OLTP vs. OLAP • Database is operational • Data is up-to-date • Mostly updates • Need to support high levels of update transactions • Normal form schemas are important • Database is for analysis • Data is historical • Mostly reads • Need to efficiently support complex queries, and only bulk loading of data • Schema optimized for query processing

xOLAP • Multi-dimensional OLAP (MOLAP) • ‘A k-dimensional matrix based on a non relational storage structure.’ [Agrawal et al] • Relational OLAP (ROLAP) • ‘A relational back-end wherein operations of the data are translated to relational queries.’ [Agrawal et al] • Hybrid OLAP (HOLAP) • Integration of MOLAP with ROLAP. • Desktop OLAP (DOLAP) • Simplified versions of MOLAP or ROLAP. • ZOLAP • Speak with your chemist (normally only prescribed for death march victims)
Beware of Data Warehouse Death March Death March projects “use a forced march imposed upon relatively innocent victims, the outcome of which is usually a high casualty rate.” Edward Yourdon, 1997, Death March: The Complete Software Developer’s Guide to Surviving “Mission Impossible Projects” Data Warehouses and Decision Support systems are among the most complex and demanding in the IT world. Failure rates are very high….

Data Warehousing • “A data warehouse is a subject-oriented,integrated, time-variant, and nonvolatile collection of data in support of management’s decision-making process.” —W. H. Inmon
OLAP Operations • Roll up (drill-up): summarize data • by climbing up hierarchy or by dimension reduction • Drill down (roll down): reverse of roll-up • from higher level summary to lower level summary or detailed data, or introducing new dimensions • Slice and dice: • project and select • Pivot (rotate): • reorient the cube, visualization, 3D to series of 2D planes. • Other operations • drill across: involving (across) more than one fact table • drill through: through the bottom level of the cube to its back-end relational tables (using SQL)
