Groovy is an awesome development and scripting language that works with, plays with, and can very much resemble Java. It was introduced to KScopers by this presenter back in ‘011 in the session titled “Scripting the JAPI: The Grooviest Thing Ever to Happen to Essbase”. Now Groovy is back and more integrated into the EPM world than ever. Planning, Calculation Manager, and good ‘ol Essbase now have Groovy-enabled design and admin features built right in! In this session you will hear direct from Oracle and “The Groovy Guy” what these cutting-edge features are and how to take advantage of them.
