Do Linked Cubes and Distributed Cubes exist in SQL 2012?

Hi All,

The Microsoft page for exam 70-466 lists some of the subject matter as "implement linked cubes, implement distributed cubes."  I can't seem to find this functionality available in SQL 2012, nor can I find any documentation.  Do these exist in 2012?  I assume Microsoft's page has some, er, inconsistencies, but I know nothing about these subjects so I'm not sure.

Thanks,
Eric

This functionality definitely exists in SQL 2012. The exam content goes through multiple layers of internal and external reviews, it'd be pretty unlikely for the exam outline to list a topic that does not exists. But if you are searching for that exact term - "linked cubes" - you probably won't find anything. 

You create the linkages at the measure group level: https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms174899(v=sql.110).aspx

and at the dimension level: https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms175648(v=sql.110).aspx
