NQL and OLAP models
We noticed that natural querying and some other cool features (Time Intelligence, Clustering, Outlier analysis,…) don't work with OLAP models, but only within Pyramid-created models. Is there any plan for Pyramid 2018 to also develop these features to work with OLAP models?

Hi Uroš Zdešar
Pyramid-created models (IMDB) are just one example of a SQL datasource, so in fact, anything you can do against IMDB, you can do against any other SQL datasource.
The exception to this rule is an OLAP datasource which include Microsoft SSAS cubing technologies, and Microsoft Tabular. Both these data sources have a slightly slimmer set of features. Usually, because of the restrictions of the datasource, it either makes it much harder to implement or sometimes impossible.
That being said, "Time Intelligence", which you specifically included in your list, does work on OLAP data sources.Kind Regards,
Yakov.
