Hyperion

 

Hyperion is a web-based query tool for databases.  Hyperion is not a database.  It does not contain information on its own.  It is a tool to query, analyze, and build reports and charts on data that exists in databases.

There are several databases at Binghamton University that staff may be using in conjunction with Hyperion.   Users could use Hyperion with other databases as well.

Common databases that use Hyperion at Binghamton University include: 

• Oracle – financial and human resources information
• BProd – DARS, ID Cards
• BURD – the data warehouse (student and course information through Summer of 2008)
• ODS – Operational Data Store (Banner data that is refreshed nightly)
