IBM Cognos Cube Designer - Design Dynamic Cubes (v11.0)

Code: J4063G-SPVC

Overview

Contains: PDF course guide, as well as a lab environment where students can work through demonstrations and exercises at their own pace.

This course provides participants with introductory to advanced knowledge of how to model metadata for predictable reporting and analysis results using IBM Cognos Cube Designer. Participants will learn the full scope of the metadata modeling process, from initial project creation, to publishing a dynamic cube, and enabling end users to easily author reports and analyze data.
