How to request a Cognos Production Environments

  • 1.  How to request a Cognos Production Environments

    Posted Wed September 19, 2018 05:31 AM
    Hello team:

    Perhaps you could guide me about the process to follow.
    My team has multiple Watson  dashboard and know we are planning to migrate them into Cognos.

    So, the questions are:
    .- How do I require a professional account (without cost).?
    .- How do I require the creation of a new Cognos Analytics environment for my team?
    I tested with a trial account. It was good for some initial tests, but it has a lot of limitations.
    Now ,we need a professional environment where around 200 users can connect and work with the data.
    Thanks in advance for any help about this topic.

    Hi Julio,

    I am also interested to know the steps you did with your migration. Did you use the onboarding process available in the BACC community?

    Thank you so much,

    Thank you Julio. This was a really big help. A couple of quick questions:

    1. How long did it take for your service catalog request to be approved, and was there anyone that you contacted to expedite the request?
    2. I went to the CA link on slide 10 (https://zcogcad.boulder.ibm.com/transform/cognitive/bi/?perspective=home). According to the information under the help button (?/About) it is version 11.0.13.1 (LTS). The free trial version is 11.1 R1, which seems to have more capabilities. Do you know which version you now have after your Service Catalog request was approved?

    Thank you

    Hello Kevin:
    About your questions:
    1) How long did it take for your service catalog request to be approved, and was there anyone that you contacted to expedite the request?
    I took more or less 1 week.
    You could contact the Analytics Help System (https://ahs.w3ibm.mybluemix.net/customer) to get some additional information about your request status.

    2) Do you know which version you now have after your Service Catalog request was approved?
    You will have IBM Cognos Analytics 11.0.13.1 (LTS) version. Cognos team mentioned some time ago that they will complete the upgrade to 11.1 version sometime during 2019 and that it would be transparent for users. For more details about upgrade calendar please contact Analytics Help System.
