Essbase 21c: Ready – Set – Go!, Karen Zubetz, Oracle Corporation
1:00 – 2:00 p.m. EST
Essbase 21c is generally available! The long wait is over, and Essbase 21c is released for the on-premises customer base, with a Marketplace (OCI) release following in calendar Q1_2021. All customers should be planning their migration to this latest release, and there are many benefits to discuss! 11.1.2.4 customers will learn about the new Essbase platform and its features. In addition, we will discuss how we have eased your migration by offering EAS "lite" and Shared Services Security management. Customers on OCI will hear about the latest cloud infrastructure developments and Essbase enhancements. We will cover a brief roadmap of 21c uptake in the EPM product suite and non-Linux platform support for 21c Essbase.

Our Favorite New Essbase Features Tim Tow and 
Tim Faitsch, Applied OLAP
3:15 – 4:00 p.m. EST
How can we choose our favorite new feature? We couldn't, so we picked three. Join Tim Tow and Tim Faitsch as they discuss and demonstrate their favorite new Essbase features. They'll show off Sandbox Dimensions, Shadow Cubes, and the MDX Insert statement.
CPE session, Fulfill the True Potential of Essbase with Hybrid Mode and Cube Designer Tim German, Qubix
4:05 – 5:05 p.m. EST
Believe it or not, Hybrid Mode in Essbase—which brings together the rich, intuitive calculation capability of Block Storage and the dynamic aggregation capability of Aggregate Storage—is almost seven years old! But in earlier on-premises versions, Hybrid limitations such as unsupported calculation functions sometimes made it difficult for practitioners to take full advantage. In Essbase 21c, we have "full coverage" Hybrid Mode. We also have brand new Cube Designer tools (the Baseline and Solve Order utilities) that help to document performance parameters, find the optimal balance between calculation and query speed, and catch potential performance problems. In this session, we'll review the principles of Hybrid Mode and learn how Cube Designer can help with Hybrid optimization.
