Other modules in Oracle Endeca Information Discovery

Studio includes the web-based Studio application and the Provisioning Service, used to upload data from spreadsheet files and other data sources. Studio and the Provisioning Service are contained in the same download.

Oracle Endeca Information Discovery 3.1.0 also includes the following separately-downloaded modules:

Module and Version Description
Oracle Endeca Server 7.6.0 Oracle Endeca Server provides the query engine that serves as the foundation for Studio applications. These applications can answer queries from and provide business analytics information application end users.

Oracle Endeca Server also allows you to administer Endeca data domains, which store the source data records that are loaded by Integrator ETL or the Provisioning Service.

Each Studio application is connected to an Endeca data domain.

Oracle Endeca Information Discovery Integrator 3.1.0 Oracle Endeca Information Discovery Integrator ETL is a high-performance data integration platform that allows you to extract source records from a different types of sources (from flat files to databases), then load that data into an Endeca Server data domain.
The Integrator suite includes:
  • Integrator ETL. Used to build graphs to load source data into and configure the schema for an Endeca Server data domain.
  • Information Discovery connectors. Integrator ETL components used to perform various data ingest operations on Endeca data domains.
  • Integrator ETL Server. Used to run graphs in an enterprise-wide environment. In this environment, different users and user groups can access and run the graphs.
  • Integrator Acquisition System. Optional component. The Integrator Acquisition System, or IAS, is a set of components that crawl source data stored in a variety of formats including: file systems, delimited files, JDBC databases, Web servers, and custom data sources.

    IAS transforms the data, if necessary, and outputs the data to an XML file or a Record Store that can be accessed by Integrator ETL for use in the Endeca Server.

Note that if you only use the Provisioning Service to create Studio applications, you do not need to install Integrator.

Oracle Endeca Server and Oracle Endeca Information Discovery Integrator have separate documentation sets, including separate installation guides.

Note that Studio 3.1.0 is only compatible with the above versions of Oracle Endeca Server and Integrator. It is not compatible with earlier versions of these modules.
