SSAS - Can it do this?Sorry of this is an odd question, but I’m trying to see if SQL Server
Analysis Services can help us out. Basically we want to recommend products to customers based on Three random titles that they have rated highly themselves in the last 3 months Using these 3 titles, Look at others customers who also rated these 3 titles highly, and then provide some more recommendations (that they haven’t already bought). Not rocket science, but quite involved nevertheless. We’re currently doing lots of number crunching, but is this something that we should be turning to SSIS for? We haven’t used SSIS before so I don’t want to spend time looking into it if it’s not really what it’s for.. Many thanks, Andy
