Abstract: In accordance with the present invention, a system and method for an OLAP engine having dynamic disaggregation is provided. A software engine for accessing data in a database includes a graph generator. The graph generator is operable to traverse a hierarchy of nodes of data. The graph generator generates an equation such that the equation relates a first piece of data stored in a first node to a second piece of data of a second node. The software engine further includes a query engine. The query engine is operable to couple to the database. The query engine receives a request for access to the second piece of data. The query engine creates the second piece of data from the first piece of data and the equation.
