BI 2008 Simple
- 1. Business Intelligence Lynn Langit/MSDN Developer Evangelist Southern California http://blogs.msdn.com/SoCalDevGal
- 2. Session Prerequisites – Session One Working SQL Server 2005 Developer –OR- Working .Net developers
- 3. Session One Objectives and Agenda Understand what, why, when & how of SQL Server 2008 Business Intelligence Examine the core functionality SSAS OLAP cubes and Data Mining Models
- 4. What and Why BI? Presentation Exploration Discovery Passive Interactive Proactive Role of Software Business Insight Predictive Analytics Canned reporting Ad-hoc reporting OLAP Data mining
- 5. SQL Server 2008 BI & Tools OLTP – SQL Server Engine SSMS / Profiler and other mgmt tools Reporting – SSRS No need for IIS, BIDS / Report Manager to design Integrates with SharePoint ETL – SSIS Part of SQL Server, BIDS to design OLAP – SSAS Multidimensional Cubes, BIDS / SSMS Data Mining – SSAS Algorithm-based models – BIDS / Excel / SSMS
- 6. Why BI? Faster reports OLAP can be 1,000% faster Flexible click to query using pivot tables, add calculated members, create custom views Proactive ‘ discover’ patterns in data, ‘predict’ future Reduce load on OLTP source systems Scalable no manual index tuning, data de-normalization
- 7. SQL Server 2008 Languages OLTP – SQL Server Engine T-SQL, .NET (CLR), XML Reporting – SSRS RDL + queries ETL – SSIS XMLA metadata + queries, .NET extendable OLAP – SSAS MDX, XMLA Data Mining – SSAS DMX, XMLA, PMML
- 8. Cubes vs. Data Mining
- 9. Where do I start? Understand OLAP modeling Star schema + grain statements Review AdventureWorks DW sample From www.CodePlex.com Realistically access source data quality Plan for ETL, learn SSIS Leverage Excel Light-weight data mining designer and client OLAP cube pivot table client
- 10. BI baked into the MS platform Enterprise – Performance Point Individual – Excel Project – Share Point
- 11. But, I want to build my own app… Don’t under-estimate the learning curve Embed extended controls Consider buying extendable components

- 17. DM - From Scenarios to Tasks
- 18. From Tasks to Techniques
- 19. Understand & Prepare specifics
- 21. New to SQL Server 2008 Microsoft Time Series algorithm improved ARIMA plus ARTxp method, and a blending algorithm = better results New prediction mode allows adding new data to time series models Holdout Support added Easily partition data into training and test sets that are stored in mining structure & available to query after processing Ability to build mining models based on filtered subsets added Results in less structures, i.e. can just filter existing Drillthrough functionality extended makes all mining structure columns available, not just columns included in the model allows you to build more compact models Cross-validation added allows users to quickly validate their modeling approach by automatically building temporary models and evaluating accuracy measures across K folds. The feature is available through a new cross-validation tab under Accuracy Charts in BIDS, in addition to being accessible programmatically via a stored procedure call.
- 22. Summary Data Mining in SQL Server 2008 is mature, powerful and accessible Can use Excel 2007 Familiar client for BI – OLAP cubes AND Data Mining models Model Creators / Users Excel Data or Server Data SSAS and Excel both support the full DM Cycle Data Understanding Data Preparation Modeling Validation Deployment
