Excel Update - Beta Version of MDX Provider Now Available

A quick update on using Excel to query an Oracle11g cube ....

Yesterday Simba announced availability beta 1 MDX provider for Oracle OLAP. I've been using prerelease version of the provider for a few months now and have been very happy with it. There's still some features to be added and some performance work to be done, but I think the beta 1 version is well worth trying. In my experience, the MDX provider is pretty stable and I very much like Excel as a front end to Oracle cubes.

To sign up, visit the MDX Provider for Oracle page at http://simba.com/MDX-Provider-for-Oracle-OLAP.htm . You can also find a video demo on this page.
