The storm is moving in. I am at the gate in San Francisco waiting to board my flight to Richmond. As expected, due to the delay of the in-bound aircraft, the scheduled departure of my flight would be delayed as well. That means I was expecting a cascade of delays with all my connections and reservations.  Luckily, I do not have to worry.  Fortunately, I land in Atlanta a bit early than expected (thanks to the tail winds), and automatically the airline system realizes I can make it to an earlier connection for the next leg of my journey. An agent calls me on my cell as soon as I deplane and asks me if I would like to take the earlier flight to Richmond that was just boarding passengers. I say "yes, of course". Within seconds, I get a notification on my smart phone. While I rush to the gate, I fire up the airline application and load my new boarding pass along with the boarding gate information. The gate agents are waiting and expecting me at the gate, since they have been notified of this change. Also, due to my frequent flyer status, I get upgraded. The agent on the phone with me also knows that I will be arriving pretty late at night at my destination and that restaurants will be closed by then. The agent asks me if I would like to have dinner ready when I check in. I cannot believe my luck. Automatically, a message gets sent to the hotel. My pick up time from the airport in Richmond is now rescheduled and with my food preferences (and master data) on file - I have the right menu waiting for me in the hotel room as I check in. Everything automatically syncs up on my calendar. There is an early morning meeting that I have to attend the following day. The front desk agent at the hotel has that information and confirms my ride to the venue, while also letting me know that my wake-up call is scheduled based on my calendar and personal preferences on file...
This, my friends, is 'Customer Experience'...and everything I have mentioned above was doable due to technology.

Shibu and Radical Progress

Continuing the tradition of preceding Larry Ellison's keynote, Infosys CEO S. D. Shibulal opened by celebrating 3 ideas which changed the world: the Wright brothers' flight, the discovery of Penicillin, and Berner-Lee's first web site. In chronological order, this progression came from individual inventors, research institutions, and then corporations. Now corporations are the new centers of innovation and discovery, and they are driving radical progress in 3 ways: product and process innovation, creating new consumer experiences, and business model innovation.

They say the time stops at Oracle OpenWorld (OOW) when a keynote is on! Thousands of folks from our industry (clients, partners, media, analysts, academia) get charged up to know more about what's coming in the ever dynamic IT world, waiting patiently much before the keynote actually starts. While yesterday's keynotes were focused around innovations in hardware, social, cloud that Oracle continues to drive, the focus of Infosys keynote was about Radical Progress. I quickly reconfirmed the meaning of the world radical on my iphone and it said, something that changes the fundamentals. The first thing that I could think of was the world moving from flat to being round by Galileo which was then challenged by the church as well.

Infosys, a named Diamond sponsor, will have a major presence and will premiere its Oracle specific service and technology offerings. One of these capabilities is termed Demand to Deliver (D2D) which has been initially tailored to address supply chain business process and information technology challenges within the high tech and consumer electronics industry. I recently had the opportunity to be interviewed specifically regarding packaged D2D capabilities by Bob Ferrari, the executive editor of Supply Chain Matters blog.

Exadata when it was launched by Oracle a couple of years back initially created a sensation in the market as a hardware platform engineered by Oracle in collaboration with HP for hosting large databases. Later as time progressed and technology matured, Exadata became synonymous as a machine that provided extreme performance and scalability for both OLTP and datawarehouse applications.  Both Oracle developer and DBA community had the impression that Exadata has been mainly developed for hosting databases with large amount of data typically seen in a datawarehouse environment and were not aware if oracle's E-Business suite of applications can be hosted on Exadata. The answer is yes; currently Oracle E-business suite release 11i with 11gR2 database is certified with Oracle Exadata V2 machine. Oracle is currently working on the certification of the E-Business suite release 12 on exadata and the same should be available in the near future.

During Oracle Open World 2011, Oracle announced Siebel Open UI, the new paradigm for enabling a standards based, rich and versatile UI for Siebel applications.

Most of us, practicing CRM professionals, would have experienced the typical CRM program lifecycle. With much fanfare and excitement, an organization embarks upon a business transforming CRM program. The CRM application is a key enabler for this program. For a typical, on-premise COTS implementation, most organizations start with the noble intent of leveraging vanilla capabilities. Over time, more and more features and capabilities are implemented, resulting in a highly complex application that is disliked by the end users.

Supply chain management is a core function of any organization which sells/buys/utilizes products and services. It empowers an organization to work on margin improvisation and improve on working capital. However, organizations in a quest to satisfy customer requirement, may end up piling up stocks, build redundancy in spare parts or consumables. An effective supply chain solution in an organization must address this in every aspect like stock procurement plan, stock rotation, demand planning, fulfillment and warehouse operations.

In this blog, I provide an overview of Oracle supply chain management of Oracle Fusion suite and briefly touch upon the supply chain industry trends. In the next part, I will bring forward our point of view on how Oracle Fusion supply chain management caters to these industry needs.

Essbase is an established multidimensional database platform to build analytical reporting and financial solution. As this analytical solution deals with huge volume of data along with complex and varied retrieval needs of users across an enterprise, the focus has always been to design the cube in order to optimize performance. The product however has its own set of best design principles but when applied in practical situations, we as developers face a choice between following the design principles and meeting the business requirement.

