Database	Supported versions and editions
Oracle	Oracle 11.2.0.2.0 client (64 bit) Note This component is required on the SAP® BusinessObjects computer. and Oracle 11.2.0.2.0 client (32 and 64 bit) Note This component is required if you install SAP® BusinessObjects and SAP® BusinessObjects Client Tools on the same computer
SQL Server	SQL Server Client tools 2008 (32bit) SQL Server Client tools 2008, when installed on X64 OS, x86 client is installed along with the x64 client. (If you install both Client Tools and BI platform servers on the same 64-bit Windows operating system, you must install both 32-bit and 64-bit database drivers on the machine. You must also install both 32-bit and 64-bit database connector middleware and configure their data sources as identical, because Client Tools requests can be handled by either of the two 32-bit or 64-bit Native Connectivity Services in this scenario.
