Knowledge Share System (KSS) Introduction to Oracle Designer HKSS Architecture and components Demo - HKSS and generation of a web

server module from designer Q & A


Need for a KSSNeed for a KSS

Similar situations, similar problems Avoid re-inventing the wheel Save time and money Human turnaround Jumpstart for new users Can help to build metrics Custom build to your requirements


What is a KSSWhat is a KSS

A central repository of information Keep track of problems and solutions Evolves over a period of time


Our GoalsOur Goals

Quick, easy access to enter information retrieve information from anywhere

Easy to use - no training needed Accessible by developers, DBAs, clients Develop quickly, but systematically Flexible, Extensible


Why Oracle DesignerWhy Oracle Designer

Complete integrated life cycle CASE tool Supports a variety of methodologies including

classical SDLC, RAD, prototyping etc. Supports generation for a variety of

applications Strong support for modeling System documentation Good Oracle skills in-house


Support for Various PhasesSupport for Various Phases

Analysis - support for logical models Design - support for physical database design

and application design Development - support for SQL DDL and

application code generation Deployment - support for multiple schemas,

instances and databases Variety of QA and other reports


Designer RepositoryDesigner Repository

Designer adopts a repository driven approach Repository - most important part of Designer A schema in Oracle database Store for all meta-data Multi user capability


Analysis ToolsAnalysis Tools
