Course Overview

Designing Business Intelligence Solutions with Microsoft SQL Server 2014 is an advanced course by Microsoft tailored for BI architects, data warehouse developers, and senior database administrators responsible for designing enterprise-scale BI infrastructures. Aligned with Exam 70-467, this course equips professionals with the expertise to architect robust BI solutions using SQL Server 2014 technologies. It covers critical domains including BI infrastructure planning, data warehouse design, ETL solution architecture, and analytical data modeling. With over 75% of Fortune 500 companies relying on Microsoft SQL Server for mission-critical data systems at the time of its release, mastering these skills ensured high market relevance and employability across industries requiring scalable business intelligence platforms.

The curriculum provides in-depth hands-on experience with core Microsoft BI tools, including SQL Server Integration Services (SSIS), SQL Server Analysis Services (SSAS), SQL Server Reporting Services (SSRS), and PowerPivot for Excel. Students work within a Windows Server-based lab environment to design and implement a complete BI solution, starting with dimensional modeling and ETL pipeline development using SSIS, progressing to building multidimensional and tabular models in SSAS, and culminating in interactive report creation with SSRS and SharePoint Server integration. A key project involves designing an end-to-end analytics platform that extracts data from heterogeneous sources, loads it into a star schema data warehouse, and delivers actionable insights through Excel and SharePoint-based dashboards, simulating real-world enterprise deployment scenarios.

This course prepares candidates for the MCSE: Data Management and Analytics certification, a globally recognized credential that validates advanced expertise in enterprise data solutions. Certified professionals have demonstrated capabilities that align with high-demand roles such as BI Architect and Data Warehouse Manager, positions that commanded average salaries exceeding $81,000 annually in the United States.
