Google’s Project 10 the power of 100

Its an exciting opportunity for all of us to ignite our minds to think on the ways of creating more tools for the betterment of society. Many individuals have very good thoughts but do not know the way to realize them. Now as a boon from the Lord, there’s google that doesn’t understand what IMPOSSIBLE is which can serve our requests.

All that we need to do is to submit our IDEA. It will be scrutinized and the screened ones will be listed for public polling. The best selected 5 IDEAS will be funded by Google for their implementation.

The ideas are to be under these categories:

Categories

* Community
* Opportunity
* Energy
* Environment
* Health
* Education
* Shelter
* Everything else

Selection Criteria

* Reach How many people would this idea affect?
* Depth How deeply are people impacted? How urgent is the need?
* Attainability Can this idea be implemented within a year or two?
* Efficiency How simple and cost-effective is your idea?
* Longevity How long will the idea’s impact last?

October 20th is the last date.

You can submit multiple ideas.

This is for a noble cause to help as many people as possible through out the world.

If your Idea gets selected you will not be getting anything apart from the credit of getting known as the person who suggested it. Don’t expect any financial rewards from Google.

However you lose nothing by dropping your idea for a better society.

Don’t miss this as your simple thought might bring in a big change.

How to Install Oracle Essbase 11.1.1.0 (Fusion Edition) on your PC

Today, I successfully installed the latest Oracle Essbase 11.1.1.0 (Fusion Edition) on my laptop. The process is completely different and easy when compared to that of Essbase 9.3.1

Following are the steps to install the software:
  • Before starting the installation, I strongly recommend you to uninstall the 9.3.1 version existing (If any) on your system . This makes the installation process pretty much smoother by avoiding the port conflicts while Upgrading to 11.1.1.0.
  • Install Oracle XE
    • Do it only if you don't have it already on your system
    • Hyperion Shared Services, required by Essbase Administration Services, can be installed on an Oracle instance.
  • Download the following softwares from edelivery.oracle.com -> Oracle Enterprise Performance Management (11.1.1.0.0) Media Pack for Microsoft Windows (32-bit) to one folder
    1. Oracle Hyperion Enterprise Performance Management System Installer, Fusion Edition Release 11.1.1.0.0
    2. Hyperion Enterprise Performance Management System Foundation Services Release 11.1.1.0.0 Part 1 of 3
    3. Hyperion Enterprise Performance Management System Foundation Services Release 11.1.1.0.0 Part 2 of 3
    4. Hyperion Enterprise Performance Management System Foundation Services Release 11.1.1.0.0 Part 3 of 3
    5. Oracle Essbase Server Release 11.1.1.0.0
    6. Oracle Essbase Client Release 11.1.1.0.0
    7. Oracle Hyperion Financial Reporting, Fusion Edition Release 11.1.1.0.0
  • All the above software will be in individual ZIP files.
  • Unzip all the ZIP files from 1-7 in the same order and to the same location (say, folder \download_location)
    • When the Softwares from 2-7 are unzipped, it'll create a folder with same name "\assemblies". Just override the existing folder.
  • Now,  to install and Configure EPM System products:
    1. Choose a method:
      • (Windows) Double-click installTool.cmd in the root directory to which you extracted the EPM System Installer files.
      • (Windows) From a Windows console, change to the root directory to which you extracted the EPM System Installer files and enter installTool.cmd -console.EPM System Installer launches.
    2. EPM System Installer launches. Review and complete each page of EPM System Installer, clicking Next to move to the next page.
    3. When installation is complete, click Configure to configure the products using EPM System Configurator, or click Finish to close EPM System Installer.
    4. References: http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E12825_01/epm.111/epm_install/frameset.htm?launch.html
  • How to Start and Stop EPM System Products services:
    • EPM System Installer installs a single start script in HYPERION_HOME/products/bin, called "start.bat". Running the single start script on a machine in your EPM System deployment starts all EPM System services installed on that machine.
    • A single stop script, "stop.bat" is also installed in HYPERION_HOME/products/bin. Running the stop script on a machine in your EPM System deployment stops all EPM System products on that machine.
  • Once we start the services, we can launch the EPM Products by launching the applications from Start -> Oracle EPM Products -> (Application).
We are done!!! :-)
