Microsoft Analysis Services Data mining webcasts

October 19th, 2007 by Vidas Matelis

I just recently started to learn a bit more about Analysis Services data mining. I am very impressed how Excel 2007 add-ins makes data mining user friendly. All technical stuff is hidden, you just select your data in Excel, run add-in and review results. Behind the scene this add-in generates SSAS data mining model and process it with provided data. Of course, for more complicated stuff you will have to learn SSAS data mining to have a better control on how data mining project is build.

Just today in Microsoft webcast newsletter I noticed that there are 7 Analysis Services data mining webcasts scheduled for November. If you are also interested in this technology, make sure you don’t miss them:
