Taming Size and Cardinality of OLAP Data Cubes over Big Data

摘要

In this paper, we provide three authoritative application scenarios of TPC-H*d. The latter is a suitable transformation of TPC-H benchmark. The three application scenarios are (i) OLAP cube calculus on top of columnar relational DBMS, (ii) parallel OLAP data cube processing and (iii) virtual OLAP data cube design. We assess the effectiveness and the efficiency of our proposal, using open source systems, namely, Mondrian ROLAP server and its OLAP4j driver, MySQL-row oriented relational database management system and MonetDB-a column-oriented relational database management system.
