Kscope13 Presentation: HFM, Planning and Essbase with a Side of DRM

Are you considering an implementation of HFM, Planning, Essbase, and DRM? This presentation will cover the successful implementation of the Oracle EPM Suite implemented at McAfee. Hear first-hand from the client, not just the consultants, about what to expect when implementing the Oracle EPM stack in a complex international environment. Data moves smoothly around from SAP to HFM, from HFM to Planning, and from Planning to Essbase. Meanwhile, all of the meta-data for all of the applications regardless of technology is managed in DRM. If you are considering implementing Oracle EPM or you are already in the process, this presentation will be worth your while.
