Abstract
A method, apparatus, and article of manufacture for using a relational database management system to support on-line analytical processing (OLAP) systems. A relational database has a fact table and at least one related dimension table. A dimension identifier is received that identifies a data block in a multi-dimensional database. The dimension identifier comprises one or more multi-dimensional member identifiers. Rows are accessed from the fact table through the related dimension tables using the received dimension identifier. Then, the accessed rows are formatted as a data block for the multi-dimensional database.
