Record details and sources

Overview

SSAS provides semantic modeling for analytics through multidimensional (OLAP cubes) and tabular models, enabling fast aggregations and governed metrics. It integrates with Microsoft BI tools and supports DAX/MDX depending on model type. SSAS is often used to centralize business logic, improve query performance, and provide a consistent layer for reporting.
