OAC stands for Oracle Analytics Cloud Services, and it’s another cloud solution offered by Oracle. It provides you a lot of analytic tools for your data. The question is, do you need to be 100% cloud to use OAC services? Well, with ODI we always have options, and for OAC that is not an exception. In this presentation we’ll take a look at three different ways to use ODI to integrate all your data with OAC, ranging from using your existing on-premises environment to a 100% cloud solution (no ODI/DB footprint in your environment).

2. OAC and ODI! A match
made in the.... cloud?

What’s OCI
Oracle Cloud
Infrastructure is a set of
complementary cloud
services that enable you
to build and run a wide
range of applications
and services in a highly
available hosted
environment

What’s OCI and Types of OCI
• OCI Classic:
• Oracle Cloud Infrastructure Classic (OCI-C) is IaaS offering to provide Compute & Network
(Shared & IP Networks)
• OCI Classic is based on Nimbula Director (Xen based Hypervisor)
• OCI Classic provides only Virtual Machines (whereas OCI can also provide Bare Metal)
• OCI Classic can be deployed as a) Elastic Compute b) Dedicated Compute c) Sparc Model 300
• OCI
• Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) like OCI-C is also IaaS offering that provides Compute,
Network but as Virtual Cloud Network, Availability Domain and additionally Edge Services
like Email, DNS, Load Balancer etc.
• OCI provides both Bare Metal & Virtual Machines (whereas OCI-C provides only Virtual
Machine) Hypervisor in VM option of OCI is based on KVM (whereas on OCI-C this is Xen
based Hypervisor)

What's OAC and Types of OAC
• Oracle Analytics Cloud (OAC) is a scalable and secure public cloud service that
provides a full set of capabilities to explore and perform collaborative analytics
for you, your workgroup, and your enterprise
• OAC is available in three editions: Standard, Enterprise, and Essbase
• Each of this editions are available on Oracle Analytics Cloud, Oracle Analytics
Cloud Subscription, and Oracle Analytics Cloud - Classic
Edition Oracle Analytics Cloud

What's OAC and Types of OAC
• OAC instances are not self-containing and require some additional OCI services.
• The absolute minimum configuration is the following:
• Oracle Cloud Storage (OCS) - is used for backups, log files, etc.
• Oracle Cloud Database Instance (DBC) - is used for RCU schemas.
• Oracle Analytics Cloud Instance (OAC) - is our ultimate target.
• If you want to provide a public IP to you OAC you also need:
• Creating an IP Network
• Provisioning Load Balancer on an IP Network

What's DBCS and Types of DBCS
• Oracle Database Cloud Service provides you the ability to deploy
Oracle databases in the Cloud, with each database deployment
containing a single Oracle database or an Oracle Data Guard
Service Ideal Customer

Possible Architectures
• Since we must have a DBCS before we can install/config our OAC
instance, we should think about how we want our architecture to
look like
• We can have 2 different approaches for that:

@DEVEPM
DBCS as OAC Source
• DBCS will be the source of OAC
data
• DBCS needs to be powerful
enough to handle the work load
• We need to have a VPN between
the DBCS and our on premise DB
• If we choose to have the
“Compute” version of DBCS we
can use any VPN you may want
to install
• Use VPNaaS to integrate the
entire OCI with our data center

12. DevEpm.com
@RZGiampaoli
@RodrigoRadtke
@DEVEPM
DBCS with ODI on it
• If we want a 100% cloud solution we can choose the DBCS compute
solution and bring our own ODI license to it.
• Since we have a VPN between our DBCS and our on premises we
just need to install our ODI Agent on it and use it normally
• We can also install the ODI client to make the access faster
• With this approach we can:
• Not have a DB on premises*
• Not have a ODI on premises
• Connect in different source around the world (Different VPNs for each)
• Shared folder accessible from on premises
• FTPs to send file to and from it

