How to Install and Configure an Oracle Mart

In the previous versions, erwin DM connected to the Mart database through the database client software. Now, the application connects to the Mart database through a web server. The database client software is no longer required. This tutorial describes how System Administrators install and configure an Oracle Mart.

The Mart comprises the following components:

Database

Stores the user data for the Workgroup Edition. You can use an Oracle 12c R2, 18c, 19c, or 21c database for the Mart database. You can also use a pluggable database. You must use a new database and not an existing database that was created for an older version of the data modeling tool.

Applications

Includes a web-based component named erwin Mart Portal that helps you manage the Mart through a web console.

Web server

Hosts erwin Mart Portal. You can use a web server of your choice. If you have not installed a web server, use the erwin Mart Portal option and install Tomcat.
