  • Patent number: 10268745
    Abstract: An inherited dimension comprises one or more base dimension objects and one or more specialized dimension objects that are stored in a non-transitory volatile or non-volatile computer-readable storage. Each base dimension object of the one or more base dimension objects has a first set of dimension attributes that are common across the plurality of multidimensional datasets. The one or more specialized dimension objects include a specialized dimension object that has a second set of dimension attributes for a particular multidimensional dataset from the plurality of multidimensional datasets. In response to receiving a query that references the dimension and targets the particular multidimensional dataset, a base dimension object and the specialized dimension object are accessed to generate a query result.

    Abstract: Techniques are described for inheritance of dimensional attributes in multidimensional datasets. In some embodiments, an inherited dimension comprises one or more base dimension objects and one or more specialized dimension objects that are stored in a non-transitory volatile or non-volatile computer-readable storage. Each base dimension object of the one or more base dimension objects has a first set of dimension attributes that are common across the plurality of multidimensional datasets. The one or more specialized dimension objects include a specialized dimension object that has a second set of dimension attributes for a particular multidimensional dataset from the plurality of multidimensional datasets. In response to receiving a query that references the dimension and targets the particular multidimensional dataset, a base dimension object and the specialized dimension object are accessed to generate a query result.
