How to Begin with Oracle BI Cloud Service


Oracle BI Cloud Service offers features for different kinds of users. Most users will develop or consume content, such as visualizations, analyses and dashboards, to help them glean important information about their business.

Before users can sign in, administrators must have configured the user population and set up any database connections that their users will require. After they sign in, users can get started with Data Visualization right away.
Analyses and dashboards are based on subject area data models. To get started with these, loaders must have loaded data in to connected databases and modelers must have modeled the data. When data is modeled, users can create analyses and dashboards that allow them to glean important information about their business
