Obiee 12c and the leap forward in lifecycle management
0 likes127 views
This document discusses Oracle's OBIEE 12c and improvements to lifecycle management. It proposes a more flexible architecture using pluggable metadata modules and lightweight service instances. This would allow customizing metadata independently of other instances and simplify content portability using BAR files. However, the current 12c release only supports a singleton instance configuration.
