John Simon on BI. Microsoft Business Intelligence and Data Warehousing. SSRS Sparkline report using MDX. Posted on March 23, 2011. In this post I am going to describe how to create a report with Sparklines using an MDX query. In my current role I do a lot of Proof Of Concept pre-sales work for different industries, and I’ve really grown to love sparklines. I think they are fantastic in giving users an understanding of how an object is tracking over time in a single glance. ALTER TABLE dbo.DimDate ADD...

John Simon on BI. Microsoft Business Intelligence and Data Warehousing. Posted on November 19, 2011. My friend and colleague Boyan Penev has a post on how to do ordering of attributes in SSAS here: : http:/ www.bp-msbi.com/2011/11/alternate-ordering-of-attributes-in-ssas/. The people requesting this change were eventually convinced that the change was not wise, and I’d like to present those reasons in this post. The main reason I refused and argued against this change boils down to useability. The date d...

John Simon on BI. Microsoft Business Intelligence and Data Warehousing. Tracking History with Slowly Changing Dimensions. Posted on September 24, 2011. The common way to track changes in an Inmon or 3. Normal Form data warehouse is to use the Natural/Business Key combined with a start and end date.

John Simon on BI. Microsoft Business Intelligence and Data Warehousing. Process Modeling – Is this a fact or a dimension? Posted on November 23, 2011.

Dimensional Modeling Worst Practices | John Simon on BI
https://jsimonbi.wordpress.com/2011/05/16/dimensional-modeling-worst-practices
John Simon on BI. Microsoft Business Intelligence and Data Warehousing. Dimensional Modeling Worst Practices. Posted on May 16, 2011. As a consultant I see a lot of BI/DW solutions with various clients, and am often called in to fix performance issues. Often times developers/architects will ignore the Ralph Kimball methodology, or try to improve it by breaking a few rules. So I thought it might be worthwhile for me to post some of the Worst Practices for Dimensional Modeling. If we run the following code...

A Blog That Examines Data Warehousing Concepts With Examples. Friday, May 25, 2012. If mom goes to the grocery store alone, getting the groceries on her list will take a certain amount of time. If mom, dad, and the two kids all go and each takes responsibility for getting 25% of the items, the total duration will be lessened. However, this will require that the items in the four separate grocery carts are consolidated into one before being presented at the cash register. Posted by Brian Ciampa. KEY TRANS...

Will Thrash's Blog. Big Data, Business Intelligence. Using -1 for Uknown Dimension Entry with Netezza. Using -1 for Unknown Dimension member with Netezza Can Cause Slowness. If this is done when a large amount of data is associated with the unknown row, that data will be skewed to a single data slice. Since your query is only as fast as the slowest data slice, this will be the bottleneck. A solution to this problem can be found here. I never thought I would advocate adding 10,000 dummy records.)

Consulting and Technical Services. SSIS Component Samples List. Using SSIS samples from this site. Managing complex security in SSAS Tabular – Yeah Nah edition. March 15, 2015. A couple of times recently I have come up against requirements which have required some fairly complex logic to apply security. One involved some fairly gnarly relationships coming from multiple directions, the other involved grinding through Hierarchies from parent nodes down to permitted viewable children. Do it in the Cube?

Agile methodologies have a patchy track record in BI/DW projects. A lot of this is to do with adopting the methodologies themselves – as I’ve alluded to in prior posts there are a heap of obstacles in the way that are cultural, process and ability based. What is this Zero sprint anyway? How to structure and sell the Zero sprint.

So you’ve run a job on Hadoop on Azure, and now you want that data somewhere more useful, like in your Data Warehouse for some analytics. If the Hive ODBC Driver. Isn’t an option (perhaps because you used Pig), then FTP is the way – there isn’t a Javascript console fs.get() command available. As described in my Upload data.
