Oracle Data Miner 11gR2 available for download

It has been awhile since my last posting and decided to catch up by posting a couple of things I have been working on lately.

One of them is a topic which I am passionate about: Data Mining. A few weeks ago while at Boston I had the opportunity to visit an old friend of mine Charlie Berger (Senior Director PM Oracle Data Mining) in the Oracle office at Burlington.

 We had a short but nice conversation on the new release of ODM 11gR2. At the time of our conversation Oracle was getting ready to release it in OTN and it just made it last Tuesday Feb 22.
ODM 11gR2 is now part of SQLDeveloper ( currently in SQLDevelopers Early Adopters 3)

 and as such you need to download SQLDevelopers EA3 from this link:

Well the new good feature is that it now provides a graphical workflow to easily define the data flow and processes until final results for analysis are obtained. Here a screenshot of my first exercise with this tool.

It is really fantastic. This new GUI has long been waited for the Oracle Data Mining community.
We will post soon how Oracle Data Miner can be integrated with OBIEE to produce actionable analytical results. Stay tuned!
