Data Analysis In SQL 2005?
Jun 26, 2007
Hi!
I have a task on my table, and Im not really sure how to do this in MS SQL 2005.
The customer wants to import data from an oracle db to a sql server 2005, this is easy. Then the customer want me to allow them to implement a few business models on top of this data... and allow them to run various simulations.
The data is financial, so they already have some financial business model they want to implement in MS SQL Server 2005.
Is there some sort of service in SS 2005? I was thinking about reporting and analyzis services, but I have never worked with those before... would they solve the puzzle for me? One keyword in the request was "interative simulation"... they want to be able to play with the data and to see what changes to certain constants in the model produce the best output...
When all this is done, they want to push this data back into Oracle.
To me this sounds like Data mining and business intelligence using OLAP cubes etc. Or what do you think? Is there an easy way to do this in SS 2005? Any suggestions is helpful
kind regards
Henrik

I just have a simple question that can hopefully answer whether I should dive too deeply into Reporting/Analysis Services. I'm looking to run some clustering algorithms on user-inputted keywords on objects within my database (please see http://flickr.com/photos/tags/friends/clusters/ for an example of what I'm talking about). It seems to me that the various reporting methods that SQL Server provides would be an ideal, quick and easy way of providing this for my SQL Server 2005 database.
Can the reporting services provide this type of functionality? And if so, would this be scalable? I would want to be able to access this clustered data in much the same way I do queries across my database and would want them to be done quickly and efficiently.
Thank you for your help.

A rather dumb question but I've installed an evaluation copy of SQL 2005 on my machine and a colleague would like the Analysis Services Data Mining capability on his machine (without the eval SQL Server).
Is there a license associated with such an installation when we buy 2005 or does it fall under client components which can be installed on any number of users machines?

Hello,Can I import an OLTP (Reltional DB) as a Data Source into SQL ServerAnalysis Services 2005 and then use the Cube Wizard and the new DataSource View feature to create the OLAP model ?Or do I have to first design an OLAP Data Warehouse with a Star Schemaand then import this DW as a Data Source into my Analysis ServicesProject.With SQL Server 2000 , OLAP would be the way to go..but with SQLServer 2005 , it seems as though the wizard and data source viewfeatures do half the work for you.I have an OLTP DB and am not sure which route I should take ! Anysuggestions / input would be much appreciated.Thanks in Advance...RegardsRusszee

Hi,
I have some questions about SQL Servers 2000 and 2005 compatibility.
In my configuration I have to use both servers.
The cubes are stocked in 2005 server.
May I transfer from 2005 to 2000 Analysis Services the cubes?
If yes, what is the procedure? The result of migration is the same in the two different versions?
If not, how can I solve this problem?
Thanks in advance.

I have SQL 2005 SP1 already installed and I am trying simply to add Analysis Services in without screwing anything up.
I re-run setup from the original CD, but then I receive the following warning:
To change an existing instance of Microsoft SQL Server 2005 to a different edition of SQL Server 2005, you must run SQL Server 2005 Setup from the command prompt and include the SKUUPGRADE=1 parameter.
Can I safely continue with the installation and just check Analysis Services since it is just a warning? And after the install re-run SQL 2005 SP1 or is there a way to add this from the SP1 installation files, please help.

Hi,
Firstly, I had to post this query here since I did not find any other place relating to Microsoft SQL Analysis Server 2005 and that it is related to SQL server 2005.
I am using Microsoft SQL analysis server 2005 and .NET 1.1 for Asp.NET (C#)
I need to programmatically create Measures, Dimensions and Cubes using .Net 1.1 (C#) in an Asp.NET page, and then I need to access the measures, dimensions and cubes again from another Asp.Net page.
My querys are:
1. To create and manipulate the SQL Analysis server objects like Dimensions, Cubes what should I use? The documentation for Analysis server 2005 says we can use (Analysis Management Objects)AMO. but I am not sure if we can use it with .NET 1.1?
2. If AMO is possible, then what to use? There is one more technology we can use called as (Deciscion Suport Objects) DSO. but they are COM based and were for Analysis services 2000.
3. To query the data, what technology can I use? Microsoft says we can use ADOMD.NET. Microsoft also gives many other technologies that I think do similar work, like XMLA, ASSL.
Can somebody help me in this.
Also please do give me some links that have code samples for the same.
Thanks and Regards

Will Analysis Services 2005 work against a SQL Server 2000 database without SQL Server 2005 installed? Does Analysis Services 2005 require SQL Server 2005?
I have a data-centric application using SQL Server 2000. Personally, as a developer, I would love to upgrade to SQL Server 2005, but that's really not an option for another year or so for business reasons outside of my control.
I would like to add an Analysis Services cube based reporting system on top of my existing relational database. I've heard Analysis Services 2005 is much improved over 2000 and would really like to use that. Is this at all possible?
I've also heard of problems when installing SQL Server 2005 on the same system as SQL Server 2000. This makes testing the waters very difficult for me as I'd have to use a completely separate dev system.

