Oracle updates for the 25.07 patch just recently came out and there are a couple of great features for Data Integration in the mix this month.

First, a new application role called “Data Integration – Administrator” is rolling out. This access role will grant a user access to all activities in Data Integration. This means a user will be able to create/manage integrations, execute and monitor pipelines, and perform data and metadata extraction and transformation from on-premises sources using the EPM Integration Agent. The new role is a fantastic addition to allow a user to manage your integrations without giving them Service Administrator permissions on the rest of application. This applies to pretty much all EPM business processes including ARC, EPCM, FCC, Planning, PCM, and Tax Reporting.

The second update is the addition of the Smart Split feature in Pipeline. Basically, Essbase has a governor and it gets mad when you try to push too much data into it. The solution up to now has been to split a large volume data integration into multiple smaller slices of data to get around the limit. Going forward, we can set up a large integration like normal with one big data load rule. Then, in Pipeline we can add an “Integration with Smart Split” job which will split the files for us based on the Split Dimension specified. This will allow the system to bypass the governor to submit smaller data slices without requiring the creation of multiple integrations. Smart Split will be available in EPCM, FCC, Planning, and Tax Reporting
