My co-worker says you should re-try the Academy link for the docs now that our doc library is "live." I think people who have not purchased the product can still view the docs here: http://docs.oracle.com/cloud/latest/analytics-cloud/analytics-cloud-docs.html.

This all has the feeling of ...OK, I'll say it. This all has the feeling of 1994 when I was building cubes in Keenan Acumate with Excel and csv files. Back to the future?<br /><br />Instead of re-inventing the wheel, wouldn't it have been easier to port an EAS instance to the cloud then allow the "fat" EAS client to access it? That would also provide a great gateway for SmartView interactions, Maxl, etc... but noooooo, Oracle has to reinvent the wheel. (again)<br /><br />Cubes "on demand"? Right, we've heard that one before but what client would want to do that. What about integration with non-Oracle datasources (SQL server, SAP anyone?). I'm assuming partitioning options are down the road as well or do we scale now via "brute force" (turning up the "cloud power" dial)?<br /><br />Future post maybe about DRM? I see a lot of manual process here but where's the automation piece?<br /><br />If in a future blog post, apologies for jumping ahead. On to the next step in the blog stream!<br /><br />-oldtimerBryanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06371218456798260410noreply@blogger.com
