 DATA CUBE & DATA CUBE
CONCEPTS

Is a multidimensional range of values that are generally used to explain the time
sequence of an image`s data.
A data cube in a data warehouse is a multidimensional structure used to store data.
 DATA WAREHOUSE

• Is a type of data management system that is designed to enable and support business intelligence
activities, especially analytics which involves reading large amounts of data to understand
relationships and trends across the data
 REASON

• Data cube was initially planned for the OLAP tools that could easily access the multidimensional
data
• It can also be used for data mining .
• OLAP tools enables to analyze multidimensional data interactively from multiple perspectives.
 DIMENSIONAL

• Is a collection of reference information about a measurable event .

 TYPES OF DATA CUBE

• MULTIDIMENSIONAL DATA CUBE

-it basically helps in storing large amounts of data by making use of multi-dimensional array.
RELATIONAL DATA CUBE
-it basically helps in storing large amounts of data by making use of relational tables.
 BENEFITS OF DATA CUBE

• Increased productivity of an enterprise

• Improve the overall performance and efficiency
• Representation of huge and complex data sets get simplified and streamlined
• Huge data base and complex SQL queries are also manageable
 DISADVANTAGES

• Building the data cubes can be long , slow process as cubes can aggregate information from
multiple sources
• Limitation of data fields
• You may not be looking at real time data
• Cubes must be optimized for performance
• Cubes are not designed to be a data repository in data warehouse
