Azure Analysis Services in a day - Gabi Münster

Contents

You are already using SSAS Tabular mode and are interested in moving into the cloud? Or Tabular Mode is on your roadmap and you are not sure if cloud or on-prem is the right strategy for you? Then this full day workshop could be useful. This hands-on day will give you a first insight into possibilities as well as challenges. We will cover the following topics:

• Overview over the current feature set
• Discussion of strengths and weaknesses from a strategic perspective (e.g. calculating a business case, comparison to Multidimensional and Power BI)
• Create your own Azure Analysis Services Instance
• Import an existing tabular model
• Install and register an on-premise gateway for a local data source
• Integrate the model into a corporate BI landscape
• Look into possibilities for maintenance and automation

Hands-on: You’ll need a laptop that allows you to communicate with the Azure portal.
