Migration scenarios covered in this Guide

With Oracle Analytics Cloud on Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (Gen 1), you can deploy services with several different feature sets:

  • Data Visualization
  • Business Intelligence (includes Data Visualization)
  • Essbase

This Guide only describes how to migrate services deployed with Data Visualization or Business Intelligence.

Not covered in this Guide

This Guide doesn’t describe how to migrate Oracle Analytics Cloud instances deployed with the Essbase feature set or non-Oracle Analytics Cloud artifacts, such as associated databases, security configuration, and so on. If required, you must migrate non-Oracle Analytics Cloud artifacts separately or re-create them in your Oracle Analytics Server environment.

This Guide assumes you subscribe to Oracle Analytics Cloud with Universal Credits. The instructions in this guide don't apply if you have a non-metered, user-based subscription (Oracle Analytics Cloud Subscription).
