I've just spent the last week reading this impressive book by Adrian Ward, Christian Screen and Haroun Khan. Having worked professionally with two of these guys, I can vouch for their depth of knowledge and commitment to doing a professional job.
OBIEE 11g is a big topic, so its an enormous achievement to pull together such a comprehensive review of the software. The book is written in an approachable, conversational style that should really encourage newcomers to the already strong OBIEE development community.
The core architectural topics (BI Server, BI Presentation Server) are handled thoroughly, making them easy to understand and fun; while a good proportion of the book is spent illuminating readers of the significant changes in architecture between 10g and 11g.
If you're new to this topic, this is a great read. It will inform your developers, help your Business Analysts really sell the capabilities of the software, improve your deployments and make for a smooth transition to comprehensive business intelligence suite.
Get involved with the informative appendix on 'Useful Resources'.
A great job guys. Keep up the good work.
