One customer recently asked if we could supply documentation and scripts to remove all the E-Business Suite objects from their database leaving them with an empty database. After a few questions, it became apparent they were concerned about performance and a third party consulting organisation had advised the best solution to performance problems was to export and then import the whole database. Whilst it’s true an export/import might solve performance problems, there are...

Securing the Oracle E-Business Suite includes protecting the underlying E-Business data in production and non-production databases. While steps can be taken to provide a secure configuration to limit EBS access, a better approach to protecting non-production data is simply to scramble (mask) the data in the non-production copy. The Oracle E-Business Suite Template for Data Masking Pack can be used in situations where confidential or regulated data needs to be shared with...
