In this chapter, we explored the System Management tools required to administer the core components of the Oracle BI environment.

We discussed each main section of the Weblogic Server Administration and the Enterprise Management consoles. We provided insight and an example on how the application interfaces (APIs) can interface with Oracle BI to manage the environment programmatically. Finally, we took a look at deploying the core Oracle BI metadata components, migrating security, and monitoring performance. These management concepts should have provided you with an above average understanding of how to administer your Oracle BI environment and speculate on future activities you may need to facilitate within your organization. Weblogic Server and Weblogic Scripting is a large subject in its own right, and therefore we encourage you to undertake further reading. There are several books from Packt Publishing covering WebLogic, for example, Getting Started with Oracle Weblogic Server 12c Developer Guide, which you can get from https://www.packtpub.com.
