Overview of Ask Essbase

Ask Essbase is an AI-powered Oracle Essbase feature that allows you to retrieve information about Essbase technology and usage. Using natural language questions in a chat-style interface, you can receive answers sourced from official Essbase documentation combined with your choice of available GenAI models.

Key Components
  • Generative AI Tool: Integrates the DBMS_CLOUD_AI package for smart search and response.
  • Storage: Uses Autonomous AI Database for vector data and Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) Object Storage for documents.
  • Embedding Model: Converts documentation into searchable vectors using the Cohere embedding model.
  • Large Language Model: Processes queries and generates responses using the Meta Llama model (recommended), or an available model of your choice.
  • Response Delivery: Provides clear answers along with direct explanations and links to the relevant Oracle documentation for reference.

How It Works: When you enter a question into Ask Essbase, available as a chat function on the Academy page of the Essbase web interface, the system automatically searches relevant content, processes your query using AI, and displays a clear, concise answer with links to the original documentation.
