Oracle BICS Support Services for Reliable BI Operations and Performance

Quick Summary

DataTerrain provides Oracle BICS support services covering performance diagnostics, ETL development, HCM data extraction, data integration, dashboard customization, environment migration, and Oracle Analytics Cloud (OAC) transition support. With 17+ years of BI experience, DataTerrain helps organizations maintain, optimize, and modernize their Oracle BI environments.

DataTerrain provides Oracle BICS support services for organizations running Oracle Business Intelligence Cloud Service (BICS) environments, including those integrated with Oracle Analytics Cloud (OAC). Services include performance diagnostics, ETL development, data integration, dashboard customization, environment migration, and ongoing BI support.

What Is Oracle BICS Support?

Oracle Business Intelligence Cloud Service (BICS) is an Oracle cloud analytics platform used for business intelligence, reporting, dashboards, and data analysis. Organizations that continue to operate existing BICS environments may require technical support for performance, data integration, reporting, customization, and environment management.

Oracle Analytics Cloud is Oracle's current cloud analytics platform, providing capabilities for data visualization, reporting, dashboards, and analytics. Oracle also provides documented migration paths from BICS environments to Oracle Analytics Cloud.

Oracle BICS support can therefore cover both ongoing support for existing environments and activities associated with modernization or transition toward OAC.

Key Oracle BICS Support Services from DataTerrain

System Health Checks and Performance Diagnostics

DataTerrain conducts Oracle BICS health checks to identify performance bottlenecks, failed data loads, configuration issues, report-load problems, and data-refresh issues.

These assessments help organizations identify technical problems before they affect business users. Organizations requiring broader BI environment assessments can also use DataTerrain's Oracle Business Intelligence environment health check.

HCM Data Extraction

DataTerrain supports HCM data extraction through BIACM (Business Intelligence Applications Configuration Manager), enabling access to incremental data changes.

This helps organizations maintain timely and accurate HR reporting and analytics.

Code Customization and ETL Development

DataTerrain customizes existing ETL code and develops new ETL workflows to support business-specific data sources and third-party applications.

Data can be integrated with Oracle Autonomous Data Warehouse (ADW) environments, allowing Oracle BICS reporting environments to work with additional enterprise data sources.

Source File Processing

DataTerrain processes data from sources such as HCM, PeopleSoft, and Taleo, transforming and loading the data into the data warehouse using Oracle Data Integrator (ODI).

This helps consolidate data from multiple sources for reporting and analytics.

OBIA Repository Customization

DataTerrain supports customization of security settings and objects within the OBIA (Oracle Business Intelligence Applications) RPD (Repository Definition) file.

This allows organizations to align reporting access and repository configurations with business requirements.

New Source Implementation

As organizations introduce new applications and data sources, DataTerrain supports integrating additional sources into the Oracle BI environment.

This enables organizations to extend their reporting and analytics capabilities without redesigning the entire BI environment.

Dashboard and Report Customization

DataTerrain develops and customizes Oracle BICS dashboards and reports, including visualizations created using Visual Analyzer.

Dashboards and reports can be adapted to changing operational, business, and reporting requirements.

Environment Migration and Code Maintenance

DataTerrain supports migrations between development, testing, and production environments while maintaining consistency across the codebase.

The team also supports organizations planning transitions from existing BICS environments toward Oracle Analytics Cloud, including data, reporting, and environment migration activities. Oracle provides documented migration procedures for moving BICS data to OAC.

Oracle BICS and Oracle Analytics Cloud Support

Organizations maintaining BICS environments may also need support as they modernize their analytics infrastructure.

DataTerrain can support:

Existing BICS environment maintenance
BICS performance diagnostics
Dashboard and report customization
ETL and data integration
Data and environment migration
OAC transition support
Reporting validation
BI environment optimization

Oracle Analytics Cloud currently provides capabilities for data visualization, dashboards, reporting, data modeling, and analytics.
