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.
