Analysis Services DevOps using Tabular Editor
2019TL; DR
Tabular Editor, an open source tool for authoring Tabular Models, makes it easier for teams of developers to work on the same model simultaneously. It also provides functionality for automated build and deployment. In short, DevOps for SSAS Tabular.
Session Details
Is it possible for multiple developers to work simultaneously on the same Tabular Model? What about branching strategies? As the native tooling (Visual Studio / SSDT) stores all the model metadata within just a single file, this can cause all sorts of issues in a source controlled environment. In this session, we'll see how Tabular Editor can be used in a team setting to improve parallel development and branche handling. Using Tabular Editors command line options, all of this can be integrated into automated build and release pipelines - even when your developers prefer to stick to SSDT!
Attendees of this session should be familiar with Tabular Model development. Prior experience using Tabular Editor is not required.
