Exologic CubePort - migration from Hyperion Essbase to Microsoft SQL Server Analysis Services

Enables either migration or replication from Hyperion Essbase to Microsoft SQL Server Analysis Services (supports SSAS 2005 and 2008 versions).

CubePort™, The Analytics Porting Application, is the most comprehensive software tool available in the marketplace for customers migrating or replicating from Hyperion Essbase to Microsoft SQL Server Analysis Services. The software richly ports and consistently employs best-practices to convert almost every aspect of an Essbase application/cube to the Microsoft product. CubePort™ uses its patent-pending Analogy Mapping technology to achieve a clean, easy-to-manage translation. Since its introduction, CubePort has won over the skeptics and exceeded the expectations of eventual adoptors.

CubePort is the only comprehensive answer in the marketplace to the lack of effective portability in the BI space. The product has set a very high standard for this new product class, invented, innovated, and marketed by ExoLogic. In practical terms, many customers are made captive by the many proprietary structures, syntaxes, and models embedded into many BI products. In the hopes of solving their many day-to-day business problems, such captive customers have little choice but to continually introduce more and more components and other BI toolsets to their architectures. This is done without the realization that software that they already own (in the form of SQL Server Analysis Services working with their existing relational database, such as Oracle or SQL Server) may effectively solve such business and technical problems.

CubePort allows in a very practical manner the recouping of years' worth of investments made into in-production data marts, with the option of running in parallel, and without necessarily disrupting current ETL processes and data warehousing architectures.

This saves customers the time and expense of converting cubes manually. No other tool offers this level of automation.

Integrated Best-practices, by Design:
When using CubePort, the resultant cubes are consistent high-quality re-builds of the original cubes. The many integrated best-practices are reliably applied to each and every cube and take special advantage of the things that Analysis Services does well, such as dimension sharability, cube processing times, management of cubes, etc. As a knowledgable, experienced consultant would, CubePort always applies features that make sure the cubes are high-performing and kept at a low maintenence.
