For those not familiar with Noetix views, they have historically been used as a supplement to Discoverer. The views are marketed as a mechanism to access E-Business Suite data easier through simpler data element naming and other functionality. Any BI tool could use the views into the E-Business Suite data though, it doesn’t have to be Discoverer. Personally, I don’t have any intimate experience using Noetix views, but I have heard positive reports in the past. Oracle doesn’t provide any Federal-specific views as part of the Discoverer Apps views (Discoverer users utilize a standard Federal Administrator Business Area that simply mirrors the FV schema and users can leverage the standard Apps views for other modules, but no specific Federal views), so this can fill a bit of void there.
We’re probably all aware of the strong push from Oracle to move toward the OBIEE architecture for BI and with new Federal OBIEE content soon to be released, there’s some competition here. Although, these two architectures are definitely different.
