About Oracle Management Cloud for PeopleSoft

Oracle Management Cloud is a suite of integrated monitoring, management, and analytics cloud offerings. This suite is designed for today’s heterogeneous environments including on-premises, Oracle Cloud, and third-party cloud services. It unifies data and metrics from PeopleSoft entities across your environment into a single platform, providing you with visualizations and detailed information to help troubleshoot performance issues or prevent future ones based on forecasting. Here's a high-level overview diagram outlining an integration of a PeopleSoft environment with Oracle Management Cloud components.

Regardless of which PeopleSoft application you have deployed - whether Human Capital Management (HCM), Enterprise Resource Management (ERP), Financials and Supply Chain Management (FSCM) or Campus Solutions - Oracle Management Cloud enables you to view availability and performance data related to PeopleSoft components such as:

  • Application Server Domains
  • Process Scheduler Domains
  • Pure Internet Architecture (PIA)

Once you discover a PeopleSoft application from Oracle Management Cloud, you gain access to numerous monitoring, diagnostic and analytic capabilities, including the following:

  • Monitor the status of submitted PeopleSoft processes to identify processes that are stuck or encountered errors.
  • Monitor infrastructure components such as Oracle WebLogic Servers, Oracle Database and underlying hosts to determine if their poor health is negatively impacting the application.
  • Use out-of-the-box dashboards against a single PeopleSoft application to understand its overall health.

    Create custom dashboards using predefined widgets in order to satisfy unique needs for monitoring your PeopleSoft applications.

  • Determine common error trends to examine both ongoing and intermittent issues that may impact end users.
  • Analyze log message trends for the underlying host or hosts that support a PeopleSoft application.
  • Create solution based alert rules using dedicated triggers for user specific alerting.
  • Proactively monitor the user experience and trace the issues to back-end functions.
  • Correlate issues found in Oracle Infrastructure Monitoring and Oracle Application Performance Monitoring with PeopleSoft log data.
  • Identify and resolve infrastructure capacity bottlenecks.
  • Forecast seasonal capacity trending and potential issues.
