I received a number of questions when I attended KScope. A lot of people had a tough time wrapping their head around the fact that using Groovy could actually reduce cost and development time, and significantly decrease the effort to maintain an application. The feedback I get on my lightning lessons has been overwhelmingly positive. […]

I have thought about creating classes that are 30 minutes or less on critical topics and valuable technical concepts. I have heard from so many people that even if I gave them my training for free they wouldn’t have time to take it. Make a name for yourself today. Make your life better today. And […]

One year ago, I decided to release my first training course on Groovy. A year later, I want to thank everybody for supporting me and celebrate everybody that has joined the Groovy revolution with me.

My 20+ years of using Essbase I was told, and had no reason not to believe, only stored numbers. We obviously have lists and with Planning it appears we have text. If you aren’t familiar with how this works, the strings are stored in the Planning repository and the index is stored in Essbase. If […]

There are benefits to moving to Hybrid, but there are also some challenges. The content of this post is not around the pros and cons, but the fact that you can upgrade your environment to use it. If you find it isn’t for you, you can “downgrade” back to BSO. The flexibility provides everybody the […]
