Information Retrieval

You can retrieve information from the data repository in several ways:

  • Reports. Write programs to generate reports—including tabulations, figures, and listings—on data.
  • Report Sets. Create formal sets of reports suitable for submission to regulatory agencies with a single table of contents, configurable page numbering, and hyperlinks. Using Oracle XML Publisher, you can create custom templates for these reports for A4- or US letter-sized paper with graphics and watermarks, and produce a single or multivolume PDF output.
  • Data Visualizations. Oracle LSH is integrated with Oracle Business Intelligence Enterprise Edition so that you can create ad hoc visualizations of Oracle LSH data in either tool, subject to Oracle LSH security requirements.
  • Data Marts. To send data out of Oracle LSH—to a partner organization or for longterm storage, for example—create Oracle LSH Data Marts, files of potentially very large amounts of data, in several possible formats including Oracle Export, SAS transport (XPORT and CPORT), SAS data sets, or text files.
