Analytical Processing

Availability-noteDeprecated

About this task

Talend DQ Portal provides an access to Online Analytical Processing (OLAP) on the data resulted from the analyses carried on in the Profiling perspective of Talend Studio. In this page, you can easily and selectively extract and view data based on multi-dimensional analytical queries and save the most interesting view.

The Analytical Processing page in the web user interface gives an access to a document with time and indicator dimensions and their corresponding measures (values of threshold indicators). The view can also be displayed in the form of a bar chart.

The below figure illustrates an example of an OLAP document:
