Siebel Analytics Server Administration Guide > Introduction >

How This Guide Is Organized

---

This document is organized into chapters and appendices, each devoted to a particular aspect of the Siebel Analytics Server environment. Siebel administrators should read the chapters and appendices that will apply to their implementation.

The first two chapters are introductory in nature. They describe how the Siebel Analytics Server, the core component of Siebel Analytics, fits into decision support, Web-based, and client/server decision-making applications, explain some of the benefits of the product, describe the main components of the product, and discuss data modeling concepts that are necessary to create business models for use with the Analytics server.
Subsequent chapters describe the process of creating and modifying a Siebel Analytics metadata repository, and how to use the Siebel Analytics Server Administration Tool to handle administrative issues and procedures for the Analytics server.
Other chapters explain how to set up and maintain the query caching subsystem, how to set up a DSN to connect to the Analytics server from other applications and third party tools, how to use variables in a repository, how to set up XML data sources, and security considerations.
