In this chapter, we progressed towards more complex concepts of information modeling. We learned how to create restricted measures and restricted columns. We went further in to the concepts of filters, variables and input parameters and created our own variables. Once the basic building blocks for calculation view were ready, we learned how to create the calculation view graphically. We also learned about analytical privileges and used them to restrict access to the calculation view that we created.
In the next chapter, we will learn about hierarchies and text search in SAP HANA; how to create and use them in our data models for real-time analytics. We will learn how to make use of hierarchies in business intelligence reporting to display characteristics across aggregated nodes. We will explore the benefits of text search in data mining and extracting useful information out of huge amounts of data.
