---------------------------------
Summary: Enable deriving dimensions on non PK/FK
Key: KYLIN-1313
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KYLIN-1313
Project: Kylin
Issue Type: Improvement
Reporter: hongbin ma
Assignee: hongbin ma
currently derived column has to be columns on look table, and the derived host
column has to be PK/FK(It's also a problem when the lookup table grows every
large). Sometimes columns on the fact exhibit deriving relationship too. Here's
an example fact table:
(dt date, seller_id bigint, seller_name varchar(100) , item_id bigint, item_url
varchar(1000), count decimal, price decimal)
seller_name is uniquely determined by each seller id, and item_url is uniquely
determined by each item_id. The users does not expect to do filtering on
columns like seller name or item_url, they just want to retrieve it when they
do grouping/filtering on other dimensions like selller id, item id or even
other dimensions like dt.
