Explorando los sabores de Analysis Services PowerPivot, Tabular y Multidimensional

Hace unos días tuve la oportunidad de presentar en el Capítulo Virtual de PASS en Español (SpanishPASSVC) - t:SpanishPASSVC - acerca de los Sabores de Analysis Services. Si se la perdieron o quieren revisarla, aquí el video bajo demanda.

El concepto del Unified Dimensional Modeling (UDM) fue introducido en Analysis Services 2005 como una capa semántica para facilitar el desarrollo de cubos OLAP de fuentes diversas. En Analysis Services 2012 se introduce el concepto del Business Intelligence Semantic Model (BISM) como una evolución al UDM ofreciendo dos “sabores”: Multidiemnsional y Tabular. El BISM representa el corazón de la estrategia de Inteligencia de Negocios de Microsoft. Esta sesión explicara los conceptos básicos de Analysis Services 2014 y PowerPivot. Discutiremos los diferentes escenarios que permitirán a desarrolladores y arquitectos de BI a tomar mejores decisiones al momento de desarrollar los cimientos de la estrategia empresarial para el análisis de sus datos.

Aquí los slides usados en la presentación:
 

Así mismo, los invito a visitar el Canal del SpanishPASSVC en YouTube donde encontrarán excelentes videos adicionales de las pasadas presentaciones.

Anuncio: Nuevos Mentores Regionales de PASS para Latino América

Hola a todos, espero que hayan recibido este nuevo 2014 con mucha alegría y con las ganas de seguir siendo mejor cada día (en todo aspecto de sus vidas). Para mi este año empieza con nuevas emociones, una de ellas es la satisfacción y agradecimiento por haber sido nombrado como Mentor Regional de PASS para Latinoamérica para este 2014. Me acompañan en esta nueva aventura un excelente equipo de profesionales reconocidos en el mundo de SQL Server en nuestro idioma, con los cuales esperamos seguir haciendo crecer a los Capítulos de nuestra región y asimismo seguir difundiendo el conocimiento y acceso al aprendizaje o a la obtención de mayores beneficios de SQL Server en nuestros paises.

Con autorización de Karla Landrum de PASS, comparto a continuación parte del email de anuncio oficial donde se reconoce la gran labor de mis buenos amigos del equipo anterior (Jesús, Mary, John y Carlos), e informa de los nuevos integrantes (la parte introductoria de la comunicación ha sido traducida al Español para facilitar la lectura).

Seguimos en contacto a través de este blog y de PASS LATAM!

Hello LATAM Chapter Leaders,

"Les anunciamos al nuevo equipo de Mentores Regionales (MR) de PASS para la región de LATAM para el 2014, pero primero que nada, únanse a mi para extenderle un gran aplauso al equipo de MR que ha representado a su región por muchos años. Ellos han hecho un tremendo trabajo en construir conciencia y crecimiento de PASS a través de los capítulos y eventos de SQL Server para LATAM. PASS agradece a Jesús Gil, Mary Arcia, John Bulla y Carlos Farías por todo su esfuerzo en construir las bases para PASS LATAM. Ustedes son la razón principal de los éxitos vistos en su región. Felicitaciones a todos ustedes por todo lo que han hecho, y continuarán haciendo en sus carreras y en la comunidad SQL Server de PASS.

Otro cambio, específico a Brasil, es la partida de Luciano Moreira. Luciano pasó el último año trabajando de manera cercana con Laerte Junior en continuar el crecimiento de los capítulos locales y eventos SQL Saturday en Brasil. Luciano además llevó el primer evento SQL Saturday a su ciudad Brasilia, con una calurosa asistencia de cerca de 500 personas. ¡Fabuloso! Gracias Luciano por todo lo has hecho para ayudar a continuar con el crecimiento de PASS en Brasil.

Extiendan sus agradecimientos a aquellos Mentores Regionales quienes los ayudaron a ser exitosos.

Con algunos "big shoes to fill" ("espacios grandes que llenar"¿?), es tiempo de anunciar quiénes son los próximos en el rol de Mentor Regional para LATAM comenzando en enero 2014. Por favor, demos la bienvenida a..."

-----

We have a new PASS Regional Mentor team to announce for the LATAM region for 2014, but first, please join me in extending a huge round of applause to the RM team that has represented your region for many years. They have done a tremendous job in building the awareness and growth of PASS through chapters and SQL Server events for the LATAM. PASS wants to “thank” Jesus Gil, Mary Arcia, John Bulla, and Carlos Farias for all their efforts in building the foundation for LATAM PASS. You were the core reason to the successes seen in your region. Congrats to all of you, and all you have done and will continue to do in your careers and in the PASS SQL Server community.

Another change, specific to Brasil, is the departure of Luciano Moreira. Luciano spent the last year working closely with Laerte Junior in continuing the growth of chapters and SQLSaturdays in Brasil, Luciano even bringing the very first SQLSaturday to his home city of Brasilia, with an overwhelming attendance of nearly 500. Fabulous! Thanks Luciano for everything you’ve done to help to continue to grow PASS in Brasil.

Be sure to extend your “thanks” to those Regional Mentors who have helped you become successful.

With some “big shoes to fill” (I hope you all know this expression J), it’s time to announce who is next in the role as Regional Mentors for LATAM beginning January 2014. Please welcome…
