GXplorer is the Business Intelligence suite for GeneXus customers who need to support their decision-making process in an efficient and cost-effective way. GXplorer enables you to build and maintain dynamic Data Warehouses based on the business knowledge already captured in your GeneXus Knowledge Bases, thus avoiding expensive tools and elongated implementation times. GeneXus and GXplorer support the whole life-cycle of your data warehouse, from implementation to data analysis. GXplorer OLAP is a user-friendly OLAP (OnLine Analytical Processing) client that enables end users to define their own reports. Key Features Automatic Maintenance GeneXus lets you create the Data Warehouse and the loading process in a GeneXus Knowledge Base. GXplorer Manager automatically creates and maintains the metadata. When changes are made, they automatically spread through the Data Warehouse, the loading process, the metadata and the queries. Multi-platform GXplorer is integrated into the GeneXus tool suite, which guarantees the portability of all the solution’s components to any platform as well as the technological validity of your Business Intelligence solutions. Intelligent Data Warehouse Creation GeneXus lets you define a measurement model for your business in a GeneXus Knowledge Base. It does so by automatically building the Data Warehouse that supports that model and the data loading mechanisms of the Data Warehouse. The Data Warehouse can be built either on GeneXus-generated databases or on other databases. Quick Results In order to start working with the Data Warehouse, you don’t need to perform an analysis of the whole company and all the systems. A few business indicators are enough to get started Page 3 GXplorer Overview and quickly obtain results. Later on, more indicators and dimensions may be added so as to reach the final solution through successive, incremental approximations. Page 4 GXplorer Overview Key Benefits Integrated into Microsoft Excel GXplorer OLAP works as a component of Excel version 2000 or higher. Once the query has been formulated, GXplorer automatically and transparently turns it into a database query, and then loads the retrieved data in an Excel dynamic table. To draw charts, users have all the power provided by the Excel facilities available. Intuitive and User-friendly GXplorer OLAP was designed to enable executives to make the queries required to analyze and measure their business, directly, simply, intuitively, and in their own language, without the need to receive any additional training. It allows them to navigate freely and intelligently through all the information contained in the databases. Using GXplorer, users access the information they need from a spreadsheet, with all the Excel facilities that they already know (pivot tables, reports format, charts, formulas, etc.). Win and Web Access to Your Information GXplorer OLAP Web allows making from the Internet the same queries that are made from Excel, thus making it possible to query the business real information remotely. User-based Security GXplorer ensures reliable data access. When a user makes a query, the corresponding data is displayed according to his/her permits. This also happens when opening an already saved query. Unlimited Information It is possible to continue navigating though the obtained information, detailing it under other perspectives (function known as "drill down"), without any restrictions. Thus, GXplorer provides a simple, intelligent and efficient manner to withdraw and analyze our databases information directly from Excel spreadsheets or from the Internet. Teamwork Users can save queries to be later executed and studied, even outside the office, assigning who will share this query and with what level of security. Page 5 GXplorer Overview User guide to build queries Query building can be made from Excel or from the Internet, and it consists simply in choosing the business measures and their analysis perspectives (business dimensions), permanently guided by the product that intelligently suggests the user only those valid elements. Thus, GXplorer supports the users when they build their queries, guaranteeing their consistency. Page 6 GXplorer Overview Product Description GeneXus and GXplorer support the whole life-cycle of your Data Warehouse, from implementation to data analysis. GXplorer OLAP GXplorer OLAP is an advanced OLAP client that enables end users to specify any query to the Data Warehouse in plain business knowledge.

  • Diseño E Implementación De Un Motor De Reglas Dinámicas Usando Especificaciones Genexus”
    UNIVERSIDAD DE LA REPÚBLICA Facultad de Ingeniería InCo - Instituto de Computación “Diseño e implementación de un motor de reglas dinámicas usando especificaciones GeneXus” Tesis de Maestría presentada por Luciano Silveira Tutor M.Sc. Juan José Prada Informe Montevideo, Uruguay - 2010 Resumen Las organizaciones poseen un conjunto de políticas que utilizan como fundamento para operar. Por lo general las reglas de negocio definen estas políticas, las prácticas y los procedimientos que se deben de llevar a cabo para satisfacer los objetivos del negocio. Las reglas de negocio no son estáticas; las empresas que continuamente ajusten sus procesos y reglas en respuesta a las condiciones de negocio cambiantes estarán mejor preparadas para afrontar las demandas del mercado y expectativas de los clientes. En los últimos tiempos, ha tomado fuerza la idea de diseñar y administrar estas restricciones y políticas (representadas como reglas de negocio) en forma independiente de los procesos del negocio y aplicaciones, de tal forma que los cambios en restricciones, reglas y políticas empresariales puedan ser especificados en forma independiente por un analista del negocio sin necesidad de modificar las aplicaciones. Un motor de evaluación de reglas de negocio provee capacidades de este estilo, donde las políticas empresariales se declaran a un nivel de abstracción acorde al analista de negocio. Un motor toma estas definiciones y a partir de los datos recibidos, ejecuta las acciones que indiquen las reglas. Se logra una mayor agilidad y transparencia llevando a las empresas a mejorar la modularidad y accesibilidad de sus reglas y políticas empresariales, al separar éstas de los procesos empresariales y de la lógica de presentación.
