Practical List:

1.            Create around 25 records and design the tabular view using Excel. Create around         25 records and  design the Chart view using Excel.

2.            Extract the data from excel , access and sql and integrate it in SQL server.

3.            Perform the same process using DTS package

4.            Design the star schema and create a cube using OLAP services

5.            Perform the cube analysis on MOLAP

6.            Perform the cube analysis on ROLAP

7.            Perform the cube analysis on   HOLAP

8.            Consider a data warehouse storing data about sales, where the total items sold    are stored, organised by customer order and product. Each customer order includes the name of the customer and the date of the order; each product includes a description of the product and its price.

i.   Devise the relational schema (specifying the relations, the attributes, the primary keys, and the foreign keys) of the above data warehouse using the star schema.

ii.   Write a SQL query to answer the following question: ”Which customer(s) made an order containing at least five products with different descriptions?”

iii.   Write a SQL query for the following report: ”W hich customer(s) made the largest order (i.e., those that would result in the largest bill)?”

iv.   Consider to add a new level product categories to the product dimension. Devise the new relational star schema, and write a SQL query for the following report: ”Select the total number of products sold per product category”.

9.            Design at least five queries for the created cube using MDX application.

10.           Retrieve the cube data into the excel sheet and present the information in tabular and graphical form.
