Infrastructure for Hyperion

Hello,
Can any one share their experience wth Hyperion Infrastructure.
Which one is best (SAN , NAS, VMWARE , Cloud ) and why , what are the pro's and Con's (we are on Hyperion V11 - windows 2008 ) --
-- First thing regarding performance
-- Regarding Cost
-- Hardware crash..
-- Disaster Recovery and any other things that you faced...
Thanks for your help and time....

Every thing you have asked has different strengths and weaknesses.
What type of things are important to you?
Is low cost important?
Is high performance important?
Is high availability important?
Do you have an internal IT team who can support a complex environment?
Depending on how you answer these kinds of questions can really set the stage for what type of infrastructure to look at.
SANs / NAS - Can be good for data integrity however not so great for performance. For pure performance look at PCI SSD solutions e.g. Intel's new card and Fusion I/O.
Cloud - Wouldn't recommend cloud at this time for a production application. For Amazon specifically you can see their downtime of 1-2 days which has happened every year for last two years. Oracle is still refining their cloud solution.
Hosted Hyperion -- If you do not have a strong internal IT team then definitely look at hosted solutions e.g. Oracle On-Demand, Secure 24, ...
Virtualization -- For ultimate performance as many cores as you can afford -- the 64-bit 11.1.2.2 Essbase can support up to 128 cores in one calculation -- this means that if you have many users and a lot of complexity you cannot scale with virtualization. Usually you are limited to 32 cores with the best in class virtual platforms.

  • Skill set required for Hyperion environment patching

    Hi all,
    Could you please let me know what specific skill set is required for hyperion environment patching?
    Does it come under hyperion application administration? Could you please also help me understand the difference between Hyperion application administrator and Hyperion infrastructure administrator?

    Is there a reason for asking this question? It all depends on the company to how the role is defined, it is possbile application administrator or infrastructure administrator could be applying patches, usually falls more under an infra role though.
    You would usually need product knowledge, the technologies behind EPM and the architecture, OS skills.
    Cheers

  • Looking for Hyperion Hosting Thoughts/Recommendations

    Hello,
    I am hoping to get some opinions/thoughts about some of the companies providing Hyperion Application Hosting services. We are looking to move our Hyperion environment to a hosted service where someone could monitor the hardware, provide some services for Hyperion specific tuning related to the infrastructure and apply patches and upgrades. I know there is a service provided by Oracle and Secure 24 but any other suggestions? Has anyone worked with a hosting company and have feedback or suggestions.
    Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks!
    Tiffany

    I have work with Secure 24 -- they are as good as any choice in the hosting world.
    Realize you usually are getting hardware and infrastructure assistance not a turn-key service who has deep functional application knowledge. They can all patch, monitor, and backup the environment.
    Expecting them to be deep application experts is usually wishful thinking. If that is your expectation you should look for a hosting provider and a managed services provider which may be two separate companies.
    Additionally I would avoid any hosting providers that do not have dedicated infrastructure/disaster recovery. e.g. If the hosting provider is relying on a Cloud platform e.g. Amazon EC2/Rackspace then I would look at another provider. Both Oracle and Secure-24 have their own dedicated hardware and DR sites.

    There is no such specific document apart from what Oracle has provided in their documentation. However, It can give you an Idea on how to plan the infrastructure moving forward. A document which includes support matrix and sizing requirements can be found here

  • How to find maximum number of users we can assign for Hyperion Planning.

    HI,
    How to find maximum number of users we can assign for Hyperion Planning.i.e., how to find license limit in hyperion planning 11.1.2.1.
    In Essbase propreties, the system is showing maximum planning users could be 65535.
    what would be the number for concurrent scenario?
    Thanks
    Giri
    Edited by: Giriprasad on Jun 18, 2012 2:18 AM

    The number of users would be based on your license agreement with Oracle, the system is not aware of your license agreement so it is up to you to stick to it.
    Cheers

  • What are the features supported in Cisco Prime Infrastructure for WLAN for autonomous AP's?

    What are the features supported in Cisco Prime Infrastructure for WLAN for autonomous AP’s?

    • PI provides visibility for autonomous  clients within the same list view as lightweight and wired clients (client list  page).
    • Rogue AP detection for autonomous AP's is not supported (it's  supported in CUWN). 
    • Alarms/events for client authentication issues (e.g.  authentication failure) are displayed in PI.
    • Config management for  autonomous AP's is via CLI template.  Config comparison and archiving  functionality in PI leverages these same features that were brought in from LMS,  so need to defer to others in terms of whether this is a cross-platform feature  in PI or is only supported on a subset of platforms.  Config comparison/archive  is supported in CUWN.PI supports both infrastructure (e.g. AP Tx Power and  Channel, busiest AP, AP utilization, etc.) and client (e.g. client count, client  sessions, etc.) reports, and there are extensive reports for CUWN

    I do not think wired will even work with the 6.x runtimes. Your only real option is to put off the move untill you can manage the a6.5 upgrade.

  • Creating data server for Hyperion Shared Services (HSS)

    Hey Gang,
    Has anyone had experience in creating a Data Server for Hyperion Shared Services (HSS) using the java API? I know HSS uses Native Directory, but to be compliant the Hyperion folks recommend using the java API strictly to get access to the users, groups, etc.
    Anyone have experience with this, or perhaps at least how to get ODI to kick off a java file to pull the data needed? What effort would be needed in ODI, is it straight forward or would I have to develop a technology or something to integrate into ODI?
    Thanks.

    Thanks for the quick reply John. I am trying to get user and group information, and also doing some complex manipulation. I need this to verify user access and some other stuff. I will not always have access to HSS and cannot always export the information, thus the need to use the HSS java API.
    I'm trying to pull it out of HSS and put it into an Oracle table in a standard format where I'll use the information and do reporting off of it. I've developed a java class that does migrates the data over, but its crude and I'd like to move it into ODI with some of our projects that are currently doing the same thing with other ERP such as Ebiz and Peoplesoft.
    If I can recode some of the java in ODI, how would I go about doing that. Where would I include the libraries, etc.? is there a tutorial or a place where I can get started on that.
    Thanks for all the help.

  • Smart View Excel Add-in for Hyperion Enterprise 6.5

    Hi All,
    I'm trying add a data source connection directly in Connection Manager and my data source provider is Hyperion Enterprise. In the Install manual it mentions the following URL syntax for Hyperion Enterprise http://<servername>/heofficeprovider/heofficeprovider.aspx. I used the same syntax and added the server name but it errors out stating "Cannot connnect to provider. Make sure it running in the specifice host/port Error(401).
    Has anyone encountered such an error and what might be the solution for it?
    Thanks a lot for the help.

    Hello,
    Sounds like you have the right URL and Smartview 9.3.1.2 is compatible with HE 6.5.
    401 error is an Authorization error. So it may be an idea to start looking at the IIS server where the Enterprise Smart View Provider is installed.
    When you configured the provider did you give a valid anonymous user account with sufficient rights?
    There may be some messages about User rights or what is causing the error in the IIS Servers Windows Event Logs. Maybe have a look there first.

    Hi All,
    I am windows 8.1 OS on my laptop. So I have only IE version 11 and I cannot degrade to IE10.

  • Why do we use port no. 11333 for Hyperion planning?

    Why do we use port no. 11333 for Hyperion planning Metadata Load through ODI?

    What more do you need to know, when you deploy planning you will see that there is a "Java RMI Registry" service/process, this runs on port 13333. The planning adaptor communicates with the RMI registry and that then communicates with planning. If you need to know more then search for "Java RMI" on the internet.
