Can PowerPlay/Analysis Studio read a cube built by something other than Transformer?Ã, E.g. If I build a cube in SQL Server using DTS or in an Oracle 10G database using Oracle's tools.
In other words can I through away Transformer if I have another cube building tool available?

... I suppose ... Could Composite Server be leveraged ? Will have to try, I guess.

Blue,
I have been successful at pointing Series 7 to a MS SQL Analysis built cube for use in PPES.
Given that C8 allows you to build and execute (live) cubes directly against your database (not a point in time cube build anymore), I wouldnt go off and build cubes in Oracle or MS SQL but start new cubes in C8.
Cheers,
