OBIEE This is the end?

…..not really, but ….

 As most of you might have notice my activity’s in the OBIEE community have been minimal during the last year or so.
How come?
I have accepted a new challenge in becoming the team lead for Microsoft BI at Ciber in the Netherlands .
This means I have little to none time left for OBIEE blogging.  And thinks like visiting the Rittman-Mead conference in Brighton this year are sadly also out of the question.
I will be closing the possibility of adding comments / question on this blog because I don’t have any time left to filter out the spam.
I hope to pick my OBIEE and other blogging activities up in the future but for now:
Good luck and hope to see you again!

Till Next Time

OBIEE 11116 repository on MS-SQL I

We had to do a POC on some MS-SQL data. Instead of bringing an extra Oracle DB we used an existing MS-SQL instance.

1. Create a repository database:

We called ours “Repositories” Winking smile

2. Enable case-sensitive collation

ALTER DATABASE Repositories COLLATE Latin1_General_CS_AS

3. Enable Row versioning

ALTER DATABASE Repositories SET READ_COMMITTED_SNAPSHOT ON
