Who Uses What Cubes and When (The Data Mart Approach)
Background
A few months ago I wrote about “who are using the cube right now” [link]. Perhaps we are trying to find out who is making the server so slow, and what query they are executing.
Today the question is slightly different. We want to know who uses what cubes and when. We want to know not only at present, but over a period of time. There are three different things here: the who, the what, and the when.
The who: how many users do we have? Who are they? From which department, town, and country are they from? Which product family or services are they responsible for? What are their roles (job titles)? Do we have their email addresses?
