Modeling with Information Composer
SAP HANA Information Composer can also be called Information Composer for short. This tool is intended mainly for modeling purposes by power users and authors. Power users are defined as those business users who have the capability to create new reporting elements for themselves, and authors are those users who can additionally share those new reports with other users. This recipe shows us how to create models using Information Composer.
Getting ready
Information Composer can be accessed in the browser by entering a web address. The web address will be similar to the one shown here:
http://<server name>:8080/IC or https://<server name>:8443/IC
To start working with Information Composer, Microsoft Silverlight has to be installed and activated as an add-on to the web browser.
