The OCDM Platform

Single-Vendor Solution Package

OCDM is a startup kit for implementing a business intelligence solution for the telecommunications industry, including Wireless, Fixed Line (Wired), Cable Services, Internet & Data Services, and Broadband segments. OCDM:

  • Provides intelligent insight into detailed carriers and market data
  • Facilitates rapid implementation
  • Enables powerful analysis through Oracle Data Warehouse (DW) and Business Intelligence (BI) technology
  • Delivers TMF-SID standard aligned logical and physical data model

OCDM is designed and pre-tuned for Oracle data warehouses, including the Oracle Exadata Storage option. With pre-built data mining and On-line Analytical Processing (OLAP) models, it provides you with industry-specific metrics and insights that you can act on immediately to improve your bottom line.

OCDM consists of enterprise data warehouse logical and physical components:

  • Base Layer provides:
    • Data in 3rd normal form, including transaction detail storage
    • Logical and physical models
  • Analytic Layer provides:
    • Dimensional models (both ROLAP and OLAP) that:
      • Describe the industry specific structure of communications business areas
      • Provide focused measures and key performance indicators (KPIs) for the telecommunications industry.
      • Enable fast aggregation of base data to enable easy analysis of business performance (and in general any KPI) at any level of detail.
    • Data mining objects that:
      • Enable statistical analysis of transactions
      • Can identify critical information that may be hidden in your data, providing for both supervised and unsupervised learning
  • Reporting layer provides:
    • Pre-built, industry-specific reports
    • Pre-built dashboards for summary information, or as a lauching pad for further analysis

Taking Advantage of Oracle DW technology

Oracle database includes relational, multidimensional, and data mining technologies in a single database platform. Because the data is not distributed across hundreds of spreadsheets or stored in a separate multidimensional database, it provides a single source of truth for the accelerator's integrated business intelligence solution, simplifying deployment, and reducing complexity and managements costs.

OCDM leverages all the Oracle database options in a business context where it makes the most sense, optimizing performance wherever possible. The OCDM design:

  • Provides a "Data-Warehouse-in-a-box", adapted to Oracle technology, and specific to telecommunication businesses
  • Enables the system to grow right along with future business growth
  • Includes a pre-tuned configuration with all performance and optimization issues solved upfront

Single-Vendor Solution

Oracle DW for Communications offers a single-vendor solution package that is tightly integrated with the business intelligence platform. These BI solution offerings take advantage of Oracle's scalability and reliability, using Oracle's familiar optimization, parallelism, and performance engineering within the database.
