"IBM+SAP" vs Oracle

Interesting scenario:
IBM and SAP have tied up to compete with Oracle. SAP has integrated their High-Performance Analytic Appliance(HANA) with IBM DB2. Below link says:
"SAP and IBM are in tight co-opetition, with Oracle as their joint mortal enemy,"
"if HANA ever becomes sufficiently compelling, Oracle will have to partner with it."

Hello,
I've also heard that Oracle and IBM are partner to deliver Solutions and Services together.
This is just from IBM site:
http://www-935.ibm.com/services/us/index.wss/offering/bcs/a1002900
Idem for Oracle and SAP:

SAP MDM, ORACLE MDM, Microsoft MDM and IBM MDM

Could someone discuss the differences and similarities between these MDMs-
SAP MDM, ORACLE MDM, Microsoft MDM and IBM MDM. Who is/will dominate the Market?
Thank you.
Priya.

Hi priya k ,
These r the details regarding MDMs-SAP MDM, ORACLE MDM, Microsoft MDM and IBM MDM.
SAP Master Data Management
SAP Master Data Management (SAP MDM) enables master data on customers, partners and products to be consolidated and harmonized across the enterprise, making it available to all staff and business partners. A key component of SAP NetWeaver, SAP MDM ensures data integrity across all IT systems.
The SAP NetWeaver Master Data Management (SAP NetWeaver MDM) component of SAP NetWeaver creates the preconditions for enterprise services and business process management. The functionality represents customers, products, employees, vendors, and user-defined data objects in unified form. With SAP NetWeaver MDM, customers can manage master data and supplemental content, such as texts, PDF documents, high-resolution images, or diagrams in a central business information warehouse.
SAP Master Data Management (SAP MDM) is a component of SAP's NetWeaver product group and is used as a platform to consolidate, cleanse and synchronise a single version of the truth for master data within a heterogeneous application landscape. It has the ability to distribute internally and externally to SAP and non-SAP applications. SAP MDM is a key enabler of SAP Enterprise Service-Oriented Architecture. Standard system architecture would consist of a single central MDM server connected to client systems through SAP Exchange Infrastructure using XML documents, although connectivity without SAP XI can also be achieved. There are five standard implementation scenarios:
Content Consolidation - centralised cleansing, de-duplication and consolidation, enabling key mapping and consolidated group reporting in SAP BI. No re-distribution of cleansed data.
Master Data Harmonisation - as for Content Consolidation, plus re-distribution of cleansed, consolidated master data.
Central Master Data Management - as for Master Data Harmonisation, but all master data is maintained in the central MDM system. No maintenance of master data occurs in the connected client systems.
Rich Product Content Management - Catalogue management and publishing. Uses elements of Content Consolidation to centrally store rich content (images, PDF files, video, sound etc.) together with standard content in order to produce product catalogues (web or print). Has standard adapters to export content to DTP packages.
Global Data Synchronization - provides consistent trade item information exchange with retailers through data hubs (e.g. 1SYNC) Some features (for example, workflow) require custom development out of the box to provide screens for end users to use.
History
SAP is currently on its second iteration of MDM software. Facing limited adoption of its initial release, SAP changed direction and in 2004 purchased a small vendor in the PIM space called A2i. This code has become the basis for the currently shipping SAP MDM 5.5, and as such, most analysts consider SAP MDM to be more of a PIM than a general MDM product at this time.

