Configuration for Scalability

Configuration for Fault Tolerance

Configuration for Security

Increase ROI on your hardware and software infrastructure investment by:

Leveraging 90+ VLDB switches to increase the performance of your warehouse and BI Apps.

Eliminating redundant processing and maximizing performance by leveraging our levels of cache management – with distinct XML, element, object, and report caching levels – to increase query response time

Achieving optimal load balancing across your web server, network routers, and application servers, through intelligent architecture design

Designing clustering techniques around I-Server to provide broader access to your warehouse through multi-level architecture, intelligent server deployment to take advantage of I-Server’s capabilities, and the ability to tune the distribution scheme based on organizational need

Provide 24x7 reliability to your enterprise users and maximize data integrity with:

Design strategies for I-Server to provide uninterrupted continuity of data warehouse access in the result of isolated network failures through intelligent server deployment and capacity planning, clustering strategies based on expected user demand and scheduling

Effective and efficient load balancing strategies leveraging IP ranges to direct users to specific servers as a means of normalizing demand on any particular server and avoiding system crashes

Architecting clustering strategies for Narrowcast Server Logging Server to handle high report and alerting throughput while tracking all NCS activity and performance

Design bulletproof deployments for sensitive BI analytical apps. using advanced techniques in:

Customizing user security through LDAP and NT integration, or any other directory service, with I-Server through the intelligent development, design and updating of clean user classification structures

Designing pervasive security environments through the configurations of multiple firewalls that don’t impede system performance or desired access

Designing cell-level security systems through MicroStrategy’s own three-tier security architecture, a database’s native security features, as well as database login mapping

Application Design for Portability

Business Intelligence Administration

Application Design for Maintainability

Learn to decrease your resource costs and investment of time in deploying analytical applications through the enterprise by:

Integrating multiple applications on a single metadata

Mapping and implementing the appropriate analytical libraries, based on user requirements gathering, that allow organizations to offer user-defined customer groupings, conditional analytics, data summarization, and other broad-based, highly-valuable analysis sets for users across an enterprise

Optimizing data warehouse-specific schema without relying on rigid application-specific schema

Benchmark your BI administration by:

Learning and deploying best practices for version control and environment migration from development to testing to production with a detailed understanding of optimal object model architecture, UID-based checking, and the creation of dependency trees among your objects<

Leveraging Enterprise Manager to identify and prioritize your data warehouse and application tuning requirements, through the strategic use of 250 separate metrics shipped with the product and indexing strategies built from out-of-the-box reports

Saving time and effort with the use of Command Manager to separate bulk tasks from individual, ad hoc requirements

Develop a stable, cost-effective environment for your analytical applications through:

The development of single-sign-on functionality so security, privacy, and permission are set once

Design of schema-independent analytical applications that can be deployed more rapidly and effectively through your enterprise

Customized implementation of report distribution through enhanced filtering. With proper advisory knowledge to leverage the full capacity of MicroStrategy technology, you can achieve “viewable continuity” so maintaining, testing, migrating and distributing only one report can translate into customized views for varying constituencies.
