Cognos Analytics

IBM Cognos Analytics is a reporting tool that allows users to create dimensional reports using relational data. It provides techniques for building queries, focusing reports using filters and prompts, creating visualizations and interactive reports using HTML, distributing reports through bursting, and building advanced dynamic reports using macros and Active Reports. Dimensional reporting concepts like members, sets, tuples, and measures can be used to examine and summarize data.
