11 Setting Up Oracle Business Intelligence Visualizations

When used with Oracle Life Sciences Data Hub, each OBIEE Subject Area is based on a single Oracle LSH Business Area with Table Descriptors that are mapped to Table instances.

When used with Oracle Life Sciences Data Hub, each OBIEE Subject Area is based on a single Oracle LSH Business Area with Table Descriptors that are mapped to Table instances. The OBIEE Subject Area displays the data contained in these Table instances. The Subject Area's name in OBIEE Answers is populated with the Business Area's name. Each Business Area is linked to an OBIEE Presentation Server. Users can launch OBIEE from inside Oracle LSH or through a URL for the Presentation Server linked to the Business Area.

The Presentation Server can support multiple Business Areas. Oracle LSH automatically merges the OBIEE repository (.rpd) file for each Business Area linked to the Presentation Server into one large .rpd file.

By default when you install the BI Server, a Presentation Server is also installed on the same computer. You must install the Oracle LSH Distributed Processing (DP) Server on this computer as well. All Business Areas defined in Oracle LSH then point to this Presentation Server. Oracle LSH merges the .rpd files for all Business Areas into a single large .rpd file.
