Remarks
PivotGrid can use one of the following data providers to communicate with the Microsoft Analysis Services server.
OLE DB for OLAP
Provides basic OLAP binding capabilities.
ADOMD.NET
Offers certain performance gains when compared to OLE DB, and yet allows you to retrieve OLAP member format strings and properties from the server.
XMLA
An open XML-based standard that does not require any data access libraries or data providers to be installed on the client system. Nevertheless, it supports all OLAP features available in OLE DB and ADOMD.NET.
The default data provider for the MVC PivotGrid extension is OLE DB.
