What is Oracle BAM?

Oracle Business Activity Monitoring (Oracle BAM) gives business users the ability to create their own dashboards and monitor their business services and processes in the enterprise. Oracle BAM supports both "active" real-time, changing dashboards that update without having to refresh the browser and also "tactical" dashboards that allow a user to change parameters to see a new perspective of the data without having to develop a database query.