Oracle MDM
Oracle MDM is a core Fusion technology that will enable them to integrate their diverse portfolio of acquired solutions (PeopleSoft, JD Edwards, Siebel, etc.) and allow them to work together much more effectively.MDM is also a key component of Oracles middleware strategy to aggressively target heterogeneous environments solutions running on different databases, operating systems, and using different data warehouse or analytical solutions. Oracle is a leading provider of ERP and CRM applications, but more broadly they are a provider of core platform solutions that help pull together and harmonise all a companys IT assets.
Master Data Management solutions provide the ability to consolidate and federate master information from disparate systems and lines of business into one central data repository or hub. As part of its Master Data Management strategy, Oracle offers solutions that enable customers to synchronise critical information in a single, central location to achieve an accurate, 360-degree view of data, whether from packaged, legacy or custom applications. Oracle offers the following solutions:
Oracle Product Information Management Data Hub Enables companies to centralise, manage and synchronise all product information with heterogeneous systems and trading partners.
Oracle Customer Hub Centralises, de-duplicates and enriches customer data, continuously synchronising with other data sources across the enterprise, to provide a single, accurate, authoritative source of customer information throughout the enterprise.
Oracle Financial Consolidation Hub Allows companies to control the financial consolidation process by integrating and automating data synchronisation, currency translation, inter-company eliminations, acquisitions and disposals.
Clean, consolidated and accurate master data distributed throughout the enterprise can save companies millions of dollars annually. With Oracle, organisations are equipped to leverage the best data management practices available today to help dramatically increase operating efficiencies, improve customer loyalty and ensure corporate governance.
MDM solutions provide the ability to consolidate and federate disparate systems and lines of business into one central data repository. Acxiom is the world's largest processor of consumer data and collects and manages more than a billion records a day for its customers, which include nine of the country's top ten credit-card issuers and most major retail banks, insurers and automakers. By integrating Acxiom's consumer data with Oracle's comprehensive MDM solutions, Oracle plans to provide customers with a pre-packaged, content-enriched customer information repository with unprecedented levels of data quality. This hybrid approach to customer data management will help clients conduct better, faster and easier MDM projects and perform more targeted marketing campaigns to cross-sell and up-sell into existing customer accounts.
Oracle's MDM solutions serve as a customer data hub to unify customer data across multiple business units and functionally disparate systems.

Transfer Of Data from Sap to Oracle with the help of Enterprise Services.

Hello,
We want to transfer data from Sap to Oracle using standard Enterprise Services.Some fields were not available in the existing standard Enterprise Services,so we have enhanced the existing Services by writing code inside BADI available with Enterprise Services.Rest of the fields we have mapped with the existing fields available in standard Enterprise Services.But,the Oracle people want to fetch all data from Sap without entering any input as a mandatory field in the Enterprise Services.The existing standard Enterprise Services require to enter any field as mandatory and are not accepting the range in input for multiple records.e.g.All enterprise Services related to Sales Orders are displaying only one sales Order.We have searched all Enterprise Services for Sales Order(related to reading of data),but not able to find service which would display mutiple records without entering any input.ECC_SALESORDER009QR is the only service which is displaying multiple records without entering any input,but the required fields are not available in this service.So,kindly suggest what we need to do further.
1.Should we go for customization of services completely,so that it would fulfil our requirement.
2.Are there standard Enterprise Services exists which would we give us data in range(all records).
If they exists,please specify the names of Services for reading Purchase Order,Production Order,BOM etc.
Thanks & Regards,
Divya.

Hi Vaibhav,
Let me tell you the objective in detail.
Objective.
To develop a package solution which will work as a bridge between Oracle APS and SAP system so that customers using SAP will be able to use advantages of Oracle APS for their planning needs.
This will consist of following major components:
OA Templates is an Oracle utility to load data from any legacy system to Oracle APS using standard flat files.
Oracle has developed an Application Integration Architecture which is a standard architecture used for integration of Oracle products with other systems.
Enterprise services is an SAP utility to communicate with SAP.
AIA canonicals are standard canonicals developed by Oracle where we have to map data fields from destination system (Oracle APS) and source system (SAP)
Fusion middleware is being used to develop application interfaces following AIA standards.
Tasks at stake:
Mapping of Oracle APS fields and SAP Enterprise Service fields to AIA canonicals
Technical work of developing middleware using Oracle Fusion
From Sap side,we have to map fields which we have received from Oracle with the help of Enterprise Services,rest consumption of these services is done by Oracle guys.So,suggest is there enterprise services available which would give us multiple records .
Thanks & Regards,
Divya.

