Introduction to the PowerOLAP^® MDB Server

PowerOLAP^® is a full server, which allows multiple users to share and analyze data concurrently across an Intranet or Internet.

PowerOLAP^® MDB Server executes as a Service on any Intel-based computer running Microsoft Windows 2003 Server or above. The Service Control Program interfaces with the Server, handling management tasks associated with maintaining databases and event/transaction logging.

The server implementation supports multiple-user access over a network to the single or multiple CPU's running the PowerOLAP^® Server. The server CPU will run the necessary software to provide access to a multidimensional database from any PowerOLAP^® Client on the network. The Server component will allow users to read and write data to the server machine, depending on Security Privileges assigned to clients. A configuration diagram appears below.
