Build, develop, and deploy applications.

MicroStrategy offers over 350 out-of-the-box analytical functions. These include sophisticated data mining algorithms that can be used to define powerful predictive, segmentation, association, and time series metrics within MicroStrategy. These metrics can be applied for statistical analysis, modeling techniques, and machine learning to identify hidden patterns in enterprise data.

MicroStrategy can also leverage predictive and data mining models from third-party tools, including R and other Predictive Model Markup Language (PMML) models. By converting the output generated by these tools, users can take advantage of previous work directly in their BI applications.

MicroStrategy provides a powerful set of tools that make it easy to develop custom enterprise applications. Developing these applications requires powerful graphical interfaces for creating and assembling building blocks like: metrics, attributes, hierarchies, and autostyles.

Once these reusable building blocks have been created, developers can leverage them across the various reports, grids, maps, and dashboards that make up an application.

Command Manager is a powerful tool that reduces the time and effort spent by IT on routine maintenance and administrative tasks. It uses text commands to change multiple configuration settings as part of an automated, reusable script.

Command Manager allows administrators to:

• Add, remove, or modify users or user groups.
• Grant or revoke user privileges, create security filters, and disable user accounts.
• Start, stop, or restart the Intelligence Server, configure clusters, and disconnect active sessions.
• Create, modify, and delete database instances, connections, and logins.
• List or kill jobs, delete caches, manage folders, and update project schema.
• Trigger an event to run scheduled reports.

The data enrichment tool allows users to clean and transform data in order to prepare it for analysis. It recommends transformation functions based on context and a user’s interactions with their data.

Analysts can leverage an extensive library of built-in functions to quickly format data from directly within the MicroStrategy interface, all without any knowledge of scripting.

A history script records every transformation applied during the data preparation process. This script is stored with the dataset and can be reapplied anytime the dataset is refreshed.

MicroStrategy makes it easy to manage objects across the project lifecycle, from development, to testing, to production. Object Manager is a drag-and-drop interface that allows administrators to automate the process of copying objects within or across projects.

If the object being copied does not exist in the destination project, Object Manager copies the object into that project. If the object being copied does exist in the destination project, then the user is prompted to choose one of the following options: replace the destination object, keep the source object, or keep both.

MicroStrategy makes the installation of the platform quick and easy. Our installation process seamlessly bundles system prerequisites, completes the required installation routines, and configures a standardized version of MicroStrategy.

There are two types of installation:

• Express Install: The Express option installs the MicroStrategy Platform with all the features of analytics, mobility, and Usher security in a Windows environment. This option is specifically designed for deployments of up to 15-20 concurrent users
• Custom Install: The custom option allows administrators to customize their setup experience by installing a subset of MicroStrategy components that are more closely aligned to the needs of their organization

Both install types support the Silent Install option, where the install is carried out seamlessly without any GUI.

The modeling tool allows architects to transform a complex enterprise data environment into a unified logical data model.

The logical data model is composed of data abstraction objects (attributes, dimensions, etc.) that can be reused across projects, reports, dashboards, and applications.

A logical data model represents the definitions, characteristics, and relationships of data across an enterprise environment in business terms that any user can understand.

With the modeling tool, architects can map the physical database schema, model data based on business requirements and terminology, and build complex hierarchies to organize data and better reflect relationships.

Operations Manager is a web-based tool that allows administrators to monitor every environment in a MicroStrategy deployment. The interface enables users to quickly and easily view usage patterns, system resources, uptime, and alerts across multiple environments. Operations Manager collects information from each environment’s Health Center, and presents key usage and performance information using graphs and charts.

Administrators can also define thresholds for system usage and performance that automatically trigger alerts when threshold criteria are met or exceeded.

MicroStrategy provides a suite of tools for developing and deploying reports and dashboards. Users can leverage either the desktop or web interface to build, edit, and format these business documents.

The zero-footprint Web interface extends MicroStrategy’s design capabilities even further with a full WYSIWYG design interface. This allows developers to build business scorecards, interactive dashboards, analytical applications, and other pixel-perfect documents.

With WYSIWYG control over formatting and design, users can include any combination of filters, panel stacks, dynamic text, selectors, transactional fields, HTML containers, and multimedia content to fully customize their documents.

MicroStrategy enables organizations to automate integrity testing across thousands of reports, dashboards, and enterprise applications. Integrity Manager is an automated tool that compares the data, outputs, and execution times of two versions of the same report.

Integrity Manager can be used to determine how specific changes in a project environment, such as regular maintenance or upgrades, affect the reports and documents within a project.

With Integrity Manager, it’s easy to compare reports and applications between development and production projects and fix any issues before moving forward. Integrity Manager is designed to handle thousands of reports, so testing that previously took weeks or months can be accomplished overnight with MicroStrategy.

With MicroStrategy it’s easy for users to transform traditional grids into compelling visualizations. MicroStrategy comes with a large selection of out-of-the-box charts, maps, and graphs and can easily be supplemented with custom-built and 3rd party visualizations.

With Visual Insight, users can explore and visualize data without needing advanced dashboard design skills or direct support from IT. Users can easily view and interact with data and use filters and selectors to manipulate the subset of data that is displayed in each visualization.
