Topics of Microsoft 70-466: Implementing Data Models and Reports with Microsoft SQL Server Exam

Candidates must know the exam topics before they start of preparation. because it will really help them in hitting the core. Our Microsoft 70-466: Implementing Data Models and Reports with Microsoft SQL Server Exam exam dumps will include the following topics:

1. Build an analysis services multidimensional database (35-40%)

Design dimensions and measures

• Given a requirement, identify the dimension/measure group relationship that should be selected; design patterns for representing business facts and dimensions (many-to-many relationships); design dimensions to support multiple related measure groups (many related fact tables); handle degenerate dimensions in a cube; identify the attributes for dimensions; identify the measures; aggregation behavior for the measures; build hierarchies; define granularity of dimension relationships

Implement and configure dimensions in a cube

• Translations, define attribute relationships, implement hierarchies, implement SQL Server Analysis Services (SSAS) dimensions and cubes, create the Attribute Relationships that should be made for a given set of attributes in a dimension, develop new custom attributes on dimensions, detect possible design flaws in attribute relationships, implement time dimensions in cubes, manage SSAS parent-child dimensions, dimension type

Create Multidimensional Expressions (MDX) and Data Analysis Expressions (DAX) queries

• Identify the structures of MDX and the common functions (tuples, sets, TopCount, SCOPE, and more); identify which MDX statement would return the required result; implement a custom MDX or logical solution for a pre-prepared case task; identify the structure of DAX and common functions, including CALCULATE, EVALUATE, and FILTER; identify which DAX query would return the required result

Implement custom logic in a data model

• Define key performance indicators (KPIs); define calculated members; create relative measures (growth, YoY, same period last year), percentage of total using MDX; named sets; add Time Intelligence; implement ranking and percentile; define MDX script to import partial PowerPivot model

Implement storage design in a multidimensional model

• Create aggregations, create partitions, storage modes, define proactive caching, manage write-back partitions, implement linked cubes, implement distributed cubes

Select an appropriate model for data analysis

• Select Tabular versus Multidimensional based on scalability needs, traditional hierarchical, data volume; select appropriate organizational BI, such as corporate BI, and team and personal BI needs and data status

2. Manage, maintain, and troubleshoot a SQL Server Analysis Services (SSAS) database (15-20%)

Analyze data model performance

• Identify performance consequences of data source view design, optimize performance by changing the design of the cube or dimension, analyze and optimize performances of an MDX/DAX query, optimize queries for huge data sets, optimize MDX in the calculations, performance monitor counters, select appropriate Dynamic Management Views for Analysis Services, analyze and define performance counters, monitor growth of the cache, define and view logging options

Deploy SSAS databases

• Deployment Wizard, implement SSDT-BI, deploy SSMS; test solution post deployment, decide whether or not to process, test different roles

Install and maintain an SSAS instance

• Install SSAS; install development tools; identify development and production installation considerations; upgrade SSAS instance; define data file and program file location; plan for Administrator accounts; define server and database level security; support scale-out read-only; update SSAS (service packs); install and maintain each instance type of Analysis Services, including PowerPivot; restore and import PowerPivot; back up and restore by using PowerShell

3. Build a tabular data model (15-20%)

Implement a tabular data model

• Define tables, import data, define calculated columns, define relationships, define hierarchies and perspectives, manage visibility of columns and tables, embed links, optimize BISM for Power View, mark a date table, sort a column by another column

Implement business logic in a tabular data model

• Implement measures and KPIs, implement Data Analysis Expressions (DAX), define relationship navigation, implement time intelligence, implement context modification

Implement data access for a tabular data model

• Manage partitions, processing, select xVelocity versus DirectQuery for data access

4. Build a report with SQL Server Reporting Services (SSRS) (25-30%)

Design a report

• Select report components (crosstab report, Tablix, design chart, data visualization components), design report templates (Report Definition Language), identify the data source and parameters; design a grouping structure; drill-down reports, drill-through reports; determine if any expressions are required to display data that is not coming directly from the data source
