Course Overview

This Specialization focuses on data architecture abilities, becoming increasingly important in various technology sectors. You'll master the fundamentals of structured data modeling, receive hands-on SQL coding experience, and understand data warehouse design and manipulation. You'll have the chance to construct dashboards and Visual Analytics with massive data sets in a data warehouse environment. To construct dashboards and Visual Analytics, you'll utilize MicroStrategy, a prominent BI solution with OLAP (online analytical processing) and Visual Insights features. You'll utilize your abilities to build a small, basic data warehouse, load it with data, and create dashboards and other visualizations to evaluate and present the data to a wide audience.

MicroStrategy Desktop & Architect ( Project Design)

  • Project design process from designing the logical data model and physical schema for the data warehouse to creating a project in MicroStrategy Architect.
  • Project creation process, including how to work with tables, facts, attributes, and user hierarchies to create a fully functioning MicroStrategy project.
  • Hands-on practice in designing and creating MicroStrategy projects through a series of exercises.
  • Extend the architecture of a MicroStrategy project by creating aggregate fact tables, using multiple data sources, and defining advanced schema objects.

Microstrategy Desktop ( Reporting and Advanced Reporting )

  • Learn the foundations of the MicroStrategy analytical architecture.
  • Develop reports, filters, metrics, and prompts using MicroStrategy Developer interface for core reporting needs.
  • Drill, sort, subtotal, and modify in-memory data for optimized report views and analytical comprehension.
  • Build complex reports by creating advanced metrics and filters, defining Intelligent Cubes, and modifying report data options.
  • Understand how the MicroStrategy Engine develops Structured Query Language (SQL) to gather data in a variety of reporting scenarios.
  • Learn methods for tuning and optimizing report performance using Very Large Database (VLDB) properties
  • Learn how to create a dashboard in Visual Insight to explore your data and discover trends or anomalies.
  • Create reports in MicroStrategy Developer by composing your own queries using Free-Form SQL

MicroStrategy Report Services: Documents and Dashboards

  • Features and functionality of MicroStrategy Web™, focusing using MicroStrategy Report Services™ to create dashboards and documents.
  • Learn how to create documents, add datasets, various objects such as grids, graphs, text boxes, images, as well as implementation of OLAP services features within your document Students will also design and use dashboard features, such as panel stacks, selectors, and dashboard templates.
  • Flash-specific features, such as widgets, and Flash-specific formatting options. Finally, the course illustrates useful document designing techniques.

MicroStrategy Web (Reporting )

  • Understand MicroStrategy Web features and determine how to interact with reports, dashboards, and mobile apps at a high level.
  • Develop reports, filters, prompts, and metrics in MicroStrategy Web to analyze data and publish reports to other users.
  • Determine how to manipulate existing reports, define custom formatting, and linking between multiple reports using MicroStrategy Web.

MicroStrategy Features (new in Version 10) and Other Tools

  • Enhanced reporting and visualizations capabilities in Web, Desktop, Mobile, and Transaction Services.
  • Administrators will discover expanded feature sets to help tackle big data, improve performance, and have comprehensive monitoring through the new Operations Manager.
  • MicroStrategy Integrity Manager, MicroStrategy Command Manager and Object Migration
