Migrating OBIEE 11g from Exalytics to Oracle Analytics Server on X8 Servers
When Oracle Business Intelligence Enterprise Edition (OBIEE) 11g and Oracle Database 11g Premier Support and Error Correction Support ended and underlying hardware Oracle Exalytics X5-4 was nearing end-of-support, users electing to continue with these versions were faced with purchasing Extended Support, which would only provide an extra three years of support for an additional yearly increasing fee to stay competitive and retain the freedom to upgrade at their own pace.
