BI Semantic Model (BISM)
• A data model
• Semantic layer on top of source data
• Shields the complexity of back-end data sources
• Enables report creation without writing SQL, MDX, or DAX queries
• The design vision
• The one model that powers all end-user experiences
• Can be accessed in an intuitive way using Reporting Services, Power View,
PowerPivot, Excel, SharePoint, etc.

What is the BISM?
• PowerPivot
• SSAS multidimensional model
• SSAS tabular model

PowerPivot (or Power Pivot)
• Embedded in Excel and SharePoint 2013
• xVelocity engine - the SSAS engine with an in-memory database
• Stores data in a highly-compressed format in memory
• No row limit
• Storage limit of 2GB (SharePoint limit)
• Significantly improves performance of analysis
• Can be deployed to SharePoint for collaboration
• Can be used as a data source

Tabular Model vs. Multidimensional Model
• The Multidimensional Model is the traditional OLAP cube
• Tabular Model – Essentially the server version of PowerPivot
• Data persisted in memory
• DAX
• Xvelocity engine
• Separate products• Different design experiences
• Different underlying data architectures
• Both provide a semantic layer on top of your Data Warehouse with high performance capabilities 15

Tabular Model – Advantages & Limitations
• Advantages
• Faster in most cases
• Can directly import PowerPivot models
• DAX is considered easier than MDX
• Can be used as a data source by any reporting tool that can report against cubes
• Easier to develop and maintain
• More agile
• Limitations
• Requires SQL Server BI or Enterprise edition
• Data size limited by RAM
• Complex modeling best done in Multidimensional Model
• Advanced functionality limited 16
