Abstract

A database system for representing data in an external dataset may include a multidimensional database defined by a set of dimensions associated with a respective set of attributes of the data in the external dataset. The multidimensional database may include a set of cells partitioned or otherwise divided into a set of slots. Each slot may be associated with a set of attribute values of the attribute associated with its corresponding dimension. Each cell may store data from the external dataset accessed by aggregating sets of attribute values associated with respective slots of the dimensions of the multidimensional database that define the cell.
