EPM v11.1.2 is availabe



EPM v11.1.2 has been released recently and is a major release of the EPM suite. From a Technical persepctive the release offers some new and interesting changes.

 

  • Windows 2008 support
  • Internet Explorer 8 support
  • SQL 2008 support
  • Weblogic replaces Tomcat as the embedded Java Application Server
  • Oracle HTTP Server replaces Apache as the embedded Web Server
  • OpenLDAP has been removed from Shared Services
  • Foundation Services have been consolidated
  • Design Principles for building environments have changed

 

As a consequence of all of these changes, there are also enhanced requirements surrounding Memory and CPU requirements for machines running the EPM Suite.

 

At this point in time, while the technical and functional enhancements are enticing, we are advising waiting for the planned release of SP1 around August before considering this release for anything except pure development use.