Folks,I need help with this task. I have a set of data that needs to be plotted ontimeline chart.Example:Unit ProcStart ProcEnd MachineU1 5/5/03 6:01 5/5/03 6:04 M1U2 5/5/03 6:03 5/5/03 6:05 M1U3 5/5/03 6:03 5/5/03 6:04 M2:etc. There are about 40K units and 30 serving machines. The data is inMSAccess / SQLServer. My overall task is to plot concurrent processing ateach machine at each 1-minute interval.Example for M1:count3|2| * *1| * * *|______________________________6:01 6:02 6:03 6:04 6:05 6:06My thought is that if I can break down each row of data into smallertimechunk, then I can do grouping and counts based on the new data -- whichis something like:Unit ProcTime MachineU1 6:01 M1U1 6:02 M1U1 6:03 M1U1 6:04 M1U2 6:03 M1U2 6:04 M1U2 6:05 M1U3 6:03 M2U3 6:04 M2Then I was thinking to do query with: Machine, ProcTime, Count(Unit). Then Ican export the data into Excel and plot it.My questions:1) How to break the original data into smaller chunk timeframe (i.e. query,stored procedure, etc.)?2) Is this a sound approach? Any suggestions for better idea to achieve thetask?Cheers,-Jon

Hi,
I need to calculate the average of an existing measure of my cube.
The measure is PA_Salaire from a column of my fact table.
I would like to calculate an average i could use with all the dimensions of my cube but i think i can only create one linked to a single dimension. Is that true ?
I dont really understand the way i should write my request. Here is what i did:
(Manager is one of my dimensions, it has a parent child relation... is that a problem? does it change the way i should do?)
Avg(Descendants([Manager].CurrentMember, [Manager].[Name]), [Measures].[PA Salaire]
But that doesnt work at all i get the following result: " #VALUE! " for every manager
Thx for your help

I have a complex scenario , so first I want to ask out the feasibility of it . I think its better if I state the scenario and some one on this forum reply to it , I need to build an application (e.g credit card application , Loan Application etc ) that requires some approval from expert , what I firstly want is that I apply datamining on this data so that next time when I enter the data the result (approval or reject ) should be given by datamining tool , this I gather is poosible by using Analysis Services in SQL 2005 , but I also want the bases of that decision ( I mean the rules/some thing else that the Datamining created agaisnt the data entered ) , So can any one do any help on this , you can also reach me at razi_rais@yahoo.com . its preety much urgent so your prompt response is higly appreciated.

I have the next problem:
i have MS sql server 2005 installed in a server.
We have some olap cubes in the server deployed with analysis services 2005.
When we try to connect to the analysis server from a client pc using pivot tables we obtain this error:
"Errors in network layers. Error code=0XC10D0009, External code=0x00000000"
The client pc has panda antivirus (corporate) with true prevent
When i unisnstall it, we can connect to the analysis server and to the cube normally and when we install the antivirus again (without true prevent and with the minimun options) the problem starts again and we can't conect to the analysis server.
Anybody had a similar problem?
Anybody knows a solution for it?
Thanks

Hi experts,having a parent-child-table with the columns child_id, child_name, parent_idin SQL Server 2005 I just cannot create a parent-child dimension in BI DevStudio. Can anyone give me some hints? The Dim Build wizard doesn't createthe hierarchies, manually setting "parent" property to parent_id and "key"to child_id as well as dragging and dropping the stuff into the hierachyfield haven't just led to success. I also tried to right-click bothparent_id and child_id to create a member property. It just never workedout.Any help would be greatly appreciated.Kind regards,Joerg

Hi,
I've been trying to use Analysis Services 2005 Cube as a data source, query it via MDX and then use the data returned elsewhere in SSIS.
However, I've been unable to get this working and can't find any information regarding how this can be done. Surely it should be possible when I can get this working even in Excel?
I've looked in December edition of BOL and no luck - have also sent a feedback to BOL regarding this and have been told that "it should be possible, since there is a way to send SQL queries to AS." However the person I was speaking with knew of no one who had actually tried this scenario and to try posting here.
Any help as to how to get this done would be greatly appreciated.

