Abstract:
Data warehouses are used to store large amounts of data. This data is often used for On-Line Analytical Processing (OLAP) where short response times are essential for on-line decision support. One of the most important requirements of a data warehouse server is the query performance. The principal aspect from the user perspective is how quickly the server processes a given query: "the data warehouse must be fast". The main focus of our research is finding adequate solutions to improve query response time of typical OLAP queries and improve scalability using a distributed computation environment that takes advantage of characteristics specific to the OLAP context. Our proposal provides very good performance and scalability even on huge data warehouses. 1
