This document was compiled at the request of the Auchan Directorate in order to give a general idea of ​​​​the structure of the documentation for the Auchan business intelligence system developed by Navitek. The document can be used as a reference for easy navigation through the documentation.

The document includes the following chapters:

  1. General information about the system. Goals and purpose
  2. The history of the development of the system. Main stages
  3. Current system usage statistics

General information about the system.

IN modern world data is a key asset of a company. Company activity data is generated by various participants production activities. The analysis and use of accumulated data is of exceptional value.

Auchan's BI system is designed to provide users with access to analytics based on accumulated data in order to make decisions. The system consists of kernel components and applications. System core components are designed to solve the following tasks

  1. Collection of structured and unstructured data on schedule and online from various heterogeneous information systems
  2. Long-term storage of accumulated data in storage and data marts
  3. Data transformations according to highly customizable rules, taking into account business requirements
  4. Organization of required interfaces (APIs) for visual data visualization applications
  5. Ensuring secure user and system access to data warehouses and data marts

The BI system also includes data access applications. Applications use the core components of the BI system to organize secure, fast and reliable access for end users to the accumulated array of information through standard system interfaces. Applications are the window through which users look at data and analytics. All applications that work with the BI system are divided into two broad categories.

  1. Standard applications developed by our company
  2. Third Party Applications Developed by External Companies

The history of the development of the system. Main stages

The history of the development of the business intelligence system of Auchan has 10 years and includes several periods

  1. Period 2006-2008. The beginning of the development of the system. Collection of sales data. Implementation in stores, CPH, Marketing BI applications Performance and Publisher and basic reports
  2. Period 2009-2011. The formation of the system. Collection of advanced data on commerce processes for stores and CSPs, creation of Needs and Extranet applications. Establish data quality services and processes
  3. Period 2012-2014. System improvement. Implementation of a modern virtual platform to ensure the required availability indicators in connection with the growth of the company. Implementation of master data control processes (BPM Workflow) based on modern solution Adobe Livecycle BPM. Creation of an international BI EE solution and the beginning of its implementation in Ukraine and Romania
  4. Period 2015-2016. Further expansion of data volumes due to indicators of commerce, HR and finance. implementations modern system calculation of indicators based on business rules - Margin Management / Rupture applications. Implementation of the perfect Oracle Exadata analytics platform. The beginning of the implementation of the Big Data concept - streaming data on sales and commerce indicators.

It is important to note that the development of the BI system in the initial periods of 2006-2012 was largely determined by the balance of opportunities to purchase licensed technologies and the requirements for integrating systems and users. Thus, prior to entering into the 2012 Oracle BI Unlimited Agreement, Auchan made extensive use of applications and modules created by our company in order to reduce the cost of ownership of the system. The list of BI software components, as well as the vendors of this software, is given in the table at the end of this document.

System structure. The main components of the system core

As mentioned above, the main components of the BI system are the system core and applications. The core of the BI system provides a number of basic services for applications. Below is a brief overview of the components of the core system, and links to detailed documentation for each component. The core of the BI system consists of:

Figure 2: System Core Components

The composition of subsystems of the Auchan-Russia BI core can be studied

Administration, planning and execution subsystems.

This subsystem is responsible for planning and completing all tasks in the BI system. Including data processing tasks, report preparation, data upload tasks. The subsystem has a central repository, is integrated with a visual admin console, and also provides an extended API.

Detailed information on the module can be obtained

The register of administrative tasks can be obtained

Authentication, authorization and audit subsystems

This subsystem is responsible for authenticating users in central directories and issuing authorization to perform tasks and access to system functions, as well as a complete audit of user actions. The subsystem has a central repository, is integrated with a visual administrator console, and also provides an extended API

  1. Description of the security model can be downloaded
  2. You can see the architecture of the solution

Data storage and aggregation subsystems

This subsystem is an instance of the Oracle database. The Oracle database was chosen by Auchan as a standard and is used to structure and store information. A separate Oracle database module is used to build aggregative data marts. The subsystem provides access to stored information through standard Oracle OCI APIs.

  1. Oracle Database User Manual can be downloaded
  2. Instructions for using the Oracle aggregation module can be downloaded
  3. Information on setting up and using OLAP at Auchan can be viewed
  4. The register of data aggregation operations can be viewed

Data loading and transformation subsystems

This subsystem is a complex environment consisting of modules of employees for performing data processing tasks. The subsystem meets all modern requirements and allows you to perform batch and operational (online) integration and data transformation

The BI system is an open system, so it can use any data transformation modules of arbitrary vendors. In order to reduce cost and increase reliability, only 4 types of transformation modules are currently used. Each module of the system, in turn, has environments for designing processes, executing and configuring transformation processes.

Below is a list of module types and their short descriptions.

  1. Oracle Warehouse Builder is Oracle's 2000 generation batch integration module. The documentation for the module is available
  2. Oracle Data Integrator Module - Oracle 2010 and later batch integration module. The documentation for the module is available
  3. Oracle Golden Gate module is Oracle 2010 and later online integration module. The documentation for the module is available
  4. The JAPI module is a batch integration module from Navitek. The documentation for the module is available
  5. A registry of all data integration tasks is available
  6. Description of SOA/MFT modules and their API can be viewed

Subsystem of modeling and indicator catalog

This subsystem is fairly new in the BI system. The subsystem solves the problem of building a federated catalog of indicators, as well as providing a standard API for Oracle report design tools such as Oracle Visual Analyzer and Oracle Dashboards. The catalog of indicators is available in the subsystem in a visual form. The subsystem appeared recently due to the high cost of the license of this component. Only thanks to the conclusion of the ULA agreement, it became possible to simulate the catalog of indicators in this system
