Behind the Scenes

Collaborating with the Database Team

Creating this report was a collaborative effort. The database team provided the necessary SQL queries for monitoring the database replication. My role was to tweak and optimize these queries to ensure they ran efficiently.

Transitioning to Oracle Analytics

A significant part of this project was transitioning the existing queries from Oracle BI Publisher to Oracle Analytics. The data sources for these reports were from Oracle Enterprise Manager (OEM), providing a robust foundation for our reporting needs.

Challenges Faced

One of the significant challenges was making the reports comprehensive yet easy to understand for various stakeholders. Balancing technical details with clear, concise summaries required careful planning and iteration. Additionally, integrating data from different sources and ensuring consistency across reports was a complex task that demanded meticulous attention to detail.

What's Next?
