As sad as it is, there needs to be focus on one way forward - that appears to be tabular. A migration path is needed, but having the two models is confusing and becoming unnecessary. Even if full sup...
Agreed. There are a number of gaps that MD has that Tablular does not, and a few in the other direction as well. Tabular shortcomings when compared to MD: * write-back, * non-leaf writeback, * many-to-many, * unary operators, * several other critical things... Tabular upside compared to MD: * ability to on-the-fly model (add user-defined measures, dimension, granularities, hierarchies), * faster query times so I've heard, * other stuff? By no means an all-inclusive list. All that MS has to do is build out a gateway on top of MD that serves up the MD data as flattened Tabular slices, and there wouldn't be any issue here. Guess I'm just compelled to use Tableau until they get all of this resolved.
