OracleWorld 2003 September 7-11

OracleWorld 2003 starts September 7. If you are attending, we would love to meet with you in person. We are presenting "Using OWB to create OLAP Warehouses" on September 8 and will be attending all week.

If you cannot attend, be sure to watch the live coverage of the event, including live streaming video, webcams, and chats, at Oracle's website: http://www.oracle.com/oracleworld/online/. We will share important announcements regarding 10gOLAP in next month's newsletter.

Keep Eye Out For OLAP 9.2.0.4.1

The Oracle9i OLAP release 9.2.0.4.1 will improve many of the 9iOLAP stored procedures and introduce the Analytic Workspace Manager (AWM). AWM allows for the creation of Analytic Workspaces based upon relational OLAP cubes contained in the OLAP Catalog. Management of Analytic Workspaces is now much easier. This patch makes great strides to making the use of 9iOLAP easier and shows how Oracle is dedicated to continuing to improve upon their great OLAP engine. This is the patch many of you have been waiting for! Expect more information on this release in our next newsletter or contact us for more information. Call or email us if you want us to notify you the day this release is publicly available.

See http://metalink.oracle.com and http://www.otn.oracle.com for up-to-date patches for all of your Oracle systems.
