IBM Cognos Cube Designer

( Duration: 2 Days )

The IBM Cognos Cube Designer - Design Dynamic Cubes training course provides skills to model metadata for predictable reporting and analysis results using IBM Cognos Cube Designer. You will learn the full scope of the metadata modeling process, from initial project creation, to publishing dynamic cubes and enabling end users to easily author reports and analyze data.

Knowledge of dimensional modeling and design. Experience using the IBM Cognos Analytics portal and Administration.

The IBM Cognos Cube Designer - Design Dynamic Cubes workshop is intended for Data Modelers and Administrators who design dynamic cubes who are used to develop applications in the IBM Cognos environment.
