OLAP for LightSwitch includes tools for easy BI application development:
OLAP means "online analytical processing". It refers to technologies that enable the dynamic visualization and analysis of data.
Typical OLAP tools include "OLAP cubes" and pivot tables such as the ones provided by Microsoft Excel. These tools take large sets of data and summarize it by grouping records based on a set of criteria. For example, an OLAP cube might summarize sales data grouping it by product, region, and period. In this case, each grid cell would display the total sales for a particular product, in a particular region, and for a specific period. This cell would normally represent data from several records in the original data source.
OLAP tools allow users to redefine these grouping criteria dynamically (on-line), making it easy to perform ad-hoc analysis on the data and discover hidden patterns. They can use pre-defined views or create and save new ones. Any changes to the underlying data are reflected automatically in the views, and users can create and share reports showing these views. In short, OLAP is a tool that provides flexible and efficient data analysis.
