Oracle Database 11g Installation – Windows 64 bit

This is an attempt to share all the tasks involved in installing Oracle Business Intelligence 11.1.1.6.0 software 'Simple Install'.  

The installation process which I would like to blog about has following three sections.

• Oracle Database 11g Installation – Windows 64 bit
• Repository Creation Utility (RCU) Execution

I hope this step by step by guide might help as a reference during your installation journey. In this blog I am covering the Oracle Database 11g installation on Windows 64 bit. I am planning to cover the RCU Execution and OBIEE 11.1.1.6.0 in future blogs.
