Online Analytical Processing (OLAP)
• Supports multidimensional data analysis
–Viewing data using multiple dimensions
–Each aspect of information (product, pricing, cost, region, time period) is different dimension
–Example: How many washers sold in the East in June compared with other regions?
• OLAP enables rapid, online answers to ad hoc queries
Practical:
OLAP supports multidimensional data analysis, enabling users to view the same data in different ways using multiple dimensions. Each aspect of information— product, pricing, cost, region, or time period—represents a different dimension. OLAP enables users to obtain online answers to ad hoc questions such as these in a fairly rapid amount of time, even when the data are stored in very large databases, such as sales figures for multiple years
