Oracle Workspace Manager What-If Analysis
These three samples illustrate how Workspace Manager can create variations
on a common dataset to evaluate choices and determine the best alternative.
A separate workspace is created for each choice, changes are made to the
data and analyzed without affecting the production data. The best choice
can be merged with the production data.
Workspace Manager provides a transactionally consistent view of all the
data in the database. This means a user in a workspace sees the latest
version of any data changed in the workspace as well as unchanged data
in parent workspace(s). Users outside the workspace do not see the changed
data until it is merged with the production data..
