DB2 OLAP Server Installation Guide

Chapter 10. Setting up the sample applications

This chapter describes how to set up the sample applications for DB2 OLAP Server and DB2 OLAP Integration Server.

DB2 OLAP Server offers four sample applications. These sample applications are based on The Beverage Company (TBC), a fictional company that manufactures and sells soft drink products.

• The main application used in the documentation is called Sample. It contains three databases: Basic, Interntl, and Xchgrate. The latter two contain specific features corresponding to the currency conversion option.
• The second application, called Demo, contains one database, Basic, which is referred to in the Technical Reference.
• The third application, called Samppart, is the first of two applications designed to show the features of Partitioning. Samppart contains a Company database that is the target of a partitioned database.
• The fourth application, called Sampeast, is the second of two applications designed for Partitioning. Sampeast contains an East database that is the source of data for a partitioned database.

DB2 OLAP Integration Server offer a sample application that contains these features:

• A database for a fictitious company called The Beverage Company (TBC)
• A sample OLAP model and metaoutline created from the TBC database
• A Hybrid Analysis-enabled OLAP model and metaoutline (for DB2 Universal Database and Oracle users only)
• A special OLAP Metadata Catalog to store the sample OLAP models and metaoutlines and any additional OLAP models and metaoutlines that you create using the sample data
