Oracle has 2 OLAP engines.
1) Oracle OLAP option — lives in database, is nice tool, very similar to size limitations of Transfomer, but much more flexible when it comes to modeling. I’d write a separate post about it if you’re interested
2) Oracle Essbase — an ex-Hyperion MOLAP-engine, very expensive and very performant. I’ve built billion non-zero cells cubes in it with ease and seen it scale very good on concurrent analytical sessions

Security in Cognos BI and Oracle BI? I’ve wrote about some troubles I’ve encountered while integrating Oracle BI and Active Directory here. All in all, it’s the same limiting ‘where clause’, but I’d prefer Cognos.

Cognos in Transformer has "limitation" with 2 GB pre one file. Does Oracle has same problem? And second question how is security compare to Cognos? Marek How about OLAP?
Cognos in Transformer has “limitation” with 2 GB pre one file. Does Oracle has same problem?
And second question how is security compare to Cognos?
