SSAS can be called as a repository which holds the data needed for analysis.It is different from an OLTP database.Like in our case we have a replication set up which populates the warehouse & cubes are designed to analyze the data.PBUH |

also it's got some canned algorithms for datamining. so you can build models to predict things like "what age group is most likely to buy widgets" elsasoft.org |
