“Sandbox” environment for business users to:
Formally integrate data from other systems
View data models that reflect how the business side
sees the world (custom hierarchies, new groupings,
friendly naming, calculations)
Consume “temporal” or one-off data models
Provides an ad-hoc experience optimized for enduser query performance, trending and drill-down
analysis
Ad-hoc queries and frequent monitoring of KPIs
will not load down the transactional database
Interactive dashboards in SharePoint
Linked filters, scorecards, and analytics (keep
everything in-context)
Scorecards
Aggregate disparate metrics on a single scorecard, or
“balanced scorecard”
Measure and monitor data from virtually any tabular
(Excel, ODBC) or multi-dimensional data source
(SSAS)
Flexible, user-defined KPI targets, thresholds, and
scoring

Monitor states, grouped by up/down time. Default
monitor grouping may be re-configured with a T-SQL
CASE statement.
• Up Down Key
• • State Description
Calendar dates and hours of day, with separate
attributes for time-folded analysis (values by hour for
the past week, for example)
• Date by Month (Year, Quarter, Month, Date)
• Date by Week (Year, Week, Date)
• Time (Hours, in 12 hour or 24 hour format)
A dimension that contains dynamic, time-based
calculations
