    The first step is probably to find out exactly what tools you need / want to install ...

    OBIEE 11gR2 doesn't exist, ODI is a tool with many version and so you better define which version you need.

    Data warehouse is a concept and not a tool, so you can't install a data warehouse but you can install a database on which to implement your data warehouse.

    If you read the official doc you find all the details for the install (the steps), if you google these tools you also find tons of blog posts on how to install them.

    The sequence? A database first, then not really important as OBIEE and ODI are different tools not working together.

    Thanks @Gianni Ceresa.

    This means that I have to install RDBMS 11gR2 then OBIEE and ODI .

    To implement the Data Warehouse do i need to install Data warehouse builder ??

  • Your sequence is not fine (you will be able to install following it).

    What do you mean by "implement the Data Warehouse" ?

    As I said a data warehouse is a concept and not a tool, wikipedia define it as "... DWs are central repositories of integrated data from one or more disparate sources ...".

    So do you need a tool to setup a DW? Not really, plain SQL by hand can do it as a DW is a bunch of tables.

    Or are you maybe looking at Oracle Business Intelligence Applications  ? This is a packaged solution with OBIEE, ODI, a DW model, prebuilt RPD and analysis and dashboards.

    But OBIA has it's own documentation and forum (Business Intelligence Applications ).

    I suspect OBIA is what's being asked for ... I strongly recommend the enlistment of a partner (especially given the lack of detail and the general knowledge conveyed in the question) ... OBIA is too expensive to risk it on an inexperienced installer / 'configurer'.
