Chapter 12. Improving Performance

So far in this book, you have installed your system, set up your database sources, created dashboards, and have monitored the usage. This is not the time to sit back and relax! You have installed OBIEE on a machine with the suitable levels of CPU, disk speed, and RAM, but is your system actually performing well?

In this chapter, we will learn some common techniques to reduce common bottlenecks that can exist in the process of delivering dashboards and reports to the users. We will look across the whole system, defining poor performance and where required, take steps to improve the performance.
