I've noticed that since SQL Server 2012, SSAS's focus has been pretty much exclusively into developing tabular mode. My question is: has anything changed significantly for SSAS Multidimensional mode since SQL Server 2008 R2? I haven't had a chance to take a look at SQL Server 2016 but I'm curious.
DIVIDE in MDX and the ability to get around the 1GB string limit in dimensions. Some under the covers stuff to do with threading: https://blogs.msdn.microsoft.com/psssql/2012/01/31/analysis-services-thread-pool-changes-in-sql-server-2012/
An extended events GUI in 2016 I think.
Slim pickings 😀
