- 15. SQL Server Analysis Services BI SEMANTIC MODEL Data access Use SQL Server data tools for Visual Studio to create BI semantic models DATA SOURCES CLIENT TOOLS Data model Business logic Queries
- 16. SQL Server Analysis Services One Semantic Model - Two Ways to Develop Tabular Models Relational modeling constructs (model, tables, columns, relationships) Fast by design with in-memory Easy to get started and simple Use SSAS as a semantic model without storing data Multidimensional models OLAP modeling constructs (cubes, dimensions, measures). Highly scalable and mature Feature rich and complex
- 17. DAX Security Data Analysis Expressions (DAX) is a formula language based on Excel formulas and relational concepts and perform dynamic aggregation. Row-level security with DAX filters Security can be enforced by the back-end database using row-level security features Tabular Model SQL Server Reporting Services Tabular Models Calculated Measures Calculated tables Time Intelligence KPI Performance . In-Memory column-based Compression level is high Direct Query Paralleled partition processing