IBM DB2 to Oracle Database Migration Using SQL Developer

Hi,
We are doing migration of the whole database from IBM DB2 8.2 which is running in WINDOWS to Oracle 11g Database in LINUX.
As part of pre-requisites we have installed the Oracle SQL Developer 4.0.1 (4.0.1.14.48) in Linux Server with JDK 1.7. Also Established a connection with Oracle Database.
Questions:
1) How can we enable the Third Party Database Connectivity in SQL Developer?
I have copied the files db2jcc.jar and db2jcc_license_cu.jar from the IBM DB2 (Windows) to Oracle (Linux)
2) Will these JAR files are universal drivers? will these jar files will support in Linux platform?
3) I got a DB2 full privileged schema name "assistdba", Shall i create a new user with the same name "assistdba" in the Oracle Database & grant DBA Privillege? (This is for Repository Creation)
4) We have around 35GB of data in DB2, shall i proceed with ONLINE CAPTURE during the migration?
5) Do you have any approx. estimation of Time to migrate a 35 GB of data?
6) In-case of any issue during the migration activity, shall i get an support from Oracle Team (We have a Valid Support ID)?
7) What are all the necessary Test Cases to confirm the status of VALID Migration?
Request you to share the relevant metalink documents!!!
Kindly guide me in-order to go-ahead with the successful migration.
Thanks in Advance!!!

Hi Klaus,
Continued with the above posts - Now we are doing another database migration from IBM DB2 to Oracle, which is very less of data (Eg: 20 Tables & 22 Indexes).
As like previous database migration, we have done the pre-requirement steps.

Data migration from SAP to Oracle

Can any one suggest best possible method for migrating master and transactional data from SAP to Oracle.
Please suggest methods to get data in text file from SAP.

Best approach would be to use Electronic Data Interchange (EDI) outbound from SAP inbound to Oracle. There are two widely used standards in EDI messages - ANSI X12 and EDIFACT; I'm pretty sure the Oracle system will be able to accept one of the two standards or both.
In my last message, when I asked if Oracle is able to receive and process IDocs, I actually meant if Oracle will be able to accept and process EDI messages. IDocs are containers of the EDI message i.e. a data container - their formats are SAP proprietary formats which will not make sense to your target system (Oracle). EDI has been around for many years and is the standard way of electronically exchanging business documents between computer systems of business partners, using a standard format over a communication network.
In regards to your question - I'm not really sure if you want to send master/transactional data real-time from SAP to Oracle or want to transfer the historical data i.e. download from SAP tables (thru SE16 - this will download the field labels as well) into text files and then upload it to Oracle by using a custom program which reads/maps the files then posts the transactional data/updates master data tables in Oracle as required by that system. So let me know as much details as possible.
It would be nice to show appreciation by rewarding points.
Cheers,
Sougata.

How to get messages from IBM MQ in Oracle.

Hi ,
Can you please help me how to get messages from one IBM MQ to another IBM MQ in Oracle.
My requirement is Our upstream is putting messages from their IBM MQ to our IBM MQ
then we have to extract data from the message and load into Oracle database tables
how to implement this in oracle.
Is there any other way to implement this without writing any ORACLE PL/SQL programming.
Please help me.
Thanks.

You might want to use Oracle AQ: Integrating Oracle database applications with WebSphere MQ applications You will need to write some PL/SQL to Dequeue from Oracle AQ and convert the queue payload into insert statements.
If you need help wityh AQ, there is a separate forum: Advanced Queueing

File transfer through IBM SAP Adapter

Hi,
We are developing a solution where our SAP ECC 6 needs to receive transactional information via the IBM SAP ADAPTER.
The Adapter will make a call to a remote function module that we will expose.
I would like to know whether it is advisable to pass the file data as a string in the function module.
The file is a flat file which consists of header, detail and trailer sections and can be bigger than 1MB.
The IBM SAP Adapter will call the function and can the data be passed as a string without any performance issues.
Regards,
Michael Mayisana
Moderator message - Moved to the correct forum
Edited by: Rob Burbank on Nov 5, 2009 9:04 AM

