2 Accelerate Your Path to the Cloud As business critical applications increasingly move to the Cloud, with applications such as Oracle Planning and Budgeting Cloud Service (Oracle PBCS), there is a need to easily Migrate existing applications to the Cloud, and then reduce the time and effort required to upload data and metadata to those applications. Qubix CloudBridge is designed to solve these key problems. Gain full data integration between your on premise environment and your Cloud applications with Qubix CloudBridge. This data agnostic tool provides a user-driven, seamless ability to move data from on premise to multiple Cloud applications, including multiple Oracle PBCS, reducing the costs and complexity introduced by alternative approaches. Qubix CloudBridge is also designed to accelerate your path to the Cloud with a wizard driven approach to cloning existing Oracle Hyperion Essbase and Planning applications so that you can lift & shift them to the Cloud with ease and confidence. Adopting the Cloud can lower the total cost of ownership of a solution, Qubix CloudBridge accelerates these potential savings. Designed by Qubix: Qubix CloudBridge 1

3 How Does Qubix CloudBridge Work? Qubix CloudBridge is deployed inside the firewall on a Microsoft Windows server and accessed via a Web Browser. Once you provide Qubix CloudBridge with the appropriate security and access permissions, the server will connect to various on-premise applications, such as Oracle GL, Essbase and Hyperion Planning, in addition to Oracle Planning Budgeting Cloud Service. Qubix CloudBridge understands how Oracle organises and formats various types of data and key application structures such as dimensions and hierarchies. Using a proprietary approach - our secret sauce - Qubix CloudBridge can be used to not just seamlessly move data from on-premise to the Cloud, but it can also be used to perform key application management tasks such as managing dimensions and hierarchies in an easier-to-do way than currently possible. Finally, Qubix CloudBridge has also been designed to solve the problem of cloning or migrating existing Oracle Hyperion Essbase and Planning applications in a faster and easier fashion than currently possible. The Qubix CloudBridge wizard maps existing applications, prepares data, structures, settings etc. ready for a rapid life & shift to the Cloud. This removes the need for additional, typically complex and expensive software, and for additional implementation consultancy to rebuilding applications. Data Integration Integrate data between on premise applications and the Oracle Planning Budgeting Cloud Service. Our data agnostic tool will take source data from multiple source applications, including SQL, ERP or Business Intelligence environments. Data flows are automatic, or user triggered, ensuring integrity and confidence in data across the enterprise. Data Management Qubix CloudBridge s simple user interface provides a wizard walkthrough of loading data and metadata seamlessly. Data is validated before it is transmitted securely to the Cloud and a full audit trail is provided to ensure confidence in the data integrity. The process of transferring data is triggered when new data is available to reduce manual intervention and increase the efficiency of the process. Key Features: Guided workflows Automated data loading and mapping Pre-packaged system adapters Full Support for Standard file formats, such as CSV Data Validation and error checking Works with multiple cloud applications 2

4 Lift and Shift Designed to help move existing Oracle Essbase and Hyperion Planning applications to the Cloud, the Qubix CloudBridge application can clone existing applications and transform them into a format ready for a rapid lift & shift to the Cloud. Historical data can also be loaded, thus removing the need for additional complex and expensive software, or for additional lengthy implementation consultancy to rebuild applications in the Cloud. Dimension Management When your business changes, your applications need to reflect those changes, for example if you acquire a business, introduce a new region, or add a product line. Qubix CloudBridge enables business users to create and edit application dimensions via a drag-and-drop interface. We do this in a smart way so that your live application doesn t have to be shut down while you make your changes. Existing approaches to solve this problem require multiple steps and administration permissions that most businesses prefer not to share. Qubix CloudBridge dimension management is an easier way to adjust dimensions, modify hierarchies and define different member attributes with a simple-to-do drag and drop user experience. Key Features: Dimension Management Hierarchy management Clone existing Essbase and Hyperion Planning applications High-grade security Full audit trails Easy-to-do design System Requirements: Designed for Business Users Reduce or eliminate reliance on IT and place the power back into the hands of the user. With systems increasingly being controlled departmentally, both on premise and cloud based, there is a real need for user friendly easy-to-do tools that finance users can own. Today s alternatives to Qubix CloudBridge are expensive and complex, Qubix CloudBridge makes it easier to get things done, reduces the time and effort to achieve key outcomes, and increases user adoption and confidence. Security First The Qubix CloudBridge application requires access to your existing data and Oracle Cloud applications that you control. The application is designed to sit behind your firewall, and data is transferred to the Cloud using high-grade 128bit encryption. Qubix CloudBridge require the following for full capability: Windows Server 2008 or above Oracle Database 11g or Microsoft SQL Server 2005 and above Browser support: Windows Explorer 11, all versions of Google Chrome, Apple Safari and Mozilla Firefox 3
