Hi,

What is the relationship between the Cube and the ETL process? Does the ETL process fill the cube or it fills the data source that cube connects to?

Thanks a lot

General steps ETL process populates the Table (Fact and dimension), Cube uses the fact and dimension table and does aggregation for faster data retrieval. TSQL \ SSIS is used to populate the tables, MDX is used to query the cube.
