Introduction to SQL Server Analysis Services

SQL Server Analysis Services (SSAS)

The need of Analytical Applications
To create multidimensional objects and to provide multidimensional analysis, we require analytical applications
EX: COGNOS, BO, MICROSTRATEGY, SSAS, HYPERION, OBIEE ETC………
SSAS, COGNOS, MICROSTRATEGY ……. ETC Tools are pure MOLAP tools

If you would like to become an SSAS Certified professional, then visit Mindmajix - A Global online training platform: “ SSAS Certification Training Course ".This course will help you to achieve excellence in this domain.


Structure of Multidimensional Objects:
Generally, dimension modeling structure (star schema, snowflake schema, etc) used for multidimensional objects providing many- many relationships with E-R modeling is difficult

Multidimensional Object Usage (Cube Usage):
It provides support to end-user (or) client by using various tools and applications
 Multidimensional Object Usage

  • Various raw material requires are (chemical, oils, clothes, etc….) to manufacture this product
  • There are different storage areas ( go down, item keeping units) to maintain the product storage

STEPS REQUIRED FROM END TO END TO IMPLEMENT THE ABOVE PROJECT

  1. Need to collect the discussions from major to minor
  2. According to the discussions, the analytical team collects or gathers the required business information from the project
  3. Analyzing the business requirements
  4. Identifying dimensions and facts for the above business and creating   LDM’s (logical data modeling )
  5. Converting LDM’s to PDM’s (physical data modeling)
  6. Based on the PDM’s we go for designing the dimensional model (star schema, snowflake schema …. Etc  )
  7. Writing code to the design document in analysis services for analytical application (BO, Cognos, Hyperion ….. etc)

Note: except the last step remaining all steps are platform-independent

Conclusion:

For the above business, the technical team identifies (data modulators, data designers, data architectures, domain experts, SME’s (subject modern experts)) the below dimension and fact tables

Dimensions ad fact tables:
a) Time dimension
b) Product dimension
c) Location dimension
d) Raw material dimension
e) Item storage unit dimension (ISU dimension)N
One fact table for the above all dimensions
