Oracle DB Vault allows security administrators to protect a database from privileged account access to application data. Database objects can be placed in protected realms, which can be accessed only if a specific set of conditions are met. Database Vault 10gR2 was certified last year with Oracle E-Business Suite. We're pleased to announce that the latest Database Vault 11gR1 Version 11.1.0.7 is now certified with E-Business Suite Release 11i and 12. You can now enable...

This option was recently certified with Oracle E-Business Suite Release...

For reasons mysterious to me, world governments apparently like to change their timezones on a regular basis. If your E-Business Suite Release 11i or 12 environment has been configured to support Daylight Saving Time (DST) or international time zones, it's important that you keep your timezone definition files up-to-date. They were last changed in February 2009, and they've been updated once again: DSTv11 is now available and certified with the E-Business Suite. Is Your...

[Jul 6, 2009 Update: Database version for 12.0.4 Rapid install was 10.2.0.3, not 10.2.0.4. Table corrected now. A reader recently asked where she could find a summary of the E-Business Suite Release 12 technology stack components for different R12 releases. As it turns out, there's a long answer to this deceptively-simple question. This level of information is spread in a variety of release-specific Notes, making it tricky to compare which components were delivered as part...

I have yet to encounter a database that ever got smaller. Like waistlines, all databases seem destined to increase in size. The E-Business Suite is no exception: as we add more product capabilities and your business grows, so do your Apps databases. Oracle-supplied solutions to managing Applications database size fall into two categories: data growth control methods and data management methods. Growth Control Methods Archiving and purging Database compression Data...
