Oracle BI 12c: Build Repositories Ed 1

Course Description

Oracle BI 12c: Build Repositories Ed 1 develops applied skills across Oracle BI repository architecture, physical modeling, logical business models, presentation design, calculations, security, caching, and deployment. Learners work within a BI architecture team creating a reusable semantic model for finance, sales, and time-series reporting, linking configuration and process decisions to security, accuracy, availability, and operational ownership.

The course progresses through Repository Architecture and Physical Layer Modeling; Business Model and Mapping Layer Design; Presentation Layer, Calculations, and Time Series; Security, Cache, Multiuser Development, and Deployment. Every stage produces practical evidence, a validation record, troubleshooting notes, and a reusable handover outcome.

What You Will Learn

• Apply RPD architecture, Administration Tool, online/offline modes, and repository lifecycle while working through repository architecture and physical layer modeling.
• Validate databases, connection pools, schemas, aliases, joins, keys, and physical hierarchies and resolve issues involving complex joins, fragmented sources, connection failures, and physical model diagnostics.
• Apply logical tables, logical columns, logical table sources, and content levels while working through business model and mapping layer design.
• Validate dimension hierarchies, levels, keys, drill paths, and aggregation grain and resolve issues involving consistency checking, ambiguous mappings, double counting, and model correction.
• Apply subject areas, presentation tables, folders, aliases, and user-facing metadata while working through presentation layer, calculations, and time series.
• Validate logical calculations, derived facts, level-based measures, and dimensional functions and resolve issues involving usability review, naming standards, hidden objects, and analysis verification.
• Apply application roles, object permissions, data filters, session variables, and initialization blocks while working through security, cache, multiuser development, and deployment.
• Validate query cache configuration, seeding, purging, event polling, and cache diagnostics and resolve issues involving BAR files, validation, deployment sequencing, rollback, and production smoke tests.

Training Approach

Guided demonstrations, hands-on configuration, scenario analysis, validation checklists, controlled failure testing, troubleshooting, solution review, and a final improvement plan are used throughout Oracle BI 12c: Build Repositories Ed 1. Learners document assumptions, settings, outputs, exceptions, corrective actions, rollback needs, and operational responsibilities.
