Few Important Points about Oracle EPM 11.1.2.2
- “IBM Web Sphere 7.0.0.19+ is now supported as an application server.”
- Firefox 10.x+ and Internet Explorer 9 are now supported Web browsers
- Microsoft Office 2010 64 bit is now supported.
- Deployment report can be generated that provides information about configured Web applications, Web servers, databases, and data directories used by EPM System. This report helps troubleshoot issues that might arise in our deployment.
- The Oracle Enterprise Manager “Fusion Middleware Control” is now installed and deployed with EPM System.
- The EPM System Media pack on Oracle Software Delivery Cloud has been simplified. Software downloads have been merged together
- Installation of Oracle HTTP Server is now optional. If you choose not to install Oracle HTTP Server, for example in a development environment, Oracle Hyperion Enterprise Performance Management System Installer installs an embedded WebLogic HTTP Server as part of Oracle Hyperion Foundation Services that acts as a proxy server. In a production environment, Oracle recommends that you install Oracle HTTP Server for use with Oracle WebLogic Server or IBM HTTP Server for use with WebSphere. You can also install and manually configure Apache HTTP Server with WebLogic Server
- Microsoft Windows Installer (MSI) Client Installers are now provided for Oracle Essbase Client, Oracle Essbase Administration Services Console, Oracle Essbase Studio Console, and Oracle Hyperion Financial Management Client.
- Three new “rapid deployment” documents provide step-by-step instructions for building a typical Oracle Hyperion Planning, Financial Management, or Essbase development environment on a single server running Microsoft Windows
- A new Oracle Enterprise Performance Management System Standard Deployment Guide outlines the best-practice approach for deploying EPM System products. This approach is based on creating a base deployment of the products and then scaling out the services to handle the needed capacity
- A new “ADF” Web application has been added for Financial Management
- You can now manage Financial Management clusters from one machine. Cluster information is now stored in Oracle Hyperion Shared Services Registry rather than in the Windows registry
- The Oracle Hyperion Financial Reporting Print Server is now part of the Financial Reporting Web application. You no longer have to install the Print Server as part of the Financial Reporting Studio installation, and you no longer need Microsoft Office on the Print Server
- You can now deploy EPM System Web applications to a single managed server (compact server) in Development, Test, and Production environments. This reduces the overall memory requirement of EPM System and reduces startup time
- Oracle Hyperion Calculation Manager has replaced Oracle Hyperion Business Rules as the mechanism for designing and managing business rules, therefore, Business Rules is no longer released with EPM System Release 11.1.2.2
- The new, improved Planning user interface requires efficient browsers to handle interactivity provided through Web 2.0 like functionality. In our testing, Internet Explorer 7, Internet Explorer 8, and Firefox 3.x are not sufficient to handle such interactivity, and the responsiveness in these versions of browsers is not as fast as the user interface in the previous releases of Planning. For this reason, we strongly recommend that you upgrade your browser to Internet Explorer 9 or Firefox 10 to get responsiveness similar to what you experienced in previous releases.
- There have been a number of enhancements with Shared Services -
- Allows you to rename the default admin account during the deployment process.
- After deploying Foundation Services, you can deactivate the default EPM System Administrator account after provisioning another user with the Shared Services Administrator role
- LCM has been given an overhaul with many new features and changes -
- Simplified User Interface
- Simplified Migration Definition File
- Simplified Migration Status Report
- Automatic Application Shell Creation for Classic Applications
- Shared Disk Location defined in the configurator
- Support for ERPi
- Additional FR artifacts – Annotations, User POV, Batch jobs
- New replace option for Reporting and Analysis where only artifacts that have a newer last modified timestamp will be imported.
