KPI Partners has developed a data lineage and impact analysis tool to “look under the covers” of your Oracle BI deployment
Overview
KPI Partners has developed a Metadata Advisor tool which uses your existing OBIEE environment to provide quick, in-depth analysis into data lineage (source to target), impact analysis, gap analysis, and calculation analysis. Metadata Advisor provides insight into the information housed in web catalogs, .RPD files, DAC, ETL tools and more.
Easy To Use
Metadata Advisor simply functions within your existing OBIEE environment as an additional subject area. No additional software or hardware is required. Using the enhanced analytic capabilities of Oracle BI, Metadata Advisor provides out-of-the-box analytics on your data as it moves from source system to target report within your enterprise.
As changes are made to your living environment, Metadata Advisor dynamically documents all impacts to system modifications so they are visible for impact analysis and accuracy.
With pre-built metadata, reports, and dashboards, you can be on your way to complete understanding of your reporting environment in as little as one day.
Customizable
KPI’s Metadata Advisor is a service offering that can be completely customized to suit your environment and your users.
