Product Description

Product Description
MICROSOFT® SQL SERVER™ 2000 ANALYSIS SERVICES STEP BY STEP shows Microsoft Excel and Access experts, IS managers, and database developers how to build applications that take advantage of the powerful data-analysis services in Microsoft SQL Server 2000. You’ll discover why these services make it easier to analyze huge amounts of data quickly, and you’ll learn how to develop a wide range of advanced dimensional-data applications—from enterprise reporting tools to advanced decision-support systems. The book’s easy-to-follow lessons begin with clear objectives and include real-world business examples, with a companion CD full of sample files that support each lesson. This title shows you how to: • Administer the Analysis Manager: Understand the fundamentals behind data dimensions and hierarchies, data warehousing, and the Microsoft Analysis Services architecture, and use the Microsoft Analysis Manager application to define and populate data cubes. •Create and display cubes: Define and modify measures and dimensions. Design, build, process, and view cubes, from simple to advanced, with cube and dimension editors. Use Microsoft Excel PivotTable® Reports and the PivotTable List in Microsoft Excel to browse cubes, and create cubes using Microsoft Office. •Query cubes: Use multidimensional expressions (MDX) values and sets and the MDX Sample application to query and display dimensional data. •Perform advanced administration: Choose data storage options and the Storage Design Wizard to optimize, manage, and update data efficiently. Automate the Analysis server to process an OLAP database. Work with partitions and automate updates, and apply security to cubes.

5.0 out of 5 stars A comprehensive introduction to Analysis Services, 17 April 2001
By MR PAUL A HOLMES (London, UK United Kingdom) - See all my reviews
Originally an orange spine on a Microsoft book meant 'serious' - Inside SQL Server for example got right under the skin of the RDBMS.

It now looks like Microsoft Press have realised that orange is simply a colour that will stand out amongst the myriad of other books on the shelf. And I'm pleased it does.

Jacobson's book might start at the very beginning (it is, after all, subtitled Step by Step) but keeps up a manageable but swift pace, heading off into Office and Web Integration, MDX et al.

There's no doubt it could go further, but that's probably for another book. This gets you along way down the line, in only a matter of days. Not only that, but it has some good tips on things to avoid and some of the (few) limitations of the product.

I'm now about to deliver a project in half time I expected. Now all I want is the hardcore 'Inside.' guide... :-)
