You design a Business Intelligence (BI) solution by using SQL Server 2008. A SQL Server 2008 Analysis
Services (SSAS) solution contains a cube that has the following objects:
Dimensions named DimCustomer, DimProduct, and DimGeography Measures named InternetSales and
TotalSales
Users run reports against all dimensions and measures by authenticating with their Windows accounts.
You need to provide a basic view of data to the users to display only DimGeography, DimProduct, and
TotalSales by using the least amount of storage space.
What should you do?
You design a Business Intelligence (BI) solution by using SQL Server 2008. The SQL Server 2008 Integration
Services (SSIS) developers use a SQL Server 2008 instance as the primary development environment.
All the SSIS packages contain data connection managers that use SQL Server authentication to extract data.
The packages are saved by using the EncryptAllWithUserKey package protection level.You plan a package
migration strategy from the development environment to a production environment. Migration will be performed
by using an automated script.
You need to ensure that the packages execute without error in the production environment.
What should you do?
You design a Business Intelligence (BI) solution by using SQL Server 2008. A SQL Server 2008 Reporting
Services (SSRS) instance contains a report. Employees execute the report by using Report Manager.
Each employee has his own specific set of parameters to execute the report. Data for the report is updated
once daily. For each employee, the report takes more than five minutes to execute. You discover that data
retrieval takes most of the time during report execution. You need to reduce the execution time of the report.
What should you do?
You design a Business Intelligence (BI) solution by using SQL Server 2008. Users have no specialized
knowledge of the Transact-SQL (T-SQL) language.
You plan to create a reporting solution by using SQL Server 2008 Reporting Services (SSRS). You have data
stored in a SQL Server 2008 relational data warehouse. You need to ensure that users are able to create the
necessary reports by using data from the data warehouse.
What should you do?
You design a Business Intelligence (BI) solution by using SQL Server 2008. You design a SQL Server 2008
Reporting Services (SSRS) report that meets the following requirements:
-Displays sales data for the last 12 months.
-Enables users to view the sales information summarized by month.
-Enables users to view individual sales orders for any given month.
You need to design the report to minimize the impact on bandwidth.
What should you do?
You design a Business Intelligence (BI) solution by using SQL Server 2008. You have created an extract,
transform, and load (ETL) solution by using SQL Server 2008 Integration Services (SSIS). The solution
contains 10 child packages and a parent package that executes the child packages in sequence.
You plan to deploy the solution to 20 locations that are not connected to each other. You need to deploy the
solution by configuring the connection managers of all packages with the appropriate settings. You need to
achieve this goal by using the minimum amount of administrative effort.
What should you do?
You design a Business Intelligence (BI) solution by using SQL Server 2008. The solution will contain a total of
100 different reports created by using Report Definition Language (RDL).
Each report must meet the following requirements:
-Display a common set of calculations based on a parameter value.
-Provide a method for setting values on a report URL or in a subscription definition that are not exposed to a
user.
-The business rules for all reports that determine the calculations change frequently.
You need to design a solution that meets the requirements. You need to perform this action by using the
minimum amount of development and maintenance effort.
What should you do?
You design a Business Intelligence (BI) solution by using SQL Server 2008. You design a SQL Server 2008
Analysis Services (SSAS) solution by using SQL Server 2008. The solution uses a source database that
contains a table named Customer. The Customer table has multiple columns.
You have read-only access to the database.
You plan to reduce the number of columns in the Customer table. You need to split the Customer table to be
distributed across multiple table definitions.
What should you do?
You are the administrator of your company network. You use SQL Server 2008 to develop a
Business Intelligence (BI) solution. You use SQL sever 2008 to work out a SQLServer 2008
Analysis Services (SSAS) solution. There??s a dimension named DimCustomer that represents
customers in the solution. The solution provides a list of top 8 customers in terms of the sales
amount. End users of the solution use filters in Microsoft Excel worksheet to analyze data. You
have to make sure that when the filters are applied, the list is updated. So which named set
expression should you use?
