SQL Server Data Warehouse Creation External or Build Your own

Hi,
In our firm we have a data warehouse which has been created by an external supplier.
The warehouse is being used for some reporting and dashboards but only for a single client, we have yet to fully utilize it.
My question is should we build a new data warehouse or should we push forward with the data warehouse created by the external supplier. I know it would take some time to build a data warehouse however it means we will have full control over it and could
overcome any issues we have with it in house.
It would really help if someone could offer some advice.
Thanks

Hi Nasa1999,
I am trying to involve someone more familiar with this topic for a further look at this issue. Sometime delay might be expected from the job transferring. Your patience is greatly appreciated.
Thank you for your understanding and support.

SSDT - SQL Server Data Tools - display issue

In SSDT 2010 SSAS project, Dimension Usage --> Define Relationship window
The display has problem to see everything. In the "Define Relationship" windows, the Relationship section overlap the measure group table display. I can only see upper half the measure group table font.
Can someone help to let me know what is the issue?

Hi Tie,
According to your description, there are some display problems when you design a SQL Server Analysis Services project in SQL Server Data Tools, right?
In your scenario, does this issue occur on only this project or all the projects? In your scenario, please create a sample SSAS project and then check if this issue occurs on the new project or not?
If this issue occurs on only this project, then the issue is related to your cube structure, please to restart SSDT to check if this issue persists or not. If the issue persists, please provide us more information about your cube settings.
If this issue occurs on all the projects, then the issue is related to SSDT. To avoid this issue, you can use SQL Server Data Tools – Business Intelligence for Visual Studio 2012 to build you SSAS project. It available on the link below

Create SQL server data source programmatially

Hi,
I'd like to create a SQL server data source programmatically in LabVIEW. The SQL server version I used is 2005. Can anyone give some ideas? A code example will be most favorable.
Thanks,
Jane
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Dan put it well. All you need is a connection string and those are easy to build. There are even a couple website that do nothing but publish template connection strings for every DBMS on the planet.
The only point I would quibble over is about using the database connectivity toolkit. The DCT is an unnecessary complication that is ultimately counter productive because it limits your support options. When I get into the office in a few hours I will post a link to an alternative that actually simplifies the process and is free.

SSIS: To run a SSIS package outside of SQL Server Data Tools you must install SCR - DP1 Connections of Integration Services or higher

We have SSIS installed on a machine that is not part of a cluster but it is accessible by the cluster.
Our job we have running on the cluster is failing with the following error:
Error: 2014-01-31 09:14:37.52 Code: 0xC000F427 Source: SCR - DP1 Connections
Description: To run a SSIS package outside of SQL Server Data Tools you must install SCR - DP1 Connections of Integration Services or higher. End Error
Any advice or information on how to resolve this would be great.
Many Thanks.

Hi NessaBella,
Integration Services service is not a cluster-aware service, and does not support failover from one cluster node to another. Therefore, in a clustered environment, Integration Services should be installed and started as a stand-alone service on each node
in the cluster.
Based on the error message, it seems that SSIS is not installed on the cluster node on which the job was running. Although SSIS is installed on a machine that is not part of the cluster and can be accessed by each cluster node, the SSIS service installed
on a remote server cannot be used a cluster node. So, please install the shared feature SQL Server Integration Services on each cluster node. Besides, if certain packages need to run in 32-bit mode in certain jobs and the SQL Server installed is 64-bit version,
you also need to install BIDS/SSDT on the cluster node to get the 32-bit runtime of SSIS.

System Center 2012 R2 install: SQL server Data file and log file

This might be a dumb question, but I can't find the answer anywhere.
I'm installing a new instance of System Center 2012 R2 on a new server, I'm stuck on the SQL Server data file section. Everytime I put in a path, it says that tne path does not exist. I'm I supposed to be creating some sort of SQL Server
data file and log file before this installation, I didn't get this prompt when installing System Center 2012 SP1 or hen I upgraded from System Center 2012 SP1 to System Center 2012 R2
My SQL is on a different server
Thank you in advanced

Have you reviewed the setup.log?
On a side note, why would you put the database file on the same drive as the OS? That defeats the whole purpose of having a remote SQL Server. Why use a remote SQL Server in the first place.

SQL Server Data Tools – Business Intelligence for Visual Studio 2013 (SSDT BI) and SSIS on SQL Server 2012

This great blog entry titled
SQL Server Data Tools - Business Intelligence for Visual Studio 2013 (SSDT BI), link below, highlights the lack of support for SSIS projects using SQL Server 2012, VS 2013 and SSDT BI for VS 2013. I see there is a new version
on SSDT BI for VS 2013 (12.0.2430.0, File Name: SSDTBI_x86_ENU.exe, Date Published: 10/27/2014) link below.
Does this version support SSIS projects using SQL Server 2012 using VS 2013 and SSDT BI for VS 2013?

Hi cjrinpdx,
According to the picture, it seems that we can use SSIS 2012 support is not included in SSDT-BI for VS 2013. And based on the previous versions, SSIS always different from SSRS, SSAS.
SSDT-BI for Visual Studio 2012 supports versions of SQL Server as follows:
SSAS project can target SQL 2012 or lower
SSRS project can target SQL 2012 or lower
SSIS project can target only SQL 2012
The following blog is for your reference:

Since I have no environment to test this at this moment,
I recommend you that submit the feedback at

Thank you for your understanding.

Association rule in SQL Server Data Mining

I have been working on a problem on association rules in SQL Server Data Tools (Visual Studio 2008) for quite a while but have not yet been able to figure out the solution.
The problem is: I have a table named Sales_history in my SQL database. This table has following columns: CustomerID, ItemID, Month (from May2012 to April 2013), QtyShipped. I am looking to find association between Items and i want to provide recommendation
to the Customer (In this case CustomerID) based on their purchases.
Note: there are around 630 customers and about 34000 products in my table.
My approach:
I marked History_Table as both Key and nested. And in the Key, i checked CustomerID as input and Key whereas in nested, i checked ItemId as Key, input and Predict.
When i run the model, i get a solution but i am not sure if i am configuring it right. Also i am not sure how i can write prediction join query to generate Item recommendations . I am really struggling with
this problem, eagerly waiting for the reply. Thank you.

Hi Tatyana,
Thank you so much for your reply. I have now been able to create the data mining model using association rule and by writing a DMX query, i am able to generate the item recommendations to be given to customers for items they have purchased. However, i have
noticed one thing that in the DMX query, it gives the same item recommendation for any item i put inside the query.
Also, if i put any item in the DMX query from the generated list of recommended items, the output of that query also shows the item that is inputted inside the query.
Here is the query, that i am writing to generate item recommendations
SELECT predictassociation (CrossSellingModelV3.[Ztb Customer Item v3],INCLUDE_STATISTICS,5)
FROM CrossSellingModelV3
NATURAL PREDICTION JOIN
(SELECT
(SELECT '17IS56126' as m )
AS Ms)
AS t
What can be the possible reason behind this? Is this something related to the kind of data i have? In my data, there are 632 distinct customers and 34000 distinct products.
If i execute this query in management studio.
select customer_CD, COUNT(Item_CD) from ztb_Sales_History
group by customer_CD
order by 2 desc
the output shows that there are some customers who have bought just 1 item and also there are customers who have bought 2400 items. i mean the range is very high.
