Data Virtualization options with SQL Server technologies

Please let me know the available options for data virtualization using Microsoft BI Technologies for scenarios where high data volume and complex transformations are involved. I'm looking for a virtualization solution such that there is no persistent DWH
built, no ETL involved and the virtualized layer can be built directly on top of the source databases using which reports can be generated. The main objective is to let the business users generate their reports in real-time/near real-time.
Power Query/ROLAP SSAS/SSAS Tabular with DirectQuery serve as virtualization options but it doesn't appear to be an optimal solution for high data volume/complex transformations. Please share your thoughts if you have any other ideas.

MSBI Dev,
Not sure what you mean by data visualization. If you are talking about an OLAP layer that only contains metadata that sits directly on a OLTP system with large data volumes, I would suggest ROLAP with SSAS. Check out this paper for further details.

Vix file in UI builder doesn't recieve data from Webservice application that communicates with SQL server database

I have created Web service VI ("Prikaz insolacije.vi") which has two input string terminals (FROM / TO) for dates and two output terminals for data (1-D array) collected from database (MS SQL server). This VI communicates with database using functions from database palette with appropriate DSN and SQL query. There are two tables with two data columns (Time and Insolation) in Database.
This VI works when you run it in Labview 2010, but when I used it as sub VI in UI builder it doesn't return any data.
Could you please help me find a solution. Is it possible to communicate with SQL server database this way or there is another way?
There are two attachmet files: Image of .vix file in UI builder and .vi file ("Prikaz insolacije.vi")
Please help me ASAP!
Thanks,
Ivan

Status is False and source string is empty. It behaves like there is no code in VI.
I tried to access web service directly using following URL:

and it doesn' t work. It returns zeros.

BI 7.3 delta extraction with SQL Server 2008

Hi experts,
I'm trying to extract data with delta update from a SQL Server with UD Connect, i test this ways:
Field DateTime in SQL Server: The problem is I only can delta within a day, no changes detected in the same day because SAP detects two fields here date and time, and can only can reference date field as a delta field.
Field TimesTamp in SQL Server: The problem seems the same, SAP recognize this as a date and time field.
Can any explain here the correct way for a delta implementation with SQL Server 2008? I would be very grateful.
Regards,

Hi Fernando
That is what I need to do.
Create a Model from an existing SQL Server database with the Import data Dictionary option , be able to modify tables structures, extended properties in the model, and then sync those changes with the database.
So far I can't import the extended properties with DM 3.1.1. If you find a way , please let me know.
Thanks,

ODI 10.1.3.5 with SQL Server 2005

Good afternoon,
We recently installed 10.1.3.5, in a Windows environment with SQL Server 2005 and Hyperion Essbase/Planning/HFM 11.1.1. We were following John Goodwin's infamous blog (thanks, John!), but ran into a number of snags.
For instance, when we set-up interfaces with flat files as the source, loading metadata either to Planning or Essbase, ODI errors out when:
1) our header name in the flat file has spaces (using double quotes didn't work)
2) our header name in the flat file is different than the reverse property name from Essbase/Planning.
Also, we're now seeing an issue in our Flat file to Essbase metadata interface where the SQL used in the IKM seems to be incorrect. Below is the error message we're receiving:
"org.apache.bsf.BSFException: exception from Jython:
Traceback (innermost last):
File "<string>", line 20, in ?
com.microsoft.sqlserver.jdbc.SQLServerException: An object or column name is missing or empty. For SELECT INTO statements, verify each column has a name. For other statements,
look for empty alias names. Aliases defined as "" or [] are not allowed. Add a name or single space as the alias name."
We are thinking that the culprit may be either the wrong .jar or .jre we're using with SQL Server 2005, as there seem to be inherent issues with the SQL generated in the LKM and IKM. Our questions to you:
1. What sqljdbc.jar driver version are you using?
2. What .jre version are you using?
3. What environment does the above work correctly in? (perhaps an earlier version of ODI against an earlier version of Hyperion?)
FYI - We have tried sqljdbc 1.0 and 2.0, with .jre 1.6.0_10.
Thanks in advance!

