Definition

A MOLAP Cube is a Basis Cube, whose data is physically stored in a MOLAP store.

Note

The description MOLAP Root Aggregate is used synonymously. This description reflects the fact that a MOLAP aggregate is treated like an aggregate.

Use

A MOLAP Cube is derived directly from an InfoCube (See MOLAP Aggregate). Data consistency is secured when constructing additional aggregates and when requesting queries in the base of a uniform MOLAP store. This is because a MOLAP Cube usually contains the same data as the basis InfoCube.

Structure

A MOLAP Cube is constructed from a BW InfoCube using specific rules. Note the following restrictions: The BW InfoCube must not;

The total of all characteristics, navigation attributes and hierarchies must not be greater than 127.
