I guess I need to clarify my statement about using the cubes in both Oracle and SQLServer. What I have been told by my boss is that we want to be able to use 1 tool to create our cubes, such as the Analysis Manager, and then be able to distribute those cubes in our product for use with SQLServer and Oracle databases. Some of our customers have SQLServer and some have Oracle. We don't want to have to create the same cubes twice so as to use them with the different databases. I am also trying to figure out where I should put these cubes I convert into local cubes so the SQL database can see them to have access to the cube data. Also, is MDX the best way to access the data from these cubes?