"Issues around performance are a byproduct of customizing any Essbase cube in order to include the dynamics of real world reporting and analysis"

With the introduction of a new appliance from Oracle's Exa Fleet of products, "Exalytics" which comes with the capability of placing the entire Essbase cube in the RAM and reporting over it, the performance gains expected are huge along with improved capability to take care of Parallelism and concurrency.  This vastly claims to reduce data query response time and facilitate faster and timely availability of analytical data, much required in today's dynamic and competitive market where actionable insight is the key to success. Exalytics appliances claim to scan databases at a rate of 200GB/sec.

Globally, organizations use projects to translate strategies into actions and objectives into realities. Most project-intensive companies rely heavily on Project & Portfolio Management (PPM) applications/systems/tools

• To achieve the stated objectives within time, budget & resource constraints
• To maintain control & visibility through the project life cycle, and
• To report accurately on the status & performance of the project

The current release of Oracle Fusion Project Portfolio Management (PPM) 11g Release1 comes with offerings which are well integrated and promises a one-stop shop for project managers. It creates an environment where project managers can have real time access to critical information and exercise proactive control measures without being dependent on other sources.

Today, there is a need for Telco's, which are service-focused, to evolve rapidly in order to keep pace with the constant demand for personalized, real-time service delivery to customers.

In the currently changing telecom business, waiting for information, answers and support is a no-no for customers - they want assistance right away. Employees like Customer Service Reps, Field Agents, etc. also need to feel confident that they have access to a current, relevant knowledge base, so they can perform to the customer's expectations.

Suppose you want to buy a new mobile handset? What are you most likely to do? Go to the web and look for the latest models in the market? There are plenty of sites listing all the models and their features and prices. But is that information really useful? Some phone might be really attractive looking with all the advanced features, but you might not need them at all! And thus, even after all those "research" you end up buying the "wrong" product for yourself, because you got lost in the ocean of information and you were not helped to navigate meaningfully through that information! Just like it happened with Mr. Robert! Mr. Robert is a middle-aged man and senior executive at a manufacturing firm. Most of his workday is spent in meetings and visits at the company's several offices and plants spread across the city and its suburbs. While in transit, he checks his emails and responds to them and also directs his team on their tasks. In the midst of his busy schedule, he does not find time to play the different apps available on his high-end mobile. Nor is he much inclined towards socializing on the web. Thus these features are not of much use although he had paid a hefty sum to buy this mobile phone. Moreover he gets confused with all the heavy applications and finds it difficult to navigate.

Oracle Project Resource Management (PJRM) is a self-service application in Oracle Enterprise applications and provides a solution to effectively manage resource allocation on projects in project centric organizations.  PJRM has been a buzz word in PPM when Oracle started rolling out PPM solutions to its customers. The effective goal of implementing PJRM application is to find the right people for the right projects at the right time which is ultimately achieved by streamlining the demand and supply of resources in an organization. Project Resource Management considers only labor resources and assignment of those resources at the Project level only (not at task level) and is a not time based application.

Performance has been a major pain point for numerous BI deployments. Poor report performance, apart from being a reason for lower adoption rate of BI, has at times caused entire BI projects to fail.

BI developers have adopted multiple strategies like caching, aggregation, materialized views, database tuning etc. for performance enhancement. However, despite these strategies being fairly effective, consistent sub-second response times and speed-of-thought analytics has always been a distant dream.

Anyone who has visited a manufacturing plant or a warehouse knows that there is always a time-lag between physical movement of material and recording the same in the system. The unavoidable reason of this is: material is stored in racks, bins, containers spread across the warehouse or shop-floor but computer terminals on which Oracle forms are opened to enter data are far and few.

...I hope to have that answered as "Not really" by the end of this piece. Let me, however, begin by stating that on a particular day, no matter how much I think I know where enterprise mobility is going, I seem to be falling short by a mile or so of the reality. In my last blog I wrote about how enterprise mobility was beginning to help unshackle the modern day ERP and CRM suites. While the proverbial ink had not even dried on that blog, we witnessed one of the ERP majors deciding to reach its customer's customer through a consumer application that helps end consumers track product recalls on their phones (it is a different story that the primary customer is not fully covered as yet, since challenges around making ERP truly mobile still remain).

It may sound ironic that we live in a world where on one hand the household gadgets are able to not only communicate to each other wirelessly but are also able to work with external entities (read grocery stores, hospitals, service personnel et al) to drive efficiency within the home, but at the same time the corporate systems seem to remain largely ensconced in the physical infrastructure available within the four walls of the workplace. While corporate calendar and email have been able to breach that barrier a long time back, the actual productivity improvements borne out of making the workforce truly mobile are being realized only now that serious effort is being spent to unshackle the biggest behemoth of them all - the corporate ERP.

The importance of social media tools like Facebook, Twitter and YouTube no longer need any emphasis. Perhaps the power of these tools were not known even to the perpetrators of the great Middle East revolutions until they were able to garner support of millions and mobilize the masses which resulted in the end of decades of despotic rule. Social media which acted as the stimuli and later as a catalyst for the movement was very effectively used by the revolutionaries to unify and spread their message between themselves and also to animate support from the international community.
