Abstract

See full text

Systems, methods, and computer products that include an automated discovery process that discovers useful metadata objects from an intelligent starting point thereby generating at least one multidimensional model for OLAP analysis. Further, generation of the intelligent starting point may be derived by use of a multidimensional analysis program that analyzes the results of query mining and query analysis. The preferred embodiment of the present invention determines whether metadata useful for OLAP analysis exists by evaluating patterns found in the queries. In addition to using the starting point derived from the results of query mining and query analysis, the preferred embodiment of the present invention may also limit search parameters to narrow the scope of searching for an intelligent starting point and thereby both increase the probability of producing an accurate cube multidimensional model and increase the efficiency of determining the intelligent starting point.
