I went through the net but couldn't clearly find out the following details.
Is Oracle ATG e-commerce is Open Source or Commercial?
Does it supports MySQL database?
Thanks.
Yes, Oracle ATG Commerce (now only known as Oracle Commerce) is a commercial software. Please note that release 11.3 was the last planned release of the product and Oracle will start phasing it out after that. Oracle is now promoting the cloud version of this product known simply as Oracle Commerce Cloud.
Yes, MySQL is supported by Oracle Commerce.
Oracle ATG is a commercial software. For development purposes you can use it for free having downloads from https://edelivery.oracle.com/
It does support mysql database and it comes as a package (included along with installation). But Oracle highly recommends not to use it for production purposes. Oracle, MSSQL or DB2 are suggested for production.
ORACLE ATG is an enterprise Ecommerce commercial solution. Yes, various back-end databases are supported in ATG including MySQL.

I'm making this report about the migration of oracle forms and reports 6i to another technology (Oracle forms & report 12c Or Oracle APEX), and i'm making this comparative table of apex and oracles forms 12c of these points:
Prerequisites
Cost
Productivity
ease of use
Speed
Maintenance
Deployment
Security
Scalability
Support
Community
and i would like the opinion of someone who has worked with both or at least with one of them and give me hand with this. Any help would be appreciated.
Answered here on SO. & here by Tom Kyte and here on OTN and here.
Also, APEX has a migration tool when you're ready to make the jump.
We are planning a migration of an Oracle Forms and report 6i application to 12c, and at the same time we will upgrade to the latest version of Oracle (from 10g to 12c).
I would like to know the steps that we can follow, or from where to start?
Is there anything that we must consider before doing this? Any problems that we might encounter?
Any information whatsoever would be helpful !
I just recently did this exact thing.
You'll want to use the Forms migration assistant to do the heavy lifting. Copy your FMB files somewhere and run the assistant against them. Then open the FMB's in 12c and convert the 2 tier commands to 3 tier (like HOST to CLIENT_HOST (using webutil), etc) and you also may want to look for other enhancements that can be made using 12c specific code over 6i (file operation handling, reports, external link handling, etc)
I'm planning to do an out-of-place upgrade for OBIEE from 10g on windows server 2003 to 11.1.1.9 on windows server 2012.
I find a document in the Oracle website below, which specify how to do an upgrade of OBIEE. However, may I know if it is applicable for an in-place update only? Could anyone please kindly recommend some useful references which specifies the steps required to perform an out-of-place upgrade as mentioned above?
Upgrade Guide for Oracle Business Intelligence 11g Release 1 (11.1.1.9.0) E16452-09
This tells you all you need: https://docs.oracle.com/middleware/11119/core/FUGBI/bi_plan.htm#FUGBI436
There's no such thing as an "in place" upgrade from 10g to 11g. The Upgrade Assistant helps with the RPD and WebCat, but you still need to do the manual migration. It's well documented and several years later a well-trodden path so you'll find plenty of blog posts etc discussing any issues you may encounter.
I have to migrate all the database tables from oracle to db2 in Talend Open Studio tool.
Can anyone please tell me each and every basic steps from starting to end, to migrate the database tables from oracle to db2 in Talend Open Studio.
Every single migration is different, there could be many procedures, however you should adapt them to your environement. Remember that DB2 has many Oracle compatibilities, and IBM continue to increase it. However, you should care about what DB2 version you are using, and what Oracle compatibilities it has. Probably you would like to use the latest version 10.5.
Probably you should use IBM Data Movement Too for the whole process.
You can get a lot of clues to design your migration strategie from the following articles:
DB2 10: Run Oracle applications on DB2 10 for Linux, UNIX, and Windows - http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/data/library/techarticle/dm-0907oracleappsondb2/ This article is written by Serge Rielau, an IBM DB2 expert. There is an overview of the IBM Data Movement Tool.
DB2 Meet - https://www.ibm.com/developerworks/community/wikis/home?lang=en#!/wiki/DB2%20for%20LUW%20Application%20Enablement/page/Meet%20DB2 This is a tool that shows you how much do you have to modify your stored procedures in order to be compatible with DB2.

I used some reporting platforms ( SAP Business Objects and some other third party applications). I have pl-sql experience but I am new to Oracle BI.
At this point, I have some questions which confuses my mind.
First one is there are lots of terminology in Oracle BI but I do not know which products should I know, or in which order I can learn and experience these platforms.
For example you can create dashboards, analysis by Oracle BI. Terms/products like Essbase, Hyperion, Warehouse Builder, ODI etc.
My second question is :
I want to install Oracle 11g and Oracle BI 11 in the same pc. But I hearded and read on some forums that they are not working on the same computer. But I want to setup BI tool to my personal computer for practicing in my home. How can I install these two products in my pc? ( My pc is 64 bit)
Thanks&Regards
Just dot it ;-)

You can have a database and obiee on the same machine.
Cheers

You need to install Oracle DB 11g followed by the latest OBIEE 11g installation. (note that you need to install RCU before you proceed with the OBIEE 11g install). You can get both of them from otn.oracle.com. The Install documentation can guide you in the entire setup; and hopefully there should be no surprises.
After that, install the Sample App and follow the instructions to create new analysis, dashboards etc. After this, am sure you will be upto speed with the terminologies and the workflows.
Check this post on wiki - should give you basic understanding on OBIEE stack
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oracle_Business_Intelligence_Suite_Enterprise_Edition
you mentioned Warehouse Builder - Oracle steering away from it, so ODI will be a choice of ETL tool.
You have a long journey ahead of you for OBIEE so, sit back, relax and enjoy the ride. You want to start with the BI Foundation which includes BI Server and Answers, before moving on to products like Essbase, Hyperion, Warehouse Builder, ODI etc.
I would start by
Doing a simple install of OBIEE. I prefer Linux but you can use Windows as well. 8GB would be nice. Each of the following has a graphical install wizard which guides you through the choices.
a. Install the DB
b. Run the RCU
c. Install OBIEE
d. Install BI Admin tool for creating or modifying the repository
Do some tutorials provided by Oracle. I would start with the following and in this order.
a. Creating a Repository Using the Oracle BI 11g Administration Tool - MANDATORY if you are a serious OBIEE professional
b. Creating Analyses and Building Dashboards - For Adhoc Analysis - Important
c. Getting Started with Oracle BI Publisher - OPTIONAL - If you care for published or printed reports or for some quick and dirty reporting, without having to create a model in the repository.
You want to avoid these common mistakes if you are installing on Windows.
You can install Oracle 11g ad Oracle BI in the same machine without any issue.
As far as the second question is concerned, you can create your reports with the knowledge of only Oracle BI , pl/sql and 11g. Pl/Sql is required to writhe pre and post procesors for the report. ESS will only be required to schedule the report and as such you won't require it in the learning phase. You can learn it later