@DEVEPM
DBCS with ODI on it
• This solution moves the internet latency from the
data retrieval in OAC to the data load
• This means the end user experience would be
better
• Also it decreases the infra footprint
• Since the DBCS will be administrated by us, we still
need a DBA and an admin to handle the backups,
patches, ODI and everything else.
• All benefits to have a scalable architecture
provided by the cloud solutions are still present

DBCS with ODI on premises
• This solution is ideal to companies that already has a big
infra footprint and want to keep control over it
• It is basically the same solution as before but all the ETL
process were handle on premises and then loaded the
final DW data to DBCS
• Remove the need to have the Compute license for DBCS
• As well the possible need of DBA or anyone to handle
the DBCS admin tasks (Depending of the chosen service)
• Also moves the internet latency from the data retrieval
in OAC to the data load improving the user experience

@DEVEPM
On Premises as OAC Source
• On Premise DB will be the source of OAC data
• On Premise DB needs to be powerful enough to handle the work
load
• We can have 3 different “Tunnels” options between the On Premise
DB and OAC
• The internet needs to be very fast and stable
• The latency will be in the data retrieval instead of on the data load

DB/ODI on Premise with Remote Connect
/Data Gatway
• Remote Data Connector works with the BI
Server Data Gateway running in the Oracle BI
Cloud Service environment to provide secure
access to on-premises data using private/public
key pairs and SSL communication.
• Remote Data Connector supports these on-
premises database types:
• Oracle, SQL Server, Teradata
• Each Oracle BI Cloud Service instance is
provisioned with a unique private key
• A public key is available for download from
Oracle BI Cloud Service Console
• This public key when deployed on Weblogic on-
premises will make the DB visible from the
Cloud

DB/ODI on Premise with Remote
Connect/Data Gatway
• OAC will request data from your on-premise databases using
the Remote Connect Weblogic Plugin (Webservice-like
service)
• That means our on-premise environment can continue the
same as before and no data needs to be replicated
• ODI will continue to load our data warehouse
• On OAC Version 105.3 (June release) Oracle introduced Data
Gateway that will replace Remote Connect.
• Remote Connect will still be available but oracle
recommend replace it in the next 6 months.
• Data Gateway basically replaces the Weblogic requirement
from remote connect.

DB/ODI on Premise with VPNaaS
• We can use VPNaaS to create a
tunnel between our OCI
environment and our data
center
• With this we can have anything
inside our OCI accessing our on
premises databases (or other
services)
• These can be use in the DBCS
as Source architecture as well

19. DevEpm.com
@RZGiampaoli
@RodrigoRadtke
@DEVEPM
DB/ODI on Premise with VPNaaS
• After the VPN is set, anything that is in OCI will be able
to access our on premises environment
• That means if we already have a star schema set in our
on premises, we just need to point OAC to this schema
and use it as is
• This is ideal to companies that already has a big BI
infrastructure and want to make use of the cloud
capabilities without losing the existing architecture
• The internet needs to be very fast and stable
• The latency will be in the data retrieval instead of on
the data load

DB/ODI on Premise with FastConnect
• Oracle FastConnect is a network connectivity alternative to using
the public internet for connecting your network with Oracle Cloud
Infrastructure and other Oracle Cloud services
• FastConnect provides an easy, elastic, and economical way to
create a dedicated and private connection with higher bandwidth
options, and a more reliable and consistent networking experience
when compared to internet-based connections.
• With FastConnect we create a direct link between our data center
and the data center where your Oracle Cloud resources are
provisioned

environment with the datacenter where your Oracle
Cloud resources are provisioned
• We’ll have a secure and guarantee bandwidth
between our servers.
• ODI will continue to load our data warehouse
• OAC will access the on-premise DB directly
• No internet latency just the link latency

Conclusion
• There’s no right or wrong architecture, but the best fit to our case
• As we can see there’re a range of solutions to integrate on
premises environments with OAC
• We can go full cloud, migrating our on premises architecture to
cloud, including ODI, and we can manage from there all data
needed
• Or we can leverage what we have on premises and just uses the
OAC analytics capability to work the data
• We also have a range of ways to link or environments
• You just need to find out what is the best one for you