I have created a cube with Analysis Service 2005. I then publish the pivot table (generated in Microsoft Excel 2003) as a web page. When I view the web page on the domain the LAN everything is working properly. But when the web page I view on Internet I get the error.
The query could not be processed:
* An error was encounted in the transport layer
* The peer prematurely closed the connection.
The web page is publish on the Internet Information Server, I changed the security directory of the website, but the error persists.
The firewall of the machine is disabled.
The port 2382 and 2883 are allowed.
The components needed to consult the cube are installed in the machine on which you are viewing the cube.
On the Rol of Analysis Service are allowed all users.
What other type of restriction may be?
Thanks...!!!

Hi,
I am trying to set up a SQL 2005 analysis server cluster in our two servers, AS02 and AS04. The server cluster is built up on Majority Node Set (MNS). During the installation of the analysis service, I don't see the available cluster groups. In the cluster admin, the cluster is up and running fine. The MNS cluster has no shared disk, and it has two nodes.
Any thoughts or suggestions? or is it possible to built the SQL 2005 analysis service cluster with MNS?
Thanks.

I've got a RS2000 report from Analysis services 2000. This report is working fine but after the upgrade to SQL2K5, i'm having issues with changes to parameters.
Basically i'm passing DateQuarter, CustomersLevel as parameters to the following mdx script. I've tried to change mdx script in RS2005 but no luck yet. I don't much about the parameter level changes in sql2k5. So can anyone suggest what is wrong in the script.
In sql2000 the script looks like this...
="with " &
"member [Measures].[Ex Price] as 'coalesceempty([Measures].[Ex Price After Trade Discount - Detail],0.00)' " &
"Member [Measures].[CustomerUniqueName] as '[Customers By Class].currentmember.UniqueName' " &
"Member [Measures].[CustomerDisplayName] as '[Customers By Class].Currentmember.Name' " &
"SELECT " &
"{[Measures].[CustomerUniqueName],[Measures].[CustomerDisplayName]} on Columns, " &
"filter({descendants(" & Parameters!CustomerClass.value & ", [Customers by Class].[" & Parameters!CustomersLevel.value & "], SELF)}, " &
" [Measures].[Ex Price] > 0) on rows " &
"from Sales "
i've changed the script in sql2005 but not working yet..
with
member [Measures].[Ex Price] as 'coalesceempty([Measures].[Ex Price After Trade Discount - Detail],0.00)'
Member [Measures].[CustomerUniqueName] as '[Customers By Class].currentmember.UniqueName'
Member [Measures].[CustomerDisplayName] as '[Customers By Class].Currentmember.Name'
SELECT
{[Measures].[CustomerUniqueName],[Measures].[CustomerDisplayName]} on Columns,
filter({descendants( STRTOMEMBER(@CustomerClass), "[Customer Class]." + STRTOMEMBER(@CustomersLevel), SELF)},
[Measures].[Ex Price] > 0) on rows
from Sales
Thanks in advance..

Hello all, I´m a beginner on AS2005 (but I know pretty well AS2000), I migrated a cube from AS2000 to AS2005 but in this cube I have a Custom Rollup Formula on two levels of my Time dimension (month and week), an example of the week level formula is the next:
iif( [Time].CurrentMember.Name = [Time].CurrentMember.NextMember.Name,
null,
iif( [Time].CurrentMember.Name = [Time].CurrentMember.PrevMember.Name,
Sum({[Time].CurrentMember.Children,[Time].CurrentMember.PrevMember.Children}),
Sum([Time].CurrentMember.Children)
)
)
<<this formula overrides the week aggregations>>
and I really need this but I cannot find on AS2005 where to do the same thing, someone can tell me where can I define Custom Rollup Formulas and how?.
Thanks in advance!

Hello everyone, this is my first post here so hopefully I am not asking a common question.
I am trying to create a flat dataset in SQL 2005. Basically I run a query and I get multiple rows for the same primary key. The query I am running is quite large and has several different tables connected to it, here is a small sample of what it looks like...
Typeid(Primary Key) Individual Address
1 Sam 912 Ave. J
1 Sam 913 Ave. Q
1 Sam 914 Ave. R
2 Mike 1000 Ave. O
3 Jill 1001 Ave. O
I want it to kind of look like this
TypeID Individual Address_1 Address_2 Address_3
1 Sam 912 Ave. J 913 Ave. Q 914 Ave. R
2 Mike 1000 Ave. O
3 Jill 1001 Ave. O
As I said before, this query is pretty big, and has several variables like Address where multiple rows are being taken by one Primary Key.
If it is not possible to do this in SQL 2005, is there a program that may be able to? Right now we are using SPSS as sort of a bandaid... we run the query in small portions like the one in the sample and then restructure the in sections but this takes several hours.
Anyways, thanks for any help that you may be able to provide.
-John