Hi Michael,
It's tough to answer your question as there's different perspectives to performance and it also depends a lot on the system and usage model. In general I'd say you shouldn't have any issue transferring even 10MB via RFC. I've done this several times and it works fine. However, you're just mentioning file might be above 1MB (so can it be arbitrary big?) and you don't mention what else is going on (e.g. are there lots of those processes that might run in parallel or are there already lots of other things going on).
In principle I'd say the more scalable approach would be to utilize the usual OPEN-TRANSFER-CLOSE approach that you normally have with files. I.e. you'd call one RFC to initialize the transfer, then have another RFC (called possibly multiple times) that transfers chunks/blocks of data and finally another RFC that signals the end of the data transfer. The data transfer can be configured with a predefined block size (e.g. 1MB), which would work as the single RFC in most cases, but also be able to process files that are 100MB without any issues. Of course this introduces more overhead and assumes that memory is possibly scarce. If memory is there in abundance, it's probably easier to transfer everything in one chunk.
Best wishes, harald

IBM Websphere Vs Oracle's Weblogic server
Can ODI run on IBM Websphere?
How feasible is it to shift ODI from Oracle Web logic to IBM Websphere?
What challenges , efforts required in ODI code to do so?
Please suggest.
Thanks in Advance.
Regards,

1. Well for your 1st question I believe you can.
2. I believe it will go fine because you just need one application server to deploy your ee agent.
3. I have never tried IBM websphere as an application sewrver in ODI but it shouldnt be that much completed as you are thinking. Better you do R&D in your local system. Also I am not sure about the issues you will face in future. ( for ex maple PermGen errors, issues in clustering etc)

SAP on Oracle RAC+ASM 11g - SWPM installation Option

Dear Experts,
I came across SAP Note 1977393 which is describing the installation steps of a RAC installation with SWPM with an example.
However, the note is not describing the exact preparation steps to be performed on the cluster nodes.
For example, the note doesn't describe if it's required to install the Oracle Grid Infrastructure on the Cluster Nodes before using the SWPM with the RAC+ASM option.
Thanks in advance.

Deploy IBM EAR on Oracle Application Server 10G

Hi,
I need to deploy an IBM EAR to Oracle Application Server 10G. When i'm trying to deploy I get this message.
Deployment failed: The evaluate phase failed. The Adapter used in the evaluate may have thrown an exception.
Resolution:
Please call Oracle support.

Giuseppe,
It appears that this EAR utilizes Apache Common Logging and the following import might have been uses in some of the java classes.
import org.apache.commons.logging.LogFactory;
I don't think these can be deployed in Oracle 10gAS as is.

Volumes and Qtrees set up for SAP and Oracle

Hi Gurus
I Need your help Please
I need to get Volumes and Qtrees set up for SAP and Oracle.
I found a document from NetApp that helped a lot about the structure.
But what I donu2019t know and canu2019t find anywhere is sizing for the volumes and Qtrees.
I really need some guidelines on sizing these below:
FlexVol saplog
/usr/sap/SID
/usr/sap/trans
/sapmnt/SID
/home/SIDadm
/oracle/SID
/oracle/SID/origlogA
/oracle/SID/origlogB
/oracle/SID/oraarch

/oracle/SID/sapbackup
/oracle/SID/saparch
FlexVol sapdata
/oracle/SID/sapdata1
/oracle/SID/sapdata2
/oracle/SID/sapdataN
FlexVol mirrlogs
/oracle/SID/mirrlogA
/oracle/SID/mirrlogB
Thanks and appreciate your help

> I have gone through the Inst Guide and I was surprised to see only 50 MB for Oracle software directory ?
Where did you read that?
> The sizing given in Installation guide is for typical setup or do we need to size as per our requirement ?
The sizing give there is for the initial system setup. It does not contain customer specific requirements.
The usual process is:
- you contact your hardware vendor
- you use http://service.sap.com/quicksizer together with him and fill in the data
- the hardware vendor will offer you the storage and the machines for the setup
- the vendor configures with you the storage and the necessary filesystem layout based on that sizing
Each customers setup is different and requires the experience and knowledge from the respective hardware vendor how to set up the system so it performs well.
You can follow the suggestions given here, this will be enough for the initial setup but the system will grow. This is not taken into account in the installation guide because it's customer specific.

SAP does neither "recommend" nor "deny" any processors.
If you check http://service.sap.com/benchmarks then you get a lot of machines with different CPUs/operating ssytems and database combinations.
Choose the one that suits best for you.
