Opening Up OLAP

Although there is still much progress to be made, OLAP software is poised to enter the mainstream of enterprise
decision-support software and take its place in a well-integrated business intelligence architecture. According to Nigel
Pendse and Richard Creeth, the authors of the OLAP Report (www.olapreport.com),>>>>>>> the market for OLAP software
continues to grow at a clip of 40 percent per year,<<<<<<< which has postponed what is seen as an inevitable shake-out in the
OLAP server marketplace. Microsoft will certainly put pressure on the weaker players with its late-1998 entry into the
marketplace with an OLAP server that may be either bundled in BackOffice or priced much lower than completing OLAP
servers.>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> However, I believe that when the day of reckoning finally comes, one of the key characteristics of the survivors is
