Multidimensional Data Analysis Techniques –The processing of data in which data are viewed as part of a multidimensional structure. –Multidimensional view allows end users to consolidate or aggregate data at different levels.

Multidimensional Data Analysis Relational databases contains lists of records whose information is organised into fields and is based on a row and column data format(one dimensional). However some relational tables where there is more than a one-to-one relationship between the fields lends itself to multidiensional represtation. Murali Mohan Rath

Relational OLAP Relational On-Line Analytical Processing (ROLAP) provides OLAP functionality by using relational database and familiar relational query tools. Extensions to RDBMS
Multidimensional data schema support within the RDBMS
Data access language and query performance optimized for multidimensional data
Support for very large databases Murali Mohan Rath

Multidimensional Data Schema Support within the RDBMS Normalization
of tables in relational technology is seen as a stumbling block to its use in OLAP systems. DSS
data tend to be non-normalized, duplicated, and pre-aggregated. ROLAP
uses a special design technique to enable RDBMS technology to support multidimensional data representations, known as star schema. Star
schema creates the near equivalent of a multidimensional database schema from the existing relational database Murali Mohan Rath

LIMITATIONS The real limitation of OLAP databases is
almost always the number of cells and not the number of dimensions.
As the number of dimensions increases the number of cells increases expotentially so a 16 dimension database with 5 members in each has 152 billion cells.
Most OLAP servers reach their limit in cell
numbers before they hit their dimensions limit Murali Mohan Rath

CONCLUSION
In essence OLAP technology is fast, flexible data summarisation and analysis.
OLAP servers are a superior technology for Business Intellgence applications.
OLAP servers and relational databases can work in harmony to create an environment that delivers data quickly to perform the analysis needed to make the best business decisions. Murali Mohan Rath
