Recording from the SQL Server Day in Belgium:

DAX is Microsoft's new multidimensional calculation language. At the moment it's only used in
PowerPivot, but in the future it's likely to have an important role in other
corporate BI products from Microsoft, so it's something that all BI consultants
need to learn now. In this session we'll learn about the basic concepts of the
language and see how it can be used to implement a number of common business
calculations.
