Vermont SQL Server User Group
Next Meeting
Introduction to Analysis Services 2005
Our next user group meeting will be Wednesday, September 27 2006 – 6pm to 8pm at Competitive computing.
Session Description
Analyzing data requires different techniques to fit different scenarios. OLAP cubes provide structured hierarchical views of data to aid drill-down analysis, while Data Mining attempts to predict structural relationships within the data. This session will provide an overview of these modern analysis methods, with examples of the applications of both techniques. Highlights of the programmability interface such, as MDX will also be covered.
