his questions.
    — Mahfouz Naguib
    One hears only those questions for which one is able to find answers.
    — Friedrich Nietzsche
    Be patient towards all that is unresolved in your heart and try to love the questions themselves.
    — Rainer Maria Rilke
    What people think of as the moment of discovery is really the discovery of the question.
    — Jonas Salk
    Judge a man by his questions rather than his answers.
    — Voltaire
    The ability to ask the right question is more than half the battle of finding the answer.