Thank you very much for responding!
After a 2 week battle, we are now finally coming to a close on our issues (although we cannot say for sure what all of the causes were).
Here is what we discovered about our questions, through other threads:
1. John Goodwin was using JRE 1.6.x, so we ruled that out as a culprit.
2. Others are using SQL Server 2005 just fine with ODI, so we ruled this out too. We chose to keep the sqljdbc 2.0 driver.
Here are some issues we did uncover during our investigation:
1. We were having issues with our agent, specifically regarding the HFM technology. We created a new one, added a few extra parameters, compiled the agent, and are now back up and running. We realized the problem when we switched to "Local (No Agent)" and saw that we were not having as many issues.
2. We went into the physical agent and pressed "Update Scheduling". We do not know if this had any effect, but we suddenly noticed that our flat file header issues were resolved.
3. The Essbase issue was due to a configuration error with our Hyperion Essbase physical technology. We went into that technology and changed a setting on the "Languages" tab, called "Object Delimiter". It had double-quotes in it - we removed that parameter and instantly saw a change in the SQL being executed.
4. Some of the mappings in our interfaces needed to be executed on different environments. i.e. - We needed to switch to "staging" when the flat file header was different than the target column name. Newbie mistake - we thought ODI had built-in intelligence to choose correctly for us.
5. When doing a reverse on Essbase models, we noticed that the Essbase columns would populate with an "Undefined" datatype, instead of the expected CHAR. We have to manually define all column datatypes after every Essbase reverse now. Must be a bug.
6. We also noticed when doing a flat file reverse that all columns auto-populate with datatype STRING, length 50. We have to manually personalize that option for different Hyperion applications, based on need. i.e. - some require numeric datatypes, or smaller/larger lengths. This was obviously a newbie error. :)
Thank you for your tip on the MS SS2005 JDBC drivers - we will look into your other options - IMHO, JTDS, etc.

Instant Client with SQL Server - HELP!!

G'day all...
My goal is to connect to a server using Oracle Database version 8.1.7.4, from a server which does not have either Oracle Database or the full Oracle Client, preferrably using SQL Server DTS packages.
With that said, I have installed instant client basic and instant client ODBC suppliment on our first development server using the instructions at the following link without any difficulties, although I do admit that I only have a tnsnames.ora file and not a sqlnet.ora file:
http://www.oracle.com/technology/tech/oci/instantclient/instantclient.html
The trouble is, when I attempt to deploy it on any of our other servers it fails. When I attempt to connect using Microsoft ODBC Driver for Oracle in a DTS package in SQL Server I get the following error message:
HResult of 0x8004005 (-2147467259) returned Unexpected error occurred. An error result was returned without an error message.
(Note: This is seen on all other servers I've tried this on except for the first one).
I have also tried setting up a System ODBC connection using the Instant Client driver but it returned this error message:
Unable to connect
SQLState=S1000
[Oracle][ODBC][Ora]ORA-12705: invalid or unknown NLS parameter value specified
In desperation I have also tried installing the Oracle RDB Driver and the Oracle 8.1.7.8.1.0 ODBC driver. Both appear to install successfully yet nothing seems to work.
As far as I can tell,l these are the differences between the first server and the other servers:
- First server is MS SQL Server 2000 version: 8.00.760, rest are 8.00.818
- First server is running MS SQL Server Analysis services, rest are not
- First server is MS Windows 2000 Advanced Server, rest are MS Windows 2000 Server
So my first question: Does anyone know if the Instant Client tool works with SQL Server version: 8.00.818?
My second question: Can anyone else suggest something that I haven't tried yet, short of installing the Full Oracle Client on this server? Not that I'm opposed to doing that, it's just that it's a last resort idea as of now...
Please help - need to roll this into production soon...

Kent, I see that many others have reported that error (doing
a google search), but I see no ready answers. I saw something that
reminded me of a connection string value that I've seen answer some
problems. May be worth a shot for you: try adding this string to
the connection string (in "advanced options") for your datasource:
AuthenticationMethod=Type2
If it doesn't solve it, remove it. But keep it handy in case
it ever may help with some other problem.
Here's one other possible answer for you:

Connecting BI Web Server with SQL Server Express / Visual Studio Express for Report Development

Hi,
My company is using the Report Builder 3.0 to build the BI Reports ( I guess based on SQL Server 2008 R2). Our software vendor has provided us the web URL to access the BI Server. I want to generate the BI Reports with SQL Server Express or Visual
Studio Express instead of Report Builder 3.0. Need some guidance in this regard.
regards, BI.Developer.

