  • The Design of Multidimensional Data Model Using Principles of the Anchor Data Modeling: an Assessment of Experimental Approach Based on Query Execution Performance
    WSEAS TRANSACTIONS on COMPUTERS Radek Němec, František Zapletal The Design of Multidimensional Data Model Using Principles of the Anchor Data Modeling: An Assessment of Experimental Approach Based on Query Execution Performance RADEK NĚMEC, FRANTIŠEK ZAPLETAL Department of Systems Engineering Faculty of Economics, VŠB - Technical University of Ostrava Sokolská třída 33, 701 21 Ostrava CZECH REPUBLIC [email protected], [email protected] Abstract: - The decision making processes need to reflect changes in the business world in a multidimensional way. This includes also similar way of viewing the data for carrying out key decisions that ensure competitiveness of the business. In this paper we focus on the Business Intelligence system as a main toolset that helps in carrying out complex decisions and which requires multidimensional view of data for this purpose. We propose a novel experimental approach to the design a multidimensional data model that uses principles of the anchor modeling technique. The proposed approach is expected to bring several benefits like better query execution performance, better support for temporal querying and several others. We provide assessment of this approach mainly from the query execution performance perspective in this paper. The emphasis is placed on the assessment of this technique as a potential innovative approach for the field of the data warehousing with some implicit principles that could make the process of the design, implementation and maintenance of the data warehouse more effective. The query performance testing was performed in the row-oriented database environment using a sample of 10 star queries executed in the environment of 10 sample multidimensional data models.

  • (BI) Using MS Excel Powerpivot
    2018 ASCUE Proceedings Developing an Introductory Class in Business Intelligence (BI) Using MS Excel Powerpivot Dr. Sam Hijazi Trevor Curtis Texas Lutheran University 1000 West Court Street Seguin, Texas 78130 [email protected] Abstract Asking questions about your data is a constant application of all business organizations. To facilitate decision making and improve business performance, a business intelligence application must be an in- tegral part of everyday management practices. Microsoft Excel added PowerPivot and PowerPivot offi- cially to facilitate this process with minimum cost, knowing that many business people are already fa- miliar with MS Excel. This paper will design an introductory class to business intelligence (BI) using Excel PowerPivot. If an educator decides to adopt this paper for teaching an introductory BI class, students should have previ- ous familiarity with Excel’s functions and formulas. This paper will focus on four significant phases all students need to complete in a three-credit class. First, students must understand the process of achiev- ing small database normalization and how to bring these tables to Excel or develop them directly within Excel PowerPivot. This paper will walk the reader through these steps to complete the task of creating the normalization, along with the linking and bringing the tables and their relationships to excel. Sec- ond, an introduction to Data Analysis Expression (DAX) will be discussed. Introduction It is not that difficult to realize the increase in the amount of data we have generated in the recent memory of our existence as a human race. To realize that more than 90% of the world’s data has been amassed in the past two years alone (Vidas M.) is to realize the need to manage such volume.

As time goes by, these organizations produce a lot of data related to their business, but often these data are not integrated, been stored within one or more platforms. Thus, they are hardly used for decision-making processes, though they could be a valuable aiding resource. A central repository is needed; nevertheless, traditional databases are not designed to review, manage and store historical/strategic information, but deal with ever changing operational data, to support “daily transactions”. 3/80 Andrea Brunello Data Warehousing What is Data Warehousing? Data warehousing is a technique for collecting and managing data from different sources to provide meaningful business insights. It is a blend of components and processes which allows the strategic use of data: • Electronic storage of a large amount of information which is designed for query and analysis instead of transaction processing • Process of transforming data into information and making it available to users in a timely manner to make a difference 4/80 Andrea Brunello Data Warehousing Why Data Warehousing? A 3NF-designed database for an inventory system has many tables related to each other through foreign keys. A report on monthly sales information may include many joined conditions.

Radiating outward from the fact table, we will have two dimension tables for products and customers. Workflow orchestration service built on Apache Airflow. However, unlike a star schema, a dimension table in a snowflake schema is divided out into more than one table, and placed in relation to the center of the snowflake by cardinality. Now comes a major question that a developer has to face before starting to design a data warehouse. Difference Between Star and Snowflake Schema. Star schema is the base to design a star cluster schema and few essential dimension tables from the star schema are snowflaked and this, in turn, forms a more stable schema structure. Edit or create new comparisons in your area of expertise. Add intelligence and efficiency to your business with AI and machine learning.
