About Oracle Utilities Data Intelligence

Oracle Utilities Data Intelligence is a suite of analytics applications that provides real-time access to data in the on-premise Oracle Utilities Customer To Meter application and in cloud services such as Oracle Customer Cloud Service and Oracle Meter Solution Cloud Service. It is powered by Oracle Autonomous Data Warehouse and Oracle Analytics Cloud, and it offers a library of ready-to-use, best practice key metrics across customer and meter applications to help you make quick and collaborative decisions. It includes rich pre-built analytical subject areas, measures, key performance indicators, and workbooks that allow you to create visualizations from your data and derive strategic insights.