Hi,
Based on my research, if we want to open the report from report server to Business Intelligence Development Studio, we should download the report from report manager, then add this item in Business Intelligence Development Studio. For more details, please
see the following steps:
Type the URL in IE browser to access the repot manager.
Browse to the RDL file folder or location.
Hover over the report, and click the drop-down arrow near the RDL file.
Click on download button, the download window will pop up now. Then save the rdl file.
Click Manage option in the drop-down list, make a note of its Data Source Connection string.
Create a Report Server Project in Business Intelligence Development Studio.
Right-click the Reports folder to open the Add Existing Item dialog box, navigate to the location where you saved the .rdl file for the report, and then click Add.
Right-click the Data Source to verify the connection string is correct.
Besides, please make sure that software vendor had assigned ‘View reports’, ’Manage reports’, ‘Manage folder’ and ‘Manage data sources’ tasks for your account, so that you can download the report and view the data source.
If there are any other questions, please feel free to ask.
Thanks,

Has anyone seen this issue before? It is strange, all information indicates the file is good,but somehow it goes wrong.

Hi Albert,
The above error message usually indicates that there is a problem with underlying storage system or the hardware or a driver that is in the path of the I/O request. You can encounter this error when there are inconsistencies in the file system or if the database
file is damaged.
Besides other suggestions, consider to use the
SQLIOSim utility to find out if these errors can be reproduced outside of regular SQL Server I/O requests and change
your databases to use the PAGE_VERIFY CHECKSUM option.

DM 3.1.1 with SQL Server 2008 . Extended Properties not imported .

Hi
I am using Data Modeler 3.1.1 with SQL Server 2008.
I have a database where I have Extended Properties (MS_Description) for the tables and columns.

Can not extract data into BW from SQL SERVER

Dear All,
I meet a problem to extract data from database(MS SQL Server 2000(sp3)) into BW now and can not extract data into BW ODS, even PSA, In the monitor, display yellow light(0 from 0 record), detail message just display message "data request arranged" "confirmed with: confirmation" in requests(message) step; "missing message: request received" in extract (message) step; "no data" in processing(data packet) step and so on. but in fact, there are two records in my database test table and DB connection is OK. Even I can extract data from another test oracle database into BW ODS successfully.
Our BW system has two BW applicaton server and use oracle database. the one application server locates on IBM AIX host. the another one locates on one NT server. the application server on NT server is used for data extration from MS SQL SERVER database into BW oracle database. and MS SQL SERVER and NT platform application server locate on same one host. DBSL was installed on the NT application server already. and DB connector also was created successfully for MS SQL SERVER and datasource also was generated. DBSL type is Kernel640-WIN-IA32bit-unicode. my BW system is ECC5.0/UNICODE/ORACLE. all table/view/field name of MS SQL server is upcase and have not any specific character. for example: ZDEMO etc.
wait your help.
Thanks in advance.

Crystal Report 8.5 with SQL SERVER 2005 problems

Post Author: AREVA
CA Forum: Data Connectivity and SQL
Hi All !We have some problems with Crystal Reports version 8.5 with SQL Server 2005: 1) When we want to generate a report (using data in SQL Server 2005) we have a popup message error : "impossible to loaded pdssql.dll".2) If we want to use SQL Server 2005, which Crystal Reports version we must used ? Is there any restrictions with this connectivity with 8.5 version ?Please, let me known, all informations about SQL Server 2005 and Crystal Report 8.5.Thanks for all !Best regards Anthony

Hello Kamlesh,
There is no expectation that the ActiveX viewer (RDC?) from CR8.5 will work in any version of Visual Studio .NET. There is also no expectation that the ActiveX viewer from CR8.5 will work on a machine with a 64 bit operating system.
You're using VS2008. You should migrate to the bundled edition of CR for VS2008 (v10.5), the ReportDocument object, and the .NET Windows form viewer or Web form viewer.
Sincerely,
Dan Kelleher
