Last week I head the pleasure of attending TechEd North America in Atlanta, both presenting and meeting a lot of our customers. Teched was our great coming out party for the Analysis services Denali release. In this post you can find a lot of references to TechEd sessions and relevant blog posts.
The most important thing to come out of Atlanta is the updated vision and roadmap for the Analysis services team:
Watch the session here, this also includes a general overview of what is new for SSAS in Denali. The corresponding SSAS team blog post here and another interesting one from Chris Webb.
Other interesting sessions are:
- Enriching Your BI Semantic Models Using Data Analysis Expressions (DAX) (very interesting of course 🙂 )
And of course a awesome Crescent session:
Also make sure to check out the BI Power Hour: BI Power Hour which is always fun with demos of the latest technology. More detailed blog post will become available when Denali CTP3 becomes available.
If you want to know when CTP3 for SQL Server Denali (including PowerPivot and SSAS) will become available you can subscribe to a notification here.
Nice presentation Kasper. Usefull for future reference.
Many worries about a possibleend of UDM was not based on reality the number of SSAS adopters is still growing every day but the perception of a lack of commitment by Microsoft on UDM was the real issue.
