This paper discusses a specific implementation of using OLAP technology on log analysis, in particular by using the Seagate Analysis OLAP client. The Seagate Analysis OLAP client, which is released free to registered users since February 2000, snuggly fits into this role for log analysis. This tool is free and powerful enough to be the first step for practitioners to explore OLAPs utility. We will discuss how OLAP alleviates the log analysis problem, basic ideas on OLAP and related database design concepts. There is also an iteration through a mini project that uses the Seagate Analysis on Windows NT Event Logs.
