Although there are differing opinions about whether OLAP should be considered a technology or ideology. After all, OLAP can be imagined as a complex multi-dimensional cube, and as ordinary cross-tables (cross-tabs). All of this can be called rapid data analytics. Traditionally, OLAP has been considered a technology to streamline large amounts of data for statistical analysis. Often The OLAP system is called cubes. As we know the cube has three dimensions: length, width and height. Therefore, the cube is a three-dimensional figure. It's the same with the data. For example, data on the number of goods sold by each company manager can be presented as a matrix (cross-table). This is a two-dimensional set of data - in the headlines of the lines - the name of the product, in the headlines of columns - the names of managers. But if we add anoth ...
