Front end applications for examining/digging through a SQL Analysis Services Mining Model.

Question

I currently use Excel and SQL Server Business intelligence studio to browse my models, but I've been searching high and low for a decent, moderately user-friendly front end application that can be used for trudging through a SSAS Mining Model.

I understand how to use the predictions for specific purposes (such as integrating with call queues and such) but the higher-ups are wanting to use the mining model in a more ad-hoc sense.

What applications are available for browsing a mining model and which ones have you used?

Answer 1

You can use Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio and select Analysis Service under the Server Type.
