Data and Reporting Services: BrioQuery and Oracle Client
Installation for Windows PC Users

 

 

BrioQuery is a reporting tool that allows you to access data in SQL databases (such as the MIT Data Warehouse) for analysis, decision-making, reporting, and other purposes. BrioQuery 6 features a new interface, introduces new reporting capabilities, has eliminated the Detail report, and changed to JavaScript for computed items.

BrioQuery software for Windows requires an Oracle Client Software with a version newer than Oracle 7. Oracle Client Software is enterprise middleware that allows third party applications, such as BrioQuery, to connect to Oracle databases.

Note: Installing Oracle 9i Client on top of existing Oracle 7 Client is not supported on Windows desktops. Oracle 7 must be uninstalled first. Make sure you uninstall older version of Oracle 7 Client first, and then install Oracle 9i Client.
