Exploring the work involved in setting up Oracle DRM to support the maintenance and distribution of multidimensional maps to subscribing systems so that the analytical and reporting applications can speak the same data language without requiring onerous administration costs.

While the primary objective of most DRM implementations is to establish a controlled and efficient maintenance model for sending metadata to subscribing applications, more DRM customers are realizing the tool’s potential to support with the alignment and publication of data maps. Mappings in DRM can be implemented through the familiar context of hierarchies and properties.
