(where's the Dynamics AX forum?)
I'm a SQL Server BI solution architect that has been called in by a client to extend and manage the cubes that come stock with Dynamics AX. In a word, they're a huge mess. All the objects; cubes, measures, measure groups, dimensions, attributes,
etc. are based on normaized daabase with abuot 2,300 tables - rather than a dimensional data schema. Most of the dimensions are based on relational lookup tables and are not organizd into hierarchies to support drill-down paths.
Just wondering what, if anything, might make sense about this design or the features it contains before I blow the whole thing away and start over again.
- I'm looking for experince with these cubes, stories from the trenches about what has and hasn't worked
- Have you extended these cubes or started over?
