Which four of the following activities can be performed by the administrator in Shared Services?
Correct Answer: A,B,C,E
Explanation/Reference:
Essbase Studio is a component of Oracle Essbase. Essbase Studio requires Hyperion Shared Services for user management and security.
Shared Services provides a single sign-on (SSO) service, not only for Essbase and its components, but for all Oracle Enterprise Performance Management System products. SSO promotes an uninterrupted workflow when moving between Essbase components and/or Oracle Enterprise Performance Management System products. Shared Services can be linked with your existing corporate repository-for example, a Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP) server to authenticate users (B). Administrators can create user roles and groups (A) to define which products end users can use and the level of access they have to the product. Together, user authentication and role-based authorization provide a secure environment (E).
Shared Services is part of Oracle Hyperion Foundation Services, which ships with Oracle Essbase. It is required for managing users in Essbase Studio.
