About This Document
This document presents recommended steps to build a typical Oracle Essbase development
environment on a single server running Microsoft Windows. This deployment is not intended
for use in a production environment. A typical Essbase development environment comprises
the following Oracle Enterprise Performance Management System components:

l Oracle Essbase Studio
l Oracle Smart View for Office
l Oracle Essbase Administration Services
